Jordan First

JTV graduation project

01.20.06

Something that I thought was worth blogging about is my cousin’s, Khaled Abu Ain’s graduation project for Graphic Design at Philadelphia University, under supervision by Dr. Eyad Alsaker, Professor Mohammad AbdulAl, Dr. Bashar Mardini, Faisal Al Omari, and Dr. Ziad Haddad. The project consists of a whole theme and logo redesign of Jordan TV. Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, Premier, and After Effects were programs that Khaled used through-out his design process.

Before you read my feedback below, I think you should watch the streaming Real Player video of Jordan TV running under the new theme and logo which were used with permission, and for those who have dialup, I’ve put up some screens showing the theme and logo he designed.

Now, while the new theme and logo are definitely much better than Jordan TV’s current too blue theme and logo; better as in more modern, give it the more character that its supposed to have, it still feels too much Royal Jordanian to me, probably because of the red and golden colors along with the Royal crown. Though, Khaled has done a really great job, I’d like to tell him Congratulations in advance for graduating next semister and good luck with the presentation.

** P.S. This is just a graduation project, and not Jordan TV’s official theme nor logo.
