Tourtle
Who Is Ian?
Ian Palzer is like, a guy, I guess? Doer of Graphic Design, Video Editing, Art, Amateur Game Development, and a lot more. I put 'amateur' before game development, but honestly all those skills are amateur. The point its though, I have an interest in those topics! And as long as I have an interest, I'll keep doing them, and keep getting better at them.
​
So, invest in me now, as at these rates I'll be infinitely powerful in another twenty years. Or, at least, I'll have a couple more things to list on the website.
Wait, Who Is Tourtle?
​
Tourtle is the brand name of Ian Palzer's design, which has been used in a variety of ways in a variety of places. There's a Tourtle account on about half of social media sites, credit to my Web Technologies class. Tourtle also appears in a lot of my work, especially Graphic Design work, due to his ease of addition and his likable style.
​
Tourtle is a simplified image of a turtle, you may recognize from where, that's also purely black and white. Simplicity in shapes and colors is a style I enjoy a lot, as seen most evidently in my tea project, but is present in even works like the Saturday album. Tourtle represents that, as well as being a recognizable brand, so his use is nearly guaranteed.
​
Except, I did avoid using him during the entirety of this semester. Uh, why? Well, I had a lot of good ideas for our projects, and those ideas stood on their own without shoehorning in a brand. Sometimes the best use of a good brand is knowing when not to use it, and let things stand on their own. Sometimes, I'm just Ian.
