Book Cover

This project is a project that came from one of our substitutes at Huntington North. He had asked Mr. Manco to have us students make a book cover for his out coming book called The One Minute Message. He asked that we included a Double Helix strand in the cover and that we included four words onto the double helix. He also asked that the color theme lasted throughout the whole cover. So that is what I did.

Movie Poster

For this project we had to create a poster using real life images we took and had to place variations of text and colors to set off our genre. Adding extras like release date, actors names, and the rating all could have made the movie poster more life like.

Cereal Box

The object of this project was to create a cereal box by drawing out cartoons. We first had to sketch out cartoons of three people, three animals and then our maskcot. I choose to use a monkey as my maskcot because I absolutly love them. The monkey on the cereal box is one I drew and scanned in, the bowl I also made in adobe illustrator. After I made my bowl I made my cereal pieces using bananas and monkeys. After I got my maskcot in and my bowl done I made my background using a gradient and stamps, afterwards I placed in my title and quote.

Prom Poster

For the prom poster this assignment was more for us to have something to do but did end up getting graded. This is the prom poster that I choose to be graded but mix-ups happened and a different one instead got graded, but with this I found a cool picture that represented Central Park since that is the theme for Prom of 2011 and I changed a bunch of settings on this photo so it could be claimed as mine. I made it so that it was becoming night time and so that the colors seemed to be more real instead of being unreal. Than I choose a font that I thought looked really sweet and professional. Than I typed out my title and changed it to fit the picture. After that I added the required information also in a text I thought to be sweet and professional, than I added a gradient to the font to try to give it an effect of a sun set because that is what I thought fit the Photo.

Below: Other Blow-off prom poster

This prom poster is just something I did because I had extra time. This product I did not believe to be a good piece of art work. First off this poster did not meet all the requirements, becuase it is missing information. Second off this is an amature piece of work becuase it has to much going on in it with the ugly colored text, the hearts that really don't go with the idea of prom and with the music notes that are randomly scattered serving no perpose. The only out come to this poster I truely admire is the stamps of the people and how the act as they are walking down the path.

Silhouette

This project was the Silhouette project. For this I got three posed pictures taken, in which to I had to cut out and make into the background. I choose a main picture in which I did not cut it out and placed it in the center of my piece. I choose red, black, and white as my color scheme because red is my favorite color and plus the colors went with my outfit. I choose to do a gradient in the background and tried to make them work to where I would blend into it. With my silhouettes I choose also to do a gradient but in a different setting and than I added an outline to more clearly define them, afterwards I placed stamps all around the piece to reflect on the things I enjoyed.

Imagination

For this project we were to choose a favorite past book and were to create that setting around us. We we to take photos of us holding a book and than place characters for the book we choose all around us and into the book also, to make it look sort of like a pop-up book.

Mosaic

For this project we had to take a photo and break it into 36 1in. boxes after we broke our picture down we changed each box using filters to make them look different.

15 Minutes

In this project we took a head shot photo and minipulated it into four different layers all having a different color scheme. The first top left hand photo was changed using a monochromatic scheme by changing the hue saturation. The second right top hand photo ws changed using a complementary scheme. The bottom left hand photo was used as a split-complementary scheme. The last photo was changed with a triadic scheme in which I choose the primary colors of red, blue, and yellow.

Bottle Cap

This is the first assignment for this semester in digital design. For this assignment we used a picture of a heart off the internet; took it into photoshop and made it our own, we had to make a binding circle around it so that way we could see how it would look when it got hole-punched out. We needed to make a circle around it that way we didnt have anything important get cut out, we also had to create and make a banner, and then had to put text into the banner. With adding text we were suppose to warp the text that way it would look nice inside of the banner. After we got our picture put together; we printed a copy out, hole-punched it, and glued it into a bottle cap.

Bottle and Label

For this project I used Illustrator. This project was to be treated as if it was a real buisness, I first had to come up with an idea to either change an excisting logo and label or had to creat our own, I than had to draw our ideas out in different forms, after that we got into a groups and exchanged ideas between our pieces. I than had to make a final illistration using illustrator.

Premiere Pro Video Clip

This video was made in premiere pro and after affects. It had to include a title, an imported song, a freeze frame, animated text and of course a video.

Self Portrait

During this project I worked in Adobe Illustrator with a self portrait. For this project I had to outline each part of the photo and than using colors and patterns I created a unified scheme. On a different layer I broke the background into sections and also choose different patterns and colors. I could use the patterns and colors provided by Illustrator but also used my own.

Drip Painting

The object of this project was to use a photo of our selfs and to erase part so when we dripped/sprayed water on an area it would drip and cause an effect. I chose to have mine drip downward to create a sort of winged effect. This project took my four trys to actually get it to look in a way that pleased my eye.

Little People

This Project was called little people because we had to use miniturized sized people or build them out of clay and put them into a life size situation. For my project I choose to do drunk driving to show the effects it causes and by doing this I showed that by drinking and driving you are risking a crash and your life. In my photo I had a car with my little person crashing into a life sized beer bottle. The effect of the scene was a little difficult because it took many shots to figure how I wanted to exactly portray the photo and how the light setting needed to be portrayed too.

Inspiration

This Project was done by picking a subject that we thought was harmful in the U.S., I choose to do sexual harrassment and what I did was found hands to shape a persons face. These hands are placed on a young lady's face because most harrassment is toward ladies. Though men and women both can be harrassed and harrass. This is why I used both men and women's hands. This project did turn out how I wanted it to although the background is not exactly the color I had imagined.

Push Pin Design

This project was to take a picture of a known person and to create a pixilated image using only the colors red, yellow, and blue. This project was for digital design and was done so if it won a vote of most liked that it would than be created into an actual push pin design.

Avatar Video

This a video of my avatar from digimi.com, I personally think its cool that you can upload a photo of yourself and that will be your avatar but i do not like the choices they give you to customize yourself. They didn't have much to suit my taste. The aimation video was created using photoshop, thats such a unique ability.
