BW to Color

 

My original image (above) was taken by my partner at a gala for her work. I was holding an old fashioned and feeling a little bit tipsy. I chose this image because I really like how my suit was fitting me, and it was the only image of myself I had taken over the weekend. I liked using a lot of cool colors because I think they look the best. My "skill" definitely needs to be refined, but after struggling for a week I finally got it.

Animation

Final Product:   Original Images:                             For my animation assignment, I originally wanted to use The Great Wave of Kanagawa as an inspiration, but realized quite quickly that that would be too difficult. I really did not understand how to use this function of photoshop until I came in for extra help. Professor Roundtree helped me so much and I really love how the final project turned out. I chose to focus on water for my GIF because liquids are super kinetic so even just looking at a still image, one feels a sense of motion. I was not influenced by other GIFs either.  Original Inspiration:

Postcard

  My postcard was inspired by where I am originally from. I lived in Illinois prior to moving to Florida and I constantly dream of going back. Hence the "Thinking of you..." message. I put that on the back of the card, and I chose the yellow text to draw attention to the word "Chicago" which is done in the colors of their flag. The back of the card is pretty standard and can be seen on numerous other postcards. I liked this location because I have walked around this lake many times with my sister and her dog at the time. I basically am just really homesick for the city, and this was a way I could incorporate it into my work.

Business Card

 Sketches:  Final Products: Artist Statement:  This was an incredibly difficult project for me to accomplish because I was not here to learn how to do the business card that week of class. I was in Kansas City for a volleyball tournament, and when I got back the class was already working on the final project. With this project, I tried to make it seem that I had a film business in the selling of discs. This was because in my other class we had a project where I incorporated physical media into my work. The business card was also more difficult than the Postcard assignment because the only background with business card I have is the scene from American Psycho  (2000). I didn't like how my second card looks very similar to McDonald's as well.
