nature man project

Nature man project 

ideas
As soon as the project was assigned to us I wanted to use water and thing of nature. I couldn't figure out how to make the water part look good. So I ended up just using the pictures that were in the server. The pictures were of trees and outdoor things so it was still close to my original idea. I didn't want the pictures to look exactly like they did in the server so I tried to change them up a bit. I added few effects and layers to make the pictures look more original. 

the process 
When I was doing this project I was thinking that I wanted my project to look subtle and not as bright. I really wanted the pictures to blend and not have a huge contrast between the pictures. I started with the hair because I really wanted the hair to be the focus of the picture. so I had a bigger contrast between the jacket and his hair. Th I did the jacket and the little v inside the jacket and had those blend together so the hair could stand out. 

using tools
I used blending modes on the jacket and the shirt under the jacket to make it look subtle. I also used blending on the edges of the hair so it would blend with the white background. I used adjustment layers on certain pictures and the overall project. I changed the coloring of the rock but I didn't change the coloring of the roots and the trees because I like their natural coloring. After that I added shadow, highlight, and contrast layers to the whole picture to make the layers come together. I also changed the opacity of the layers as I created. 

end result
My end result did not turn out like I was wanting it to. I know that it wasn't going to right after I decided to use the pictures in the server instead of my original idea. I did like how I made the pictures in the server look different in my project. I am happy with project even though the pictures were my plan b. if I were to do this project again to improve it I would try to find even more pictures and have more backup plans for my original plan.

On the first day we got our teams and started thinking of ideas that we could draw that would symbolize each one of us. But the symbols had to sort of have the same theme throughout the drawing. So we each came up with four ideas that we could use. Some were similar and some not at all. For my symbols I chose a red rose which means promise, a sun which I think means happy, a tree for nature, hearts for love, and an American flag for USA. To be similar we all tried to do nature related things but like I said before some were a little off topic. On day two our groups started sketching the things we wanted to draw on paper. Some things that people chose they didn't like anymore so they changes some symbols. What I did is I had a few symbols from the day before and I added some so that I could fill all of my space up. I We also had to decide how we were going to draw all of our symbols on the ground. We wanted to be able to tell that we all had different ideas so we divided our sq...

ab sequence

In this project we learned even more about using the six shots while filming. This video could be longer than the video we filmed for the creating a document, so we had a lot more time. Since we had more time we had to switch our angle of the shot more often. Because if you watched a video and all the shots were taken at the same angle it would be boring. In this project we had our character going all over the place where in the other one our character was only in the library. So we had more action in this video which was much more fun to film! When me and my other three partners were brainstorming and sketching for this project we had so many ideas that it was hard to narrow it down to one big idea! The first and biggest thing we had to figure out was where our characters would end up. Because we didn't want to be on one side of the school then have to find enough stopping points to get to the other side of the school and still have the viewer know where we were going.  We edi...

typography anatomy

Typography project   The project We did this project so we could learn about different fonts and how there are heights for certain parts of the letters. Also that parts of the letters are called something specific, they don't just have the basic shape that you think they would have. We also learned how to make dashed lines and arrows on illustrator so that you could really see what part was where. What we learned We learned a lot during this project, most of it I stated in the paragraph above. But these specific things I really had to focus on because they were things that were apart of my name. These things are a bowl, crossbar, aperture, descender, shoulder, diagonal stroke, counter, finial, stem, and a serif. These were all things used to identify parts of my letters when using this font. We also learned about  the sizing of letters like uppercase, x height, and the base line. Those are three heights that my letters hit. How was the project  The project ove...
