water color transfer prints



water color transfer prints

the process 

When we were assigned this project we were asked to use one of our previous projects and print it out. Then we were asked to water color a piece of paper that we would later put our project on. When those steps were both complete we had to mod podge the picture design side down so that the pictures ink would print on the water color. Then we had to use a squeegee and get all of the extra mod podge and air bubbles out from the picture. We had to wait for the mod podge to dry before we scratched the paper off. Two days later we used water to scratch the paper off of the water color. Once we finished that our picture was onto of our watercolor. 

using tools

I used a lot of new tools for this project.  I had only worked with mod lodge once before this but I have never used it on a project like this. I had also never worked with a. squeegee before but I will definitely use it in the future because it was very helpful and got most of the bubbles out.  I also have never used the technique of using water to peel the picture off or this printing technique. 

final product

I was very pleased with the final product of this project. I was surprised on how nicely the ink printed on the water color. When we started this project I thought that it wasn't going to turn out. I could have done better as far as pealing the paper off and making the print look smoother but it still looks great. I hope we get to do another project like this in the future.

self performance review

Self performance review Project 1 For one of my projects we were assigned to take ten pictures and then put then together to create a panorama. I chose to use pictures that I took of New York over spring break. The project took around a week to complete. I faced a few challenges with my design. It was hard to find somewhere to start because I had a lot goin on in my pictures. I found that the pictures I chose had a lot of buildings so I had to include some other pictures I took from the vacation so I would have a variety of pictures in my panorama. Doing this project I learned a lot about photoshop. With putting multiple pictures together you have to make sure they blend. I started to use the blend tool as I put certain pictures together. Sometimes the blend tool wouldn't work so I would use the clone stamp tool to take parts of a picture and put it on the picture next to it. I was told to so...

How to create and print a document

For this assignment we had to make a video about how to create and print a document in thirty seconds. We had two parts to this project. Part A was making a story board including sketches of where the scene would take place and what kind of shot we would be filming in. After we got that approved we took the I pad and took pictures using the main points that we had down on our storyboard. After those pictures were taken we made a google slides showing the pictures we took. We also had to list what type of shot it was and what the actor was doing in the shot. Part B was actually making the video.We used every spot that we had pictures of on our story board and google docs except made those shots into a video. So we had to show more of the transitioning which was mostly walking inbetween our shots. After filming day we uploaded our videos to the computers. We used Adobe premiere pro to put the videos together. We had to do a lot of trimming and adjusting the videos to get it thirty seco...

final blog

graphic design final reflection blog One of my favorite parts about graphic design was making the vector illustrator portrait. For this project we had to choose an image of ourselves, a family member, or a family pet. We then had to choose if we wanted to do an organic vector which is tracing the facial features on the objects face or a low poly geometric vector which is when you make lots of different and tiny triable on the subject. I chose to do the low poly geometric because I felt it would look better on my dog. It took me around two weeks to complete this project. I was gone towards the end of the first week, if I wasn't gone I most likely would have finished the project sooner. I faced a few challenges along the way. At the very beginning of the project I didn't know how big to make the triangles. I decided to do small triangles on my dogs features and bigger triangles on my dogs body. Another challenge I faced was having all of my triangles looking very similar whic...
