Graphic design project one.




      The past couple days my e-comm class has been working on requiring the skill of illustrator. We followed step by step on how to make a pencil and a can as seen on the right. I had problems finding a good shade of yellow so I kinda messed with it a little bit.
     after we finished the main pencil we made our own we; well I'm weird so I kinda twisted it around and gave it a red a black coloring like a black widow spider don't ask why I just did. So that was the theme really for my own pencil a twisted pencil with the black and red.
     Finally we got to make our own little thing again my weirdness kicked in and I made a duck looking thing and gave some extra stuff around I believe it had to do with something about me well I guess I can call myself a quack so I added that in. Really in that last thing I just wanted to mess with different tools and see what can be made off using only 3 shapes yes that picture is full of twisted stars, rectangle, and a circle. Well that was our first illustrator project this year and can't wait to do more.

first Video blog 2015

     In this project I had to watch and create a storyboard for a video about a girl that lifted weights.  In order for me to do this I must go scene by scene and pausing at each transition so I can see the sequence change and so I can draw what is being shown in the image.
     The story that was told was about a girl but she wasn't one of those everyday girls; Michaela lifted weights with her dad as her coach. She held many records at her school as a power lifter making her father proud. This was told in a manner to show how her family loved her no matter what weather it was in the kitchen or on the court lifting.
     Something that I would take out of this video would be the way they used the six shot sequence and how it flowed smoothly and for future project the control of always having sound weather it was from the background or someone talking. Something that could be approved in this video is keeping the camera still there were points where I thought there was a shake. Other for that the video was great it had a very good story behind it, great transition shots , and really good voice overs.

What is Graphic Design?

Graphic design is an art that is edited by another persons imagination for advertisements, magazines, or books. Graphic design can be found everywhere on buildings, containers, furniture pretty much everything. Most pictures you will see have been photoshopped which is another type of graphic design. Without graphic design this world would be boring and people wouldn't know what the heck anything was just picture the world without graphic design look at stores they wouldn't have a name it would just be blank; see without graphic design our world would just be lost. Graphic design is important.

Final Blog Project.


So in our group we all had something to do for every transition. We would all put in our ideas and put them together to make something big.

 I was in charge of the banner, the animation, the store, and I came up with the floating pencil idea in our video. Sadly I was gone for the editing process in the video so I am unable to post my version.


Next time we do a project like this I will probably need to make sure what events I have coming up so then I don't fall behind and try to get ahead in the project so when I get back there wont be to much to do that I wont be able to get it done. If I was to do something the same it would most likely be trying new things on the illustrator because cool things happen on accident. Accidents to me tend to always make things have a cooler affect like when I used the gradient tool and blended it with something else it made this cool kind of color that would of been great if it was in our color scheme.
