Portfolio

Creating my portfolio brought back many memories.  It made me very thankful for my patience and creativity.  At times, I wanted to give up, and stop, but I never did in any one of these projects even the most tedious ones.  I'm so proud of myself for putting in all my hard work and creating some pretty amazing stuff.  With this semester coming to an end, I want to continue the work ethic this class made me achieve.  I want to say thank you to Santiago for pushing me, and becoming proud of my work.

Animation

  This animation project was made with Adobe Photoshop.  This was by far one of the most tedious and challenging projects I have ever done.  I took videos of myself doing yoga, put them into 300 frames, and drew, outlined, and colored in each and every frame.  We also added music to them, which I really liked.  Since it is finals week, and I am very stressed I chose to make my project with yoga and relaxing sounds.  I am proud of myself for finishing the semester strong.

Autoscopy Helping Hand

My autoscopy project has a deep meaning behind it, which made it very valuable to me.  I made this in Adobe Photoshop.  We had to take a photo of ourselves and twist it and edit it to tell a story.  I have dealt with anxiety and depression for a while now, so I wanted to do something with this topic.  I sat in my shower with the water running down my face and then edited it with a dark color palette.  I added more droplets of water and a large scale hand in front of my face to show no matter how lonely you may be, there might be help right in front of you.  This project was very rewarding to me because of how meaningful it was to me.  

Multiplicity

  For the this multiplicity project, when I heard we had to place ourselves in a space 6 different times, I just knew I had to use my kitten, Zara.  She was definitely a pain to keep still especially in her cowgirl hat and mermaid costume, but it was really fun and cute in the end.  I used Adobe Photoshop for this and am happy with my execution.  I also added shadows to make it look more realistic.

Euphoria Somewhere

For this project, we used Adobe Photoshop to place ourselves into the scene of a show/film/picture.  First of all, Euphoria is one of my favorite shows, so this was an easy choice.  I added my original picture to the blog to show my process.  I did my makeup specific to the scene, and it was a lot of fun.  I played with purple eyeshadow, purple highlight on my face and chin, and even used little diamonds around my eyes.  I turned off all of my lights and had one blue light and one purple to create the original photo.  I am extremely happy with the outcome, and the process I took to make this was definitely the most fun.  

Black and White to Color

  For this project, I used Adobe Photoshop to turn a selfie into three different color palettes.  I had to outline and create masks for each individual part of the photo, which was very time consuming.  Although it looks extremely unrealistic, and creepy, it is kind of cool, especially knowing the work that came out of it.  I really enjoy my last color palette the best just because I think the colors compliment each other well.  

The Future IS Female Poster

This may be one of my favorite projects I created.  I used Adobe Illustrator to create this.  My mind making this was that I wanted to chose a picture of me looking fierce, confident, and strong.  Step two was to pick out a color palette that would be very feminine.  When creating this I started thinking of quotes that would fit a strong picture of a woman with stereotypical feminine colors.  I found the quote "the future is female" and knew it would be perfect.  I was meticulous in my fonts and colors.  I couldn't have been more proud of how this turned out.
