My 10 Strengths Animation

The Project

So this quarter I started animation. I honestly am not excited for this class but so far its been good. For my first project I used the words from my 10 strengths to make an animation. This first project was pretty simple but i know its probably going to get harder once we really get into it. 


What I learned/ The Process

So for this project I learned how to use photo shop and I learned that Photoshop isn't just for pictures you can also use it to edit and make videos which I thought was pretty cool. So first I typed out all of my words in different sizes and different colors and positions and fonts. So we basically just placed them first. Then the next day I got to start animating them and actually making them move. First we basically had to make point a and point be and the computer would do the rest and make the words move. So you can make the words bounce around and even make them spin which i thought was pretty cool. 

My Thoughts

Overall I thought the project was pretty easy and it was a good one to start with and to just learn the basics of photoshop and animation. I really liked this project probably because it was easy and it didn't take that long to do.

Graphic Design Final

My Favorite Projects Typography Graphic My 3rd favorite project was the typography projects. We found some of our favorite quotes that were meaningful to us and then made a graphic design out of it. The project took about 2 weeks. Some challenges I faced were just trying to find the right color schemes for each of my graphics. Some new skills I learned were how to use different types of pens to create different styles of strokes and textures. I took feedback on my color schemes. I changed the style of the spider because it did not work well when I filled it in with color. I think overall it turned out pretty well I think there is some room for improvement though.  Concert Advertising  My 2nd favorite project was the concert advertisement. What we had to do was pick an artist or musical artist and create a poster, tickets, and poster. This project took about 3 weeks. The challenges I faced were just trying to figure out how to put ever single piece of information ...

House Project

The Project So for this project we used sketchup and we had to make a model of a house we found on houseplans.com. This let us learn sketchup more and how to use different techiques in sketchup. The Process First we had to find a house then we had to look at the measurements of the house. I first just made a big block then I shaped it to look like my house. Then once I just got the shape of my house I added a porch and stairs. Then I started adding windows, doors and stuff like that. Then finally I looked back at my house and just tried to compared them and I added extra details that I forgot to do. Then after that I made an animation of giving a tour of my house.  I used this texture for my porch I used this texture for my house. What I Learned I learned how to use sketchup and different tools and techniques within sketchup. Like the push and pull tool to make a shape different heights. Then I learned how to use the orbital tool to move the camera an...

Short Film

What I Learned I worked on the "Victoria" I learned that sometimes you need to problem solve last minute and I learned how to do that because 2 actors quit on us. We got replacements fast and made an effective schedule that works for everyone. I also learned how to organize everything better to make everything easier.  What I Would Do Differently I would have picked different actors who were reliable the first time so we did not have to spend a lot of time just worrying. I also would have changed the volume in some shots the car scene needed to be quieter and the coffee scene needed the audio of the dialogue to be louder. Also next time to make sure there is no jump cuts.
