Watercolor Transfer Prints

The Process

First I chose a project and I chose the Pop Art project. I cropped it and made two copies. One is color and one is black and white. I printed them out on the same sheet of paper. Then I cut both of my graphics out. Then I took a piece of water color paper and tore it in half. Then I used water color paint and brushes to paint my water color paper. I decided I wanted one warm colors and the other cold colors. I used blue and purple for my cool colors and I just was making different streaks horizontally with the two colors. I did the same with the other one just with yellow, orange, and yellow. Then I let them dry overnight. After that I took my prints that I printed out earlier and I covered both of my prints with mod podge on the front side. Then I placed it upside down on the water color paper trying to get it centered as close as I can. Then once I did that to both I used a squeegee and I just slid it on the paper to get out the access mod lodge without trying to get it on the water color paper. Then I let it dry overnight. After that I took some water and covered the whole back side of the prints with water and rubbed the paper off to reveal my transfer print. You want it to be as smooth as it can be without any white pieces. Then once you have done that to both you are done! 

Reflection

Overall this project was pretty simple and easy. The part I struggled with was just making the water color look good. One of them I messed up really bad by adding black and the other turned out ok. Also the process was just very long and took days. I do like how my warm colors one turned out and I might try to do it again in the future.

Trailer

Pre-Production For this project we got assigned groups to recreate a movie trailer. My group chose Napoleon Dynamite because it was short, easy and, funny. After we decided on our movie we had to story board and fill out the beat sheet. The hardest part was casting because it was hard to find a time everyone is free or just people who wanted to be in it and fitted the character.  Production We filmed for about a week and a half and getting the school shots was easy and we got those done with fast during school. It was hard to schedule the out of school shots but we got it done.  Post Production New things I learned with premier was editing the speed of a video to have shots slowed down and I also used a filter to make it seem more cinematic. I also used audio effects to try and fix the sound from the wind. That would be one thing I would do differently is to do more research on how to get rid of the wind sound better and fixing the slow motion walking part. I would ...

How To Print Out A Doc. At ONW

width="560"> Pre-Production Our creative process was to name all the steps first on how to create a document and print it out then we looked at all the shots and put them on our story board to see which type of shot would make sense for each scene.Then we each used the iPad to just take pictures of each shot. Then we decided that I would be the actor for the video and Jaidyn would be the director and film.  Filming Like I said before my role was just the actor and I learned that you have to act like the camera isn't there and not pay attention to other things around you. I also helped like place the iPad in the right places and i learned how to make your shots level and use the 3 thirds rule. Editing I also edited the video. I learned how to use premiere pro and how to put the videos together and make sure they make sense so the audience doesn't get confused or it does not look weird. I also learned how to add words onto the video and how to ad...

My Personality Type

About My Personality Type My personality type is an ESTJ. This means that I am extraverted,Sensing,Thinking and Judging. Extravert means that I like being around people and i get more energy when I am around people. I do think this is true. Sensing means I make decisions based on logic and evidence not how I think this should happen. I think this is also true. Thinking means that I use logic for my thinking and I do not really think about feelings. Judging means that I would rather have a plan and know whats going on rather than just winging it. Some famous people that are the same type are Hilary Clinton and Michelle Obama. Some reporters and lots of actors and actresses like Emma Watson. How Well Does This Describe Me I think this describes me pretty well. I am definitely extraverted I hate being by myself I get energy from being around people. I also think the sensing is right too because i never really go with my gut I always pick the most logical or reasonable thing to d...
