Animation Storyboard

I decided to go with a funny short clip for my animation project. To help me out, two of my friends made a short clip displaying a storyline. They are sitting on the bed playing video games when one ask the other if he has any juice. The friend says yes and to check the fridge. Once the other friend gets to the kitchen he realize the other has no juice and the music starts to play.
I plan on using rotoscoping for this project!

Final Portfolio


For our final project we were asked to create a portfolio showing all of our projects in a book form. It was my first time using indesign and I must say the project itself wasn't too difficult. I went to get it printed at Fedex on Dale Mabry and was good to go. I think the hardest part of our last project was making sure the photos were not pixelated. Overall I have learned so much in this class and definitely enjoyed myself. For a girl who isn't great with computer programs, I'd say I think I did a great job in this class. I would definitely recommend this class, and this teacher to others in the future.

Animation

For this project we had to create a 10-15second long animation with a story line. I decided to go with rotoscoping which, took longer overall but I personally think the outcome was great. This short clip shows two friends playing video games. One friend gets thirsty and ask the other if he has any juice. When told there was juice in the fridge the friend walks to the kitchen opens the fridge and sees there is nothing in the fridge at all. I thought it was a funny little clip and I'm very happy with the outcome.

Project: Collage Environment

This project was most special to me because I was given the opportunity to tell a story of my choice. The story I tried to portray was how dangerous the world is today. Having three brothers of my own it scares me to think that they could potentially get hurt, or even worse killed because of police brutality. "It could've been me" are song lyrics from a gospel duo MaryMary.

Project: Magazine Cover

I had a lot of fun with this project It took me some time to get it right, but I finally started getting the hang of things toward the end. The hardest part of this project for me was figuring out hot to cut some part of my images out that I was placing on my magazine cover

Photo manipulation


This assignment, wasn't too bad. I really enjoyed trying to figure out which pictures to use and adding them to different pictures. I had fun with this assignment once I got the hang of it.

Project 2: ASCII


I used my professors concept graph in order to size my project the correct way. I don't think I would have been able to do this project without this graph, it was very very helpful. This was definitely one of the more easier projects for me

Exquisite Corpse

For this project we had to recreate a fictional character drawn in class. I actually had a lot of fun with this project. It was a great project to help with learning the pen and I definitely would love to do more assignments like this one!

Assignment 2: Logo Critique

Choose 5 logos and write an opinionated analysis for them on the blog. 1. This label does not work for me. I can definitely tell the label is fashion oriented but I cannot tell them target audience. Possibly more adult females between the ages of 20-30, judging by the outfit the lady is wearing.I don't really mind the color choices, I think it is nice and simply for the audience. I think this fails as a label because I can not pronounce the label and can not really tell the audience. 2. I love this logo. Just by looking at the logo you can tell it is fashion related with the clothes pin, and mother related with the colors of blue and pink. I did not know it was a fashion blog until after I clicked on the website but I knew the target audience was mothers who enjoyed fashion. The logo is nice and simple and memorable. 3. This logo does not work for me. Yes it is simple and easy to read but I have no idea what they are selling or who the audience is. I do like the colors black and gray because its simple and clear but overall I think this logo is a fail. 4. I love this label. I think they hit this one dead on. I know exactly what they are selling and who their audience is. The colors are appealing to the eye and the label is memorable. Short and to the point. 5. This is one of my favorite logos. The Chanel logo is known all around the world. You cannot tell the audience really and but some could say its a mature audience because the logo is black letters and simple. It does not look like a kid logo. I definitely feel like this logo works for this company though.
