TypoSCENE

Day One

Day Three

Day Two

Last Day

In this assignment, we were required to create a scene for our previous project, TypoObject, using the envelope distort tool in Adobe Illustrator. Colors were a requirement, so I recolored the house and doghouse, and added a lawn, mailbox, driveway, and tree. In order to create the lawn, I used repetition when I made numerous copies of a patch of "grass" that I created. My final product, as you can see, is my recolored house and doghouse, with a driveway, sun, lawn, mailbox, fence, and tree. I would say that my final product does not accurately represent my sketch, because I didn't add a second house, instead, I added a tree.

Apocalyptic Photomerge

Day Three

Day One

Day Two

Day Four

Last Day

We had the privilege of choosing what we wanted to create for this assignment. I chose to do a photo-merging project. I used an 8.5x11 document in Adobe Photoshop. My final product is basically a city in an apocalyptic state, however, there is a hand holding a "special" pair of glasses that show what the city would look like if there wasn't an apocalypse, or if a certain destroyed object was restored. I used both color and contrast to show what areas were in an apocalyptic state, and which appeared "restored" from the glasses. I would say that my final product does not accurately represent my sketch because there were many details that I added in my final product that I didn't initially include in my sketch.

ZOMBIFY

Day Two

Original

Day One

Last Day

We were expected to "zombify" an image of our self using Adobe Photoshop. We basically had to find parts from various images over the internet and color burn them to our photos so that they fit. My final product is me with one eye, staring at the monitor. There are bloodstains on the wall behind me, including a bloody hand print, and my throat and mouth are clearly exposed. One element of art that I used was definitely color, when I was deciding on which layer style to chose, I took into consideration how dark that layer style would make that particular part of the image. One example of how I used contrast can be seen on the walls in the background. Because the bloody hand print and "help me" image were dark red, I chose to put both images on the lightest part of the wall so that it can easily be seen. Fortunately, we were not required to make a sketch for this project.

TypoObject House - Last Day

In this assignment, we were required to create a 3-D object using typography. We had to create it in Adobe Illustrator in an 8.5x11 document and could only use black and white, and change the opacity. My final product is a 3-Dimensional house, bushes, and a doghouse. To basically add contrast, I changed the opacity of many elements of the house such as the house itself, the door, and even the shadows on the side of the house and the doghouse. Because I changed the opacity, it actually created a grayish color. There was also a high amount of repetition of words to create certain shapes. Although I removed some elements of my house and added details (such as the shadows, a different type of bush, and a doghouse) I would say that my house does accurately depict my sketch because both houses are facing the same way, and both look somewhat similar to each other.
