Final Project:

For this project, I had to photoshop myself into the scene of a movie. I chose the movie Work It; it is about this girl who needs to get better at dancing to fulfill her dreams of being professional. This group of boys helped her with the process, so I thought it would be perfect to add myself and make it seem like I am dancing with them. I took a self-timer picture of myself, reenacting the same dance move they were doing. I think it worked out well, considering there was an open space between two of the boys. This space seemed a little awkward, so I filled it with myself. This project was enjoyable and challenging. I would say the hardest part was finding the right movie scene and picture of myself. It was just a little bit time consuming to place myself in there after that was done, but it was very doable. I am proud of myself for being able to do this!

    Hi Alexia! I think you did such a good job with the shadow effect on the floor. This makes the project look more real. Also you look really good and proportional to the other people! I also think you chose a really good photo to crop yourself into. Good job!

      Thank you so much Josephine! I tried to fix the shadow of my feet multiple times so that means a lot.

Calligram

Image
 Final Project: Artist Statement: I decided to create a Calligram using my favorite letter, "A." The words inside the "A" consist of a letter I wrote to my future self 20 years from now. At first, I thought I would use a palm tree for this project, but then I decided that I would suffice with this letter because it is very special to me. My name starts with an "A," and I like how it is the alphabet's first letter. I also like the idea of this letter because since I am writing this letter to myself, and I am "A," it will be cute when in 20 years, I read this and see it inside an A because it will be my past self who wrote it and my future self reading it, but the same person. I decided to add something special and make every word that starts with an "a" be a different color, so they stand out, and whenever I wrote my name, I made them pink, so that stands out even more. To create this, I used the compound path tool to be able to writ...

Three Photoshop Videos

First video:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KAmSB5MQxOo This video showed me that to create a new document, you have to press command N. If you double-click the background, you can make it into a new one where you can edit it. You can make different groups of layers, which is pretty cool. You can click and drag an image into the screen and scale it how you want. If you hold control, you can change the angles of the picture. You can change the hues, which changes the colors, and there are many options. It is easy to add blur or pixels to the image you are working on. Vibrance and saturation are very different. If you do not want to make people seem orange, you can change the vibrance but not the saturation. If you save as a PSD, all the layers and edits save altogether.  Second video:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpHiWOBQ4dM Adjustment layers can be changed at any time, and it is easy to edit them and add and delete things. You can use hue saturation to color the wat...

Business Card Sketches

Image
  These up here are my three sketches for possible business cards. It took me a little bit because I wanted to think of cool designs and not be boring. I like them because they are all different types of styles. The top one is more formal because it has less design, and it gets straight to the point. The second one has some lines and circles to add some design. Finally, the last one has some flowers which I think makes it look charming. Even though flowers can be a little overwhelming for professional things, I believe a couple of them or tiny ones would look fine. I am excited to see how they turn out in the application!  Updated card:
