Surreal Practice Tutorials


In the desert tutorial we put a gradient on the dirt to change the color of it, then we used distort to pull the dirt back so that it would look like it was going into the distance. Then we put the gradient on the blue background so that we could make our sky look real, then we added some clouds. Doing these tutuorials helped alot because it hepled me get a better idea of how the surreal project will go.

Art Show "Bright Minds in a Bright World"




Bright Minds in a Bright World


In my art work I wanted to express the feelings and show how I think most people that want to be in the entertainment business feel. It’s such a big market but very few make it in. All around you everyday of your life you see these people and they make it seem like there on top of the world. I feel like if it’s your dream then nothing should stop you from making it come true.

I like the way all the colors flow through the picture and how it all comes together. I think that I did a good job at expressing my feelings and how I felt about the project, and how all the different levels pop out at you throughout the picture and make your eye slowly go through the page.

Graduation


The strenght of my design was how I used the clouds in both the front and back and make it look like your looking up to the sky. I wouldn't change anything about my design I like it very much. It was kind of hard because you couldn't do as much as you wanted to you had to stay with the format that they gave you, but once you got use to it, it made it pretty simple. Trying to get all the colors to blend and go together was hard. Graphic design is pretty heasy when you put your mind to it. This project gave me an idea of what jobs people have to do everyday and how much time and effort they put into everything they do. When doing graphic design you have to think from both sides business and customer point of view. Graphic design is a huge part of our everyday life, and its always around us not matter where we are or what we are doing. From the food we get to the clothes that we wear.


Si Se Puede / Academic Letters


On the Acedemic letters the strenght of my design was the way I used the colors and balanced them out. I could of used different colors and used different levels to make it better. I also could of used a different texture too make it look more smooth. I think I did better with the Acedemic Letters because it was a kind of simple idea that came to my mind, and it went together very well.
