Captain America shield

This is a shield I made in illustrator using a totorial from Lynda.com. To make this you create the circles and star and the basic shapes. I then used the flare tool to create the reflective effect on the shield. I also put a gradient on the biggest red and blue circles. This creates a darkening effect on the shield.

The chase

The Chase

The scope of this project was to create a 30 shot sequence chase scene. My partner was Sarah Price and together we decided to do a man vs. man story. After deciding this we started to story board our ideas. We completed filming this video in four hours and edited it in 3 hours. While making this project I learned how to follow the person running but connect the shots. Professionally I learned how to collaborate my ideas with my partner on the shots we take. If I could do something different I would have more shots of running and more inside. I would keep the same ending though.

Pencil and can

First we used a book to show us how to work in illustrator. I made a pencil and a pencil can.

Next we got to explore and make our own pencil and pencil can.

Finally we made our own complementary objects. 

My take aways from this assignment were, learning that command Z is undo, that you can use command K to set your preferences, and that by holding down shift you can make the shape proportional.

6 shot sequence

This video is a Six Shot Sequence. I made this in e-Communication video class. In this assignment we used six shots to show different kinds of shots like medium, close up, wide shot, and point of view. in this video Sarah Price shows her love for drawing but doesn't think her drawing is good enough.

Graphic Design

Graphic Design is art. It is a visual representation of something. Graphic Design is the art of communication, stylizing, and problem solving through the use of type, space, and image. Graphic Design impacts our lives everyday. There is always an idea behind graphic design that the consumer will remember.
