ONW Interview


     For this video project we had to interview someone from our class about something they do in their life. The very first thing we had to do was chose a subject. My group and I chose Drew Swecki, he was apart of this years Raven Pride Marching Band. After we chose the main subject we had to chose another person who knows Drew and is somehow connected to what he is involved in. The second subject was Mr. Carter who is Drew's instructor for front ensemble. After we figured out who we were interviewing we came up with 21 questions for both of them. Coming up with 21 questions about something you don't know much about was very hard. So Jaden Brown, who was also a member of the Raven Pride Marching Band, came up with most of the questions.

     When we were done coming up with questions we then scouted out locations. We were going to film Drew in the band room but the scenery wasn't very good. We also had to film him about 3 times because no one knew how to work the mic at first and then the second time the mic wasn't on. For the final time we filmed Drew in the e-Comm break room. By the time we interviewed Mr. Carter it was really easy. We only filmed him once, in one of the teacher break rooms, and knew how to work all the equipment.

     Michael Decker filmed the b-roll for our group but unfortunately we couldn't use it. So instead we just used previous band competition clips from online this year. For more b-roll Ava filmed the trophies that the band had one and the band wall.

     While editing putting all the clips together wasn't very hard. I kind of already knew what I wanted to do.

Bounce

Overview  In this project we were to create 3 different animations. The first one was just a red ball jumping up and down, then the second was a ball bouncing across the canvas. Then last the last one could be whatever we wanted with a surprise emding. How to do it First we had to make a background for the project then make many copies of a ball and make it bounce. We used the command, option-drag key a lot to copy items. Once we copied the balls we had to move them around to make it look as if they were bouncing. Next we created the animation and we had to go frame by frame until thr animation was complete. Conclusin I think this project was very successful and fun to do. If I did it again I would pay more attention on frames and come up with a better surprise animation.

Semester 2- Graphic Design

This semester in graphic design has been filled with many fun and creative projects. One of my favorites was the vector project. While working in Adobe Illustrator we had to recreate a picture of us using the pen tool to create different shapes and colors. This project took about 2 weeks to complete. The first thing we had to do was find a picture, then vectorize it in Adobe Photoshop to see all the different color to create the finished project. This project was not that hard just very time consuming. At first I didn't know where to start on the but once I did it was pretty easy. My vector isn't very detailed like others but ended up still being good.  My second favorite project, is the most recent, the name logo. I really liked this one because I had the freedom to do whatever I wanted. At first we had to sketch at least 30 different designs just to get us started. Then we chose our top 5 that we liked. After we traced all 5 into Adobe Illustrator it was now time fo...

Vector

     For this project we had to choose a portrait of a family member, pet or our self and recreate it in Adobe Illustrator. After choosing the picture we wanted we had to put it in Adobe Photoshop first. We cropped the image and posterized it to whatever number you wanted. We had to posterize it to see the different highlights and shadows on our picture.      The hardest part about this project was trying to differentiate all the shadows and highlights on the body. I only did the ones that seemed the most important to me. I decided to really simplify my vector down because tracing every different thing looked weird to me. I think my favorite part about my vector is the eyebrows, eyes and the raven on the front of the outfit. Those really turned out great. Overall I think this is one of my favorite projects so far in graphic design. After finishing this one I wanted to create another vector right away. Just watching it all come together was really co...
