Final Blog Post

What an interesting spring it has been with Santi in Digital Arts! Before this class, I had never used photoshop, dreamweaver, illustrator, in design, or any of the other softwares we used. I now feel confident using those programs for my personal purposes or just for fun. Even though some of the projects were stressful, difficult and extremely time consuming, I always felt very satisfied with the final outcome. I remember working on my Autoscopy and my Canvas and feeling like I was wasting my time, but once I had finished, it was all worth it. It's really cool to create things digitally and I am glad that I stuck through the whole class.

I'd like to thank Santi for putting up with me sitting in the back talking all the time, but I want him to know that I was listening to him and he taught me everything I used to complete those projects.

Thanks for a great semester.  :)

Final Portfolio

When printing, my portfolio page numbers were off. Anyways, here's my final blog post- my final portfolio for Beginning digital arts :) 

POSTER - It Feels So Good To Be Bad

Here is my poster made with image tracing on adobe illustrator. The original picture is from Halloween

Checking out more videos for ideas for my poster.

Gradient Mesh- YINYANG

Made with Illustrator. I used the gradient mesh tool with the eyedropper tool to create a 3D version of the little box. I couldn't keep the same wooden texture but I did my best to make it appear 3D with shadows, shine, etc.

Business cards/ Logos & Sketches

These are my 5 business cards with logos for my partner Vanessa. The mickey ears and the hair straightener logo pretty much stayed the same, but the other 3 evolved after the sketches. All were made on illustrator.
