Pre Production

During this typography project, we had to find quotes, type them in a cool font, then made posts about the quotes. The first thing we did with this project is find quotes. I actually struggled with this because I never have been a quote guy, so this took me a little while. I found quotes by searching up people I think is inspirational and using the quotes that are applicable to my life. Then, I found a bunch of cool fonts and downloaded them. That was all for the Pre-Production.

Production

The first thing I did during the production was I chose the fonts that would work well with the theme of my quote. Then, I added some graphics by tracing photos I found online. The thing I learned the most is what type would work the best and how to line it up well. Color was more difficult than just plain black and white because you now have to keep a consistent theme with your quote, the type you chose, and the color.  I would prefer color because you can add another creative perspective to your project.


Post Production

Overall, I feel I did pretty decent on the black and white, but I could have done better with the color ones. I didn't know that we were doing color after the black and white, so I would have chose quotes that had a theme represented by color. All of my quotes except for one didn't have a color theme that fit the quote, they were just random. The only one is the love quote I did. But, I was happy with my black and white quotes, and I was proud of my use of graphics in most quotes. I liked doing this project and I hope I can do something similar later.

Graphic Design Final Blog Post My Favorite Projects My favorite project to do was the vector illustrated project. What we had to do was trace over a choice of a family member using the pen tool, and shade in spots of the picture. In the end, we made a simple version of the picture you chose. The picture I chose was a picture of my dog. This project took me about 3-4 weeks to complete. The main challenge I faced was tracing over the darker/lighter parts of my dogs, and making those parts the correct color. The main skill I learned during the project was accurately tracing over pictures. Throughout the whole project, I always thought I was done, but someone would always tell me that there could be more shading. Others peoples advice telling me to do more shading motivated me to do extra shading, which would make it look less cartoonish. At the very beginning, I was going to do a picture of myself, but I decided to go with my dog instead, which I thought was a good change I made. T...

Music Video Blog The Music We chose and the Theme We Portrayed The music we chose was From Your Mouth from God Lives Underwater. The theme I wanted to Portray was serious but yet cool because he was serious through the whole video but he was eating in reverse and it looked like he was pulling the food from your mouth. The Process The first thing we did is we researched different music videos, and chose one that is clean and we could realistically do. Then, after that, we filled out our story board so we knew what the actor should do and how quickly he should do it. Then, we made a shopping list of all the food we needed. Then, we met at Johns house and me and drew filmed him eating. Finally, Ethan edited but we all helped him. My Role The main role I did was planning out what he should eat, and how quickly he should do it. Technically The main thing we learned is how to edit in reverse. Professionally The main thing we learned is teamwork. We had to find ...

Movie Trailer Blogger

The project we did was recreating a movie trailer. Our group chose "Napoleon Dynamite". Process In preproduction, we worked on looking at all the clips, drawing them out, and putting what time that happens. We also put all of the lines our actors had to say. During production, we filmed all of our clips, including going to places like the lockers, my house, and Woodland Elementary. During Post production, we entered in the slides, the music, and put the clips in order. What I Learned I didn't learn as much of technology things like hardware snd software. I learned mostly acting and teamwork, as I was our main actor and I acted in a couple other videos. It was hard, and you had to cooperate well, but it was fun. What I Would Do Differently/Same One thing I would do differently is filming earlier so we didn't cram editing at the end. One thing I would do the same is our clips were good, and that was probably because we worked hard on pre production. What Ex...
