Animations

                              Above is both animations I created, the Beyonce video was my first which I used as a practice.  The video above is my own creation about Texan the Turtle, I won't give you any other hints about that, you will just have to watch it and find out!  At first, I really did not know what to create for the project until I went back to my room and saw a glass turtle my sister got for me when she was in San Antonio.  If you haven't already noticed, some of my past designs have been turtle related, this being because they are my favorite animal, and here is another one to add to the collection.  ENJOY!

Traveler Magazine Cover

Above I designed a magazine cover, focused on traveling.  Traveling is one of my passions and this past May I got to conquer my dreams and travel the country, while it was amazing I thought to myself what better way to incorporate one of the best things I have done in my life thus far with a project in my Beginning Digital Arts class.  All of the picture I used are my own that I took during my travels.


Stacked Burgers Menu





This is my menu I designed for class, I chose Stacked Burgers a local burger joint in Tampa that I currently work at.  They have great food, and a great atmosphere, so come on in!  I took a new take on the menu from the original by adding more colors and a logo.  You can see the process of how the menu came to be from the images above from the finished piece.

Drowning Autoscopy

For our autoscopy we had to scan our face on a scanner and think about how we see ourselves in the picture.  To me, I believed I looked like I was drowning, which is why I choose to do a water based theme.  In my lips I see it as myself trying to hold my breathe and my hair is scattered around the image, similar to how it would be if I swam in a pool.

Below, I have saved 4 different "gifs" with colors (black and white, grayscale, mac 0S, and windows) this shows you what the image looks like with various options of color palettes.






Below, is my autoscopy saved as 5 different format qualities (0, 25, 50, 75, 100), as you can see the images get more defined and more detailed as you scroll down.

Place I've Never Been


I chose to put myself on the red carpet, out of places i've never been.  While that would be amazing if I really did go there fer real, we have to just pretend at this point.  I chose a picture of me from Semi-formal and a image of a red carpet I found online, together I used photoshop to make it come to life, and below you can see the process. 





Myself as Jackie Kennedy

For our project we had to morph ourselves into a painting of someone else, for this, I chose Jackie Kennedy.  Below, you can see the process of how it came to be.  I chose Jackie because she is a great inspiration to many, and if I had to pick the 1960's is the decade I would want to live in, if I had to pick any.
