Pop Art Project

Overview

Our most recent project in eComm was to take pictures of our partner and turn it into pop art. We used photoshop to do so. We were to mainly focus on using adjustment layers, filters, blending
modes, brush tools and masks.

The Process

Before we started we looked at other pop artists, and I was really inspired by Warhols art and techniques. I started the process of turning the picture into pop art by turning it black and white using the black and white adjustment layer. Then I used the magic wand tool to select him and made him a new layer. I painted the background a light blue teal color, and decided I wanted to use pastels as the color scheme. I made multiple shapes in the background for variety, and kept them roughly 50% opacity. Then, I decided I wanted to outline them with colors opposite of the shape. After that, I thought it still looked to plain. So, I added some splatters using the same colors. Then I added a photoshop filter to the top layer, Caden. The last thing I did was adjust the blending mode on the whole background. I was messing around with the different modes and found one that I liked more that the original.

Senior Reflection

5 Guarantees  Technical Skills In e-Comm I have learned many technical skills of filmmaking. The program has taught me how to use a camera and other equipment, and how to use editing software. This is extremely beneficial for me, as I am going to study these areas in college. I have a solid understanding of these skills before going to college which will help me a lot. I faced a few struggles along the way, but that is simply part of learning. You can't learn without making mistakes.  Communication In e-Comm I learned how big of a role communications has in life. Being apart of a team requires communication from each person for the maximum outcome. When I was apart of projects with a group that had bad communication, the final product was never as good. It will continue to be one of the most important skills to have throughout the rest of my life. Collaboration In e-Comm I have learned collaboration skills I wouldn't have been able to get anywhere else. I learned about the spe...

10 Words

My 10 Words Project In this project, I wanted to show the 10 words that describe me best. Here are some that mean the most to me. I chose the word dancer because dance is a major part of my life. I do not go a single day without dancing at least a little bit. If I'm not at school, or doing school work, I am most likely dancing. It is a huge part of me and will continue to be.  I chose the word sarcastic because I am being sarcastic 50% of the time I'm speaking. If I am talking to someone I don't know, I try to hold back the sarcasm until i get to now them better. I am a very sarcastic person, and probably will also continue to be.  I chose the word forgiving because I am just a very forgiving person. No matter how bad something you do is, I will still very likely forgive you. I have in the past forgiven people so many times as to where it gets to the point that they will just take advantage of me. Sometimes I'm too forgiving. Lastly, I chose the...

My Logo

My Logo Process Attached are all the art boards from my logo design project. The process of creating my own logo was a long one. I started out by sketching my ideas. I tried many different shapes and styles. Once I decided on my top 3 to bring to life, I went to Adobe Illustrator. I started with black and white, just to see if the shapes would compliment each other, or be appealing. I tried my simplest circle idea, and it went well. When I tried to do the more advanced ones with odd shapes, I didn't have enough Ai experience or knowledge to make one well. I tried to do them implying the rose, and using circles, but I did not like how it looked. Then, when I decided to just stick with the simplest option, it was time to add color. I began with trying analogous colors for contrast between the circle and the letters. I decided I liked the tone and simplicity of the blues. While playing with color, I wondered what it would look like with a stroke. So, I tried the dif...
