Calligramme

 

    For my piece I chose to do a sand dollar as a way to represent the big beautiful beach house that I am going to live in. In the actual content of my piece I talk about becoming happy, successful, and independent. I feel the happiest at the beach and specifically in Cape Cod, Massachusetts. I think the sand dollar is a good representation of the beach because it is a piece of decor in every beach house and I always think of coastal life when I see one. I've always told my sister that I will know I've made it in life when I can buy myself a Cape house so this is important to me.

    The sand dollar in my work is the only one in the picture, yet they tend to crowd together in one area. In my work I talk about how I don't care if I get married or not. I know I will be happy and happiness does not come from a single person except for yourself. I am setting myself up for success. I hope that the sand dollar will serve as a sign of my goals and every time I see one I will think to keep going and working hard.

However I am not very good at using the anchors, handles, and paths, so that is going to be harder for me to figure out. I do think manipulating the anchor will be easy though because you are just stretching out the shape. I also think it will be difficult to use the color panels and change colors, gradients, and outlines. After figuring out the shapes to use I think it will be easy to align it with other shapes. You could use these tools for a lot of different things such as creating posters, flyers, or social media posts. Something interesting about the video / tools he's using is that there are so many different tools for different functions. There are basically endless possibilities so it is interesting how the user knows how to navigate everything. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GzumUieDPY      This video starts out with navigating panels and l...

Postcard

  This is my post card I chose a pink background because it is my favorite color. I chose my self portrait because I thought that it would fit best with the post card. I like the set up of my card and the logo. I tried to be creative with my logo part. I like how my name in the logo matches the border color.

I think the crop tool will be easy to use because it's just moving the image. I also think the pixel and image layers will be easy to use since we were working with them a little bit for class. I also think that the brush tool will be easy because it doesn't require a lot of work and it is pretty straight forward. I feel like this video would mostly come into use when you use a poster or minor editing. Shape and text tool be easy to use because those were the same in adobe illustrator.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=61mkx_OV61s      In this video the creator mostly uses the masking tool. The different brushes like the minus brush I think would be easy to use. I think this would come into use when you are photoshopping a person. You would be able to edit their appearance any way you want. Spot healing brush will be easy to u...
