Logo


I've never like describing myself or talking about myself, really. However for the sake of the assignment I managed to come up with five words that I thought represented who I am. Those five words were nerd, down to earth (multiple words, I know), chill, easygoing and intelligent. I brainstormed and drew logos for quite some time, but in my head I knew what I wanted my logo to look like. As a computer programmer the word nerd is used to describe me all too often. I coupled that with my word of choice and an old school computer terminal font to create a simplistic logo. I think the logo is well suited to branding, because you could put any word you want inside the brackets. The green font makes it pop on a black background and the purple slash adds a touch of uniqueness.

Portfolio

    Our final assignment was to create a portfolio with all our assignments throughout the semester. In keeping with the programming theme I made the text look like you were using the terminal to navigate a file system. In reflection, learning the Adobe Suite has a lot of similarities to programming. It reinforced for me that one of the most invaluable skills to have is knowing how to learn.

Animation

  The last thing we had to conquer in Photoshop was creating an animation. I was instructed to create a 30 second animation at 10fps using rotoscoping techniques. As an avid baseball card collector I thought, what would be cooler than an animated baseball card? Well, I didn't know what I was in for because this project had me working almost all day everyday for a week and a half to complete.  Once I got done rotoscoping the animated card images, my deadline was just a few days away and I wasn't sure how I was going to have time to go through 400+ photoshop layers and manually mask my hand and add the images in. Enter After Effects. With limited After Effects experience taught myself how to use the motion tracking and rotoscoping features to get the effect I wanted. While the learning curve probably didn't save me much time, I'm glad I was able to figure it out. Because of my inexperience with After Effects I still had around 100 layers to manually adjust in Photoshop, b...

Multiplicity

  As a person who does something very technical for a living, this class really helped me to unlock my creativity. Later on in the semester I made a point to try and approach some of the more technical assignments in a creative way as a challenge to myself. This is an example of where I feel it paid off.  For this assignment I was to take six pictures of myself in the same space, and stitch them together to form one image. Instead of just taking pictures of me sitting in the same space, I chose to try and tell a story. One version of myself passed out and we can see the ensuing reactions of the various versions of myself.
