Blog #16 - Postcard

 


Artist Statement
This week I learn more tools on Adobe InDesign. This was my first project completing on this platform so I was eager to get started. This project was surrounded around the solar eclipse that occurred on April 8. Since the eclipse was present in Vermont, I decided to highlight Burlington, VT in my postcard. To create my content I used the frame tool to create a layout for  my design and got to experiment with some new fonts. I also was able to included my personal logo as the stamp on my postcard, which I find to be a neat touch. I am excited to share my very first InDesign project, enjoy!

Blog #2 - Internet / World Wide Web / Bluetooth / Wi-Fi

  Internet & World Wide Web The internet has become a crucial part of peoples' everyday lives. The internet is a global network that connects computers and other devices all over the world. This allows for access to almost any information and the ability to communicate with people globally who also have internet connection.

Blog #18 - Portfolio

  Artist Statement This semester I have had the opportunity to expand my knowledge on Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, and Adobe InDesign. I have been able to learn about many tools and tricks that these platforms offer. Throughout my time in FMX 210 I have taken my knowledge and created several projects. For my final project this semester I have created a portfolio that showcases all the projects I have completed in this course. To create this portfolio, I used InDesign and brought my idea to life. From choosing a color palette, to selecting fonts, I am very pleased with my final project. I am so excited to take what I have learned in this course and apply it in the future. With that being said, enjoy my FMX 210 Final Portfolio!

Blog #14 - Animation

  Artist Statement This week I learned how to create a frame-by-frame animation in Adobe Photoshop. This process started with drawing out my storyboard and deciding where I wanted my story to go. After relaxing on the beach for spring break, I was inspired by the wildlife and knew I wanted to have an animation about crabs. From there I experimented with my frames and layers, rearranged some elements of my story, and made my idea come to life. During this process I was able to combine many different elements such as images, text, shapes, shadows, and even include my personal logo into my animation. Many frames, layers, and editing later I have created my first animation! Finally getting to my final product was so fulfilling to see and I am happy to share, "Beachside Gems of Love", to my blog!  Initial Storyboard
