Urban

This week I put together a project for Urban Landscape in the city of Toledo. This is a 30 second video previewing some of the shots I took while I was in the city. I used soft uplifting music to give the project a calm and relaxed feel. The music I chose also helps you focus more on the pictures because it is not a popular and distracting song. I took about 40 pictures while completing this project but I only really like the ones previewed on the short video. I enjoyed doing this project, it got me out the house and gave me a chance to see a city that I am not familiar with. https://animoto.com/play/faitfoMlTih0DppAD1Y4yg

For the second part of this assignment I was to choose my favorite picture out of the collection and talk about the edits I made to it. For this picture I made the perspective very strong as an attempt to blur out the other objects in the background. I also used a B&W effect with an emphasis on red. I knew that the color from the fire hydrant would glow more with the surrounding objects being black and white. I also cropped the original imagine to get a closer look at the fire hydrant. This was one of my favorite pictures from the collection because of the color scheme. The white snow is blurred out so you might not be able to immediately tell that it is snow. But the white matches up with the white from the top of fire hydrant and I think the two compliment each other very well.

Poster Collective On The Way

  I’ve started editing pictures and creating graphics for a collection of posters and clothing I plan on selling. I’m starting off with only posters in hopes that my clientele increases. The idea of the collective is to sell urban style creations based on fashion, music, and film. The poster will features famous artists from this field with rare photos of them that you wouldn’t be able to find just on google. I found a lot of these photos on tumblr and other blog sources. I edited the original photos in order to avoid copyright issues when I decide to mass produce and sell. These are a few of the edits I’ve created to far for the collection.

For the first part of this week's assignment I created images using both Glass Giant and Text Imagine. I used pictures from two of the many animated TV shows I watched growing up. I used another imagine from Naruto again this week. I used a picture from the show Danny Phantom on the text imagine software. I liked how the pictures came out. I tried many different imagines for glass giant because a lot of the pictures I originally wanted to use did not come out how I would've liked them too. Both of these softwares were easy to use but I did not get much of sense of personal touch because it pretty much does all of the work for you. For the second part of this assignment I used a software called Word Art. I am pretty familiar with word art I used it a few times in both Jr. high and high school. I never really tapped too far into the website I just used the basic settings. On this project I uploaded a picture from one of my favorite movies ‘American Psycho’. While ...

Boondocks

https://vimeo.com/334053703 After doing the video mashup for class I decided to start making a few more mash ups. This is a mashup of fight scenes from Huey and Bushido Brown, characters from a show called Boondocks. The mashup is made to another song I created using a music software called Logic and Abelton.
