Business Cards

Image
  My Business cards!  Artist Statement: For my designs i wanted them to be colorful and funky until, i had the idea of my last one. The first card includes a wavy pink design. The colors are all bright and fun which allowed the black words to pop a little more. The second card i chose to do a variety of blues while playing with the color pallet. I kept the same fonts for the first two because i feel like it is professional and clear to see. The blue lines are fun and not too overwhelming which creates a sleeker design for the card. My last card is very different from the rest. It's very modern, hip, and blank. The front of it turned out better than the back because it sort of looks like a flag. Im very happy with my designs!

Id Homework 1

  Tutorial 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0eqhUFRlvgI In this video he creates a food ad/layout. What i found interesting is how he uploaded images and used tools to add them onto the canvas. Instead of certain tools i found it interesting how he manipulated the images to fit the size and shape of the canvas. Tutorial 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7MIKi663ok In this tutorial she taught us how to use many tools. The one i found most interesting is how she used the rectangle frame tool to insert an image to the size you want it on your canvas. I think this will help me in my future projects so i can create different collages and such. Tutorial 3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9D_0UQrOhA This tutorial was extremely helpful! Since our next project is creating business cards using our logo's... he showed us hot to add our logo to the canvas. He showed many other tips and tricks with the text box tool. It really showed me in an easy way how to do this next project!

Somewhere Project

 My somewhere Project  Photo used: Final: Artist Statement: My original plan was to add myself into a shot from the TV show Gossip Girl. After looking at more inspirations and following along with the youtube video that assisted me on my project, i decided to do more of a landmark. I thought this picture was very cute and it reminded me of the time i was on my college search. This image is from Vanderbilt University and i remember always taking pictures at each university i visited. Although, i never had visited this University before, it is beautiful. To incorporate a scene from a film... i chose pirates of the Caribbean! Thought this was a fun and funny way to use the photoshop tools to add myself into! Enjoy!! 

Photoshop HW 2

Image
 1. Picture i think will be really hard to photoshop myself into: 2. Image that inspired me for the somewhere project: 3. A set of images that made me laugh: This one made me laugh because the girls eyes are open then the person photoshopped someone covering her eyes! I laughed out loud because i would so be like ew and cover her eyes too! A lot of people post pictures like this and i think it was well done. 4. The illusion i would recreate: i thought this illusion was hilarious! The photo looks like grains or sparkles are over the photo but in actuality someone is spitting water infront of the camera to create the effect. I would love to recreate this!

TagBrush

Image
  Artist Statement: This is my TagBrush! It was fun to make! Since my logo was inspired by an anchor the spray reminds me of the ocean spray! It brings back many childhood memories. I used to always go on my grandpas boat on the Long Island Sound! Living within 5 minutes to the beach my whole life it has a lot of meaning. 

Self Portrait

 Katie Puric - Self Portrait  Artist Statement: I really liked how my poster came out! I chose this image because i imagined my poster being on social media feeds geared toward people in my generation. The "Be You" comes from a deeper level. My intent was to show people to be themselves and dont follow what you think the society standard it. Everyone is their own self and should go out of their comfort zones and get everything they wish out of life!
