Better Stamp

I decided to add a background of text that has the word "need" repeated over and over. I think that it looks a lot better.

Finished Stamp

I have finished my stamp for the themes need, puppy and stamp. I can't think of anything else to add in the stamp so it looks kind of plain. I made the outline of a dog, instead of a puppy, and then colored in photo shop. Finding something to do with need was the hardest part, so after awhile I decided that I would just add the words "needneedneed" along the neck where a collar would go. I think that it looks pretty cool and even though it is pretty plain I like it and think that it looks like an actual stamp.

Goals

By the end of the week, I want to have finished my stamp project. I have the stamp background complete, and the dog fairly close to complete, so I need to put the two together and then figure out what to do with "need". This should not be too hard of a task to complete.

Reflection

I started to create my "puppy" which actually looks more like a dog but I think it looks nice. I have a stamp background and like the way this is turning out.

Inspirational Images

For my need, puppy and stamp themes I decided that I would make a stamp. I like the actual photographs of dogs in the first and last stamps but I really like the Animals on the second stamp. I like how the Animals just kind of flow and look really nice. I think that I may try and do something like that for my stamp.

Proposal

I randomly selected three different themes (Need, Stamp and Puppy) and I am going to somehow relate them. I think that I want to make a photo montage but the other ideas I have with these themes are pretty random so I am just going to see what happens.

Goal

I am having a difficult time picking another theme project so my first goal is to pick a theme. After that I would like to find inspirational images and write my proposal. I should be able to get this done today and then I can work on the project next class.

4:29 Theme Finished

This is the finished product for the 4:29 theme. I decided that for the theme I was going to create the most realistic wall clock that I could. I think that I met my overall goal very well because the clock looks pretty realistic. I thought that the process would take a lot longer but with the help of a quick tutorial I was able to create the Minute and Hour marks fairly easily. So I am very happy with the turnout of this project.

Inspiration

.

Each of these images of clocks have something that I would like to incorporate into my project. I like the minute dashes from the red clock. I want to base my clock off of the middle clock because I like the overall structure and look of the clock. I really like the Hour, Minute and Second hands of the third clock so that is why I chose it. I definitely want my clock to be black and white and I want it to look as real as possible.

Theme

For the 4:29 PM theme, I have decided that I will create a basic wall clock in Illustrator and make the clock at 4:29. This shouldn't be too hard, but you never know.

What If Pigs Could Fly

I finished my "What If..." theme by finishing the thought with "Pigs Could Fly". I am pretty happy with the way that this turned out and I am glad that I chose this theme. It wasn't very hard, the hardest part was probably finding the pictures of different pigs and wings to use.

Goal

This week I want to finish or get close to finishing my What If... theme project. I just have to add some text and then touch up the image and I will be done.

Reflection

 

This is my progress on mt "What If..." theme so far. I should be done fairly soon and just want to touch it up and add the text "What If... Pigs could fly" and then I should be done. I like the way that this has turned out so far.

Inspirational Images

I like the way that most of these images turned out and that is way they are an inspiration to me. Although we all know that pigs and cows cannot fly, the artist for each of these did a good job making it believable. I want to try and make my image as realistic as possible so that it looks nice and professional. I like the background of the two images with pigs so I think that I will just use a blue sky with clouds for the background.

Weekly Goal

This week I hope to find my inspirational images and write about them, and then begin to construct my image in photoshop.

Theme

I think that I am going to try to create a project based on the "What if..." theme.

Reflection

This is my final render of my guitar amp. I think that it turned out pretty well. I accomplished my overall goal because I finished it on time.

Reflection

I kind of met my goal because I did get through the whole video on rendering but the scene is not turning out too well. It is very bright so I will have to try and tweak some settings.

Weekly Goal

This week I hope to work on rendering my amp and it's surroundings. I started to go through a video tutorial last week so hopefully I can finish that video this week.

Reflection

I think that I have accomplished my goal, the scene around the amp looks good and I started to render my scene.
