How To Print a Document Video

  Intro

           In our freshman e-comm class, we were assigned a project to film a video on how to print a document. Here it is:

         We also created a powerpoint presentation on the same topic, but using a collection of pictures instead of a video.

How We Made It.

Using an iPad and a tripod, we filmed a few shots documenting the steps on how to print a document. Next, we used airdrop to send the videos over to the computer, and by using premiere pro to edit the videos together, we created videos like this.

Re-Edit:

DreamWeaver Website Project

          For the past week, I've been working on making a website. While it was a complex project, we did get videos explaining how to do some of the difficult stuff. Here's how:

Adobe Dreamweaver

       

        We each got a file from google classroom to insert into adobe dreamweaver. In doing so, we were able to edit them and turn them into websites on our Mac server. 

Second Page

         For a part of our project, we were to create a second page to our website. This required copying our previous page into a second tab, then editing it to make a "projects" page. 

The End Result:

Sketchup House

         Hello people! It's been almost an entire month since my last post on here. Well, I did work on a project in that time.

Sketchup House Project

      Our assignment was to find a house plan on houseplans.com and try to remake it using sketchup.

The link to the one I chose is here:

Here is a look at my version:

Animating a ball

      Just like the title says, the freshman animation students animated a ball bouncing. well, actually, we made three animations.

Bouncing up and down

      It's a ball bouncing up and down. all we did was use the frame animation tool with multiple layers and looped it like this:

Oh great the GIF doesn't work properly and I can't attach an mp4 file to this post. lovely. well, here you go, it's a picture of a red circle over grass.

Bouncing from the side?

I am literally crossing my fingers right now for this to work:

Oh my god why. I'm just gonna put the surprise version picture below

Surprise round?

Im not even gonna try anymore.

yup. still image.

Ten word animation

       Today the e9 animation freshmen (I'm in animation now) worked on this blog post talking abut animating ten words to fit on a screen. here you go:

     This process was fairly simple, just using a move tool with the timeline tool in photoshop for the words to come onscreen. a simple first project, but it introduces the concept.

Logo Design Project

                  Intro:

  For the freshman e-comm graphic design students, our final task was to design a logo that could represent a future graphic design company if we go down the graphic design career path. This process took a good chunk of the first quarter, and it went as follows. 

                Steps:

              First was the task of sketching.This required us to put our ideas on paper, although unfortunately I don't have an image of it. Secondly, we were to actually put our sketches into logo form. We chose the best out of the ones we made. I believe the most difficult part was choosing the color of the logo background, as there are so many and a lot of them are similar.
            The Final Look Of My Project

Eventually I narrowed it down to just black and white because it gave my logo a much more businesslike look. Now I am to test what my logo looks like on some objects.

                   Practical uses:

On a Sign:





On a Shirt:




On a Truck:

                Conclusion:

                    As we can see, my logo looks amazing. Although it does have a problem on non-white backgrounds, it still looks professional. This has also been an experience all the same. people think the people who design logos just create a logo and that's it, but there's a lot of sketching and brainstorming and dead ends to it. It's still difficult, even if it doesn't look like it from the outside. 

Typography project

 
             Today the freshman E Communications students finished a project on typography. I myself was personally horrified by the lack of tolerance for using the best font, comic sans. I'm kidding this was a serious project, there's no time for comic sans. The entire point of the project was to use a serif font and label its parts, like an anatomy poster in a biology classroom. Here is my end result.

Oh yeah we also had to use our names for the project.

The Project itself states what I've learned about typefaces and their anatomies. I mean, look at all these parts!
