Logos

     This week in class we had to create our own companies and make logos and rework to go along with it. I like to think of creative things that could take off if I ever wanted to test my luck as an entrepreneur! But the ideas I came up with were Emerson: a virtual reality helmet for video games, Rad: a bar that had video game tables set up at each booth, and Thrill Seeker: a social media network for theme parks. I got the name Emerson out of Immersion because that is what the concept of the company is, to immerse the player into the video game world. The picture is glasses with an earth coming out of the top to show the world in a new way. Rad is a popular word from the 90s which is the theme of the bar. Playing 90s rap and rock and such while playing old school video games at each table to get people to interact in a whole new way through the games and nostalgia. Plus, every club has those quick names so yeah. Thrill Seeker is a social media app on the phone that when you go to either Disney World or Universal Studios, people are able to discuss where the shortest lines are, meet new people and discuss anything related to the park.


Calligram

     I created a paintbrush through calligram where I tried to add my feelings towards art and a story surrounding it to show my dream of wanting to become a computer animator. I chose the colours to distinguish each part of the paintbrush to clarify it better because at first it may be hard to see what it is and that's because the paintbrush I based it off of was very cartoonish and not quite easy to work with.  It has been a lot of fun trying new things and I would love to try more of this and see how much better I can get with it.

HTML Drawings!

     So we finally completed the HTML drawing and I gotta say I'm not really sure how I did any of it! Some of the codes were damn near impossible to put in their and it's the simplest stuff! Something tells me I'm really not good at this but hey thats what practicing is for! I'd definitely like to learn more on it and try to get better and make better stuff!


Digital Arts

     It's a new semester and after the first day of Digital Arts I know this class is going to be fun! I am learning a lot of new things like HTML which to be honest is extremely confusing. Just one thing wrong and the whole thing doesn't work! I'm hoping to get the hang of it but I'm really looking forward to when we begin to draw on the digital pads! That's the stuff I love to do! I am into a lot of art, sketching, inking, painting, pastels you name it. I am going to school for computer animation which is my true love of art and I'm really hoping this class is able to give me more experience working with digital art programs I have never used before to gain more experience in the field! I believe this class will be a huge help in expanding my artistic horizon and I can't wait to learn more about all the programs we will be using!
