FINAL VIDEO

Craft- In order to make this video I used adobe premiere. I used the special effects in the program to make the photo I created in photoshop into a moving thirty second poster. This video poster is a combination of all the previous small projects listed in the blogs below.
Concept- The concept of this movie is to draw peoples attention to an event going on, which is James and Judys thirty year anniversary.
Composition-  I chose the pieces of information that I felt was the most important to be on the screen longest. I also used special effects to draw the viewers eye to the important parts of the video poster. The falling heart is used to continue to keep the viewers eye on the text that appears and has the viewer look at the information in the order I want them to look at it. The color scheme I used was chose specifically because I feel as if the tan colors and light browns are sophisticated and classy. Since this is a classy event I felt the colors along with the cursive font went well together.

Week 14- video

Craft- In order to create this video I used my digital camera and set it to video mode. I filmed this in my bathroom because it has the most natural light, and I was able to get a background that was the color I wanted. I had to get below the glass and video tape on an upward slant to be able to record the champagne pouring into the glass. I used one hand to video tape and the other to pour the champagne.
Concept- The concept of this video is to catch a motion shot of champagne pouring into a glass to symbolize celebration.
Composition- I chose an upward angle to make the glass appear taller and I chose a light brown background because to me, the color is classic and elegant just like the event it is advertising.

week 13- video clips

Craft- In order to create this video I used my cellphones video option. I held up a water bottle against a solid color wall and continued to keep tipping it to create the pouring motion. I then used the blue tooth device to import the video onto the computer.
Concept- The concept was to video tape a pouring motion for my soon to be video poster.
Composition- I used a bottle that was see through so that the viewers could view the water moving inside the bottle. I also video taped it in front of a solid background so that the viewers eye would not get distracted by any other object. I repeated the pouring motion so that, if the viewer did not understand what was going on at first, they were able to keep watching it to understand that I was portraying a pouring motion.

12- poster

CRAFT- I started making this poster by using a drawing in the previous post. I took this drawing and recreated it on photoshop using multiple layers a different fonts.
CONCEPT- The concept of the picture was to make people aware of an anniversary party via a poster.
COMPOSITION- I chose the brown and tannish colors because I didnt want colors that were super vibrant because those colors remind me more of a wild party and this party is more of a brunch. I made the event the largers so that it drew in attention and I made the photo half of the poster also to draw the viewers eye to it. I chose the fonts specifically because the event that I am inviting people to is a classy event. The font reminds me of sophistication and more of a formal event.

11- sketches

ADD PICTURES
craft- In order to create these drawings I used a blank sheet of horizantal paper and a pencil. I drew them by hand.
concept- The concept was to create a poster inviting people to an event in a way that would grab the viewers eye and have the poster stand out from others.
Composition- I used bigger and darker pencil parks on the more important words to grab the viewers attention, and I also tried to center the drawings so that the viewers eye would be drawn to it.

LAYERS

ALL THE PHOTOS ARE LOADED BUT WHEN PREVIEWED THEY DONT SHOW

CRAFT- In order to create these layer photos I used photoshop. I selected a new layer and a new paint brush 20 times. I one color for the majority and used different shades of that color. I then moved the layers around untill I found a pattern that I liked.
Concept- The title I gave my series of layer are Send Me Red Ducks. The reason I chose this title is because the main color is red. I tried to put an emphasis on the ducks in my photos as well. Another part of each of the photos is the POSTCARD stamp which gives the impression of someone sending something.
Compositison- I chose to create the duck layer the deepest red in order to make them stand out the most and I chose the dark blue for the POSTCARD and 5 cent stamp because they were a part of the photo that was different then the ducks and I wantd it to pop out at the viewer.

WEEK 9 GRADIENT

Craft- The craft that went into creating the entire folder is noted in the blog below.  In order to create the gradient necessary to portray my picture appropriately I opened my photo in Photoshop. I then selected the layer I wanted to appear with gradient and selected the colors I wanted and used the gradient tool to make my photo look more realistic.

Composition- I chose an to make my Iphone four to appear as large as the ordinary radio because I wanted to emphasize the Iphone. I chose the colors that I did, because I wanted the photo to be realistic so I stuck with the original colors of the items.

Concept- Since the topic was "escape from ordinary radio" I decided to use an ordinary radio and an Iphone 4 to portray this. The radio on the left is my "ordinary radio" and the Iphone on the right portrays the "escape". I chose to have the older radio listening to the newest of radio because when I think of escaping, I think of putting on my headphones and escaping reality. I chose the ordinary radio to put on headphones and escape from itself, which is ordinary and listen to a better and more exciting station which is 88.3 WXAV.
