Type Part 1

Type Part 1:
This project showed us the intro to text tools and their uses. I took random letters, shaped them, and gave them a new gradient.

Animation Part 1-Snoopy

 Snoopy:
For this project, I tried to take a picture of Snoopy and give him the effect of walking. The end result was more of a break dancing dog but nevertheless, the moving effect was somewhat achieved. The hardest part was the re-creation of Snoopy's feet which proved hard to keep at a single size which somewhat lead to the "dancing effect"

Cartoon Celebrity

Franck Ribery as Patrick Star:

The objective of this project was to take a celebrity or an athlete and make them look like a cartoon character. For my specific work, I took world famous soccer player, Franck Ribery, and used the warp tool to shape his head in the same likeness of Patrick Star, from Spongebob. I then selected the head portion and used the hue/saturation tool to give him the pink hue of Patrick

Paint Splats

Paint Splats-
This project dealt with the use of various shapes and sizes of paint splats and their incorporation into a picture to seem as if they were actually a part of it. This picture is of 2 of my favorite soccer players. I used the spray-like splats to create an effect of an impact splatter as the foot of one player struck the other. The spray gives an effect of motion and seem as though the splats came off of the player as he was kicked.

Newimal

Newimal

This project was to create a new animal out of the combination of several animals. That is exactly what I did through this creation. This picture is comprised of a horse, a duck, a the pelt of a white tiger. The result, while somewhat creepy, it pretty well in its composition to create a new looking animal
