Water Conference

What I did well?
I think that my concept was good and I used the keyframes well.

What could I have done better?
I think i could have made the transitions between each part of the cycle smoother as well as the text.

Traffic

What did I do good?
I think that the speed of the cars was okay and each car came out at a good time in which you were able to see all the cars without it being to fast.

What could you have done better?
I think that I have could have evened out the road for the cars and the second top car could have been a little slower.

Name Animation

What did I do good?
I think overall the animation was smooth and creative. At first i thought that the animation would be hard to do but then as I practiced and understood it more it started to become easier.

What could I have done better?
I think that i could have not shown the eraser curves in the name.

Billiards Table

What did you do good?

I think that the movement of the balls was good and also for every action there was a reaction which I think gave a realistic look and feel to the animation. I liked how the movements of the balls were and how all the movements connected.

What could you have done better?
I think that I could have made the animation slower so that you could really see the movements of the balls. I also think that I should have added more balls to the animation because it could have looked better and more realistic.

Slideshow

What did I do good?
I think that I was able to make the transitions between each image smooth. I think that I did the keyframes well and I was able to make good use of the motion tween.

What could you have done better?

I think that I could have improved the speed of the video. I think that maybe when the picture would passed by it went to fast.  However, overall I think that I applied most of the skills that I learned from using flash.

A Magazine

MAGAZINE COVER PAGE

MENS CLOTHING

WOMENS CLOTHING

Why did you choose this design?

I choose this design because I wanted the ad/magazine to be colorful and fun like springtime. I wanted the colors to be bright and stand out.

What did you do well?

I think my cover page for my magazine is good because I choose pictures that show the aspects of springtime clothing. I also think that I did the magazine pages well because  I was able to place my logo on each page and then I added background color to each page.

What I could have done better?

I think I could have added more effects to each page. But overall I think I did okay for my magazine/ad.

LOGO

Why did I choose this design?
I choose this design because I wanted to use the initials of my name. I also like the font because it looks very elegant.
What did I do well?
I think that my logo is nice because it is simple yet elegant. I also think that I choose the right colors for my logo because they were all over the place and they went well with each other. I also think I choose the right font for my logo.
What could you have done better?
I think I could have maybe added more of a design to my logo however I think that this logo is good because it does not have a lot of things going on, it is very simple.

Beatles T shirt Design

Front

Back

Why did I choose this design?

I choose this design because I like the Beatles and I wanted to try to make a design for it. I also found this really cool picture that I thought would look cool on the shirt.

What did I do good?

I think that I choose the right color for the shirt and I choose the right quote to put on the back which is from one of my favorite songs "let it be".I think my shirt wasn't too crowded.

What could I have done better?

I think that I could have added more things to the shirt, however I did not want there to be too much things on the shirt because then it would look to messy. I wanted the shirt to be simple yet nice. 

To Make You Feel My LOVE

Why did you create that design?
I created this design because I wanted to use one of my favorite songs as the title. I tried to use color splash to make the heart more apparent in the front cover. I chose this design because I wanted to use the different affects in photoshop such as desaturation and color splash.

What did you do good? 
I think that I did the color splash in the front of the book well. I also think my summary really related to the theme and the title of the book. i chose good pictures for the book because it related to the title and theme. I think I used the tools in photoshop well. I also think my quote that I inserted at the back of the book was good and related to my title.

What could you have done better?
I think I could have added a border to the book. I also think I could have added quotes from various newspapers and book reviews.

Movie poster

For my movie poster I choose STEP UP because it is a really good movie and when I watched I really enjoyed it. I was able to crop out the character on the top right corner of the poster and insert of picture of myself jumping.
I think that my picture looks pretty cool and real. I was able to smooth the poster out so that there weren't that many unnecessary flaws showing. Joel was able to show me how to adjust the contrast and how to insert a lighting effect onto the poster. I also changed the wording and inserted a quote at the top of the poster that says "dance isn't a form, it's a way of life".
I think that I could have changed the title of the movie but it would have been to difficult to do that on photoshop.

Self-Portrait

For my self-portrait added images that I think describes me. The background of my self-portrait is the beach because I love going there with my friends. I added a picture of yogurtland because I love to eat it. I put the Bodyarts symbol because I love to dance and have been doing so for 7 years. I put a picture of myself with my sister and my best friends because they are a huge part of my life and they are the ones that get me through my day. Lastly, I put the quote "Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but rising up everytime we fail".
I think I incorporated good pictures that describe myself into my project. I was able to take the picture of myself, the bodyarts symbol, pointe shoes, yogurtland, and the beach and merge them all together.
I think I could have made my project more seamless. I could have merged the pictures together so that they seem as iff they are just one whole image.
