Alexandria Tinsley: 2014

Friday, May 9, 2014

To conclude this blog, I have included this Final Digital Arts Project to give visual proof of all that I have learned from taking this course. Digital Arts has helped me in terms of my paintings. Such as editing my photography of my live models on Photoshop to emphasize hues, exposure and saturation. These digital skills have made it more possible to create a more balanced and visually interesting composition.

This video was created from an original video, taken by myself and drawn over using a drawing digital tablet on Photoshop. The original video was then removed as a reference, and then organised together to create an overall animation of my little sister eating spaghetti and dancing, as a two year old should.

Being the original image, I only used this photo for its rich colors.

I then recreated this scene similarly using texturized brushes on photoshop.

creating atmosphere and space, I replicated my version of this image.

The colors used here were inspired by Tampa's very own Gasperilla. I wanted the logo to look like a bar that would be successful and eye catching in Tampa. The texture used in the logo represents roughage and waterlogged wood, while the colors are eye catching and pirate-like. The name LACKS came about from the idea of a pirate ships ropes becoming lacks and letting loose while the pirates sleep. Lacks being key word for the public being able to relax and enjoy a drink. LACKS*

Logo 5

Twitter is a social media website and company that targets just about any age group. Making the correlation between a bird and a tweet sound is smart and the identifying blue is some what of a knock off of Facebook but it's been the social media color thus far. Eye catching and different, it's been successful this far.

Logo 4

Toys r Us is a great example of a simplistic, colorful, yet childlike logo. Targeted towards newborn-teenagers, this logo is energetic and functional with any age group or gender.

Logo 3

Pixar is a movie production company that targets children and middle age children with cartoon and animated movies. Their logo is especially successful due to their relation to the particular movie that the logo is featured on. Also, when the logo is featured, it tends to have some kind of animated alteration association involved which shows some fun way of skewing the logo in some fashion. Since the logo endures so much abuse, I think it rather genius to keep the font and colors as average and times new roman as possible as to not over due the appearance.

Logo 2

Puma is a successful tennis shoe company that markets based on a lean and athletic shoe design. The colors being simple yet hip and stylish. The puma is reflective of that athletic function.

Logos

MTV is a television network that targets 16-30 year olds. I believe they are successful in their message based on their frequent color changes and style advancements that reflect things like neon color and hippy looking color correlations.

I am new to blogging, it seems foreign and awkward to me, but I am going to try my best with this. I am a painting major with absolutely no computer experience besides the essentials to paper/essay writing. Technology never seems to agree with me, but this code thing is getting kind of interesting.
