The Kitchen of Meaning

This poster was for Graphic Design II. The goal was to use the provided text to design a poster that represented a certain word. My word was hyperbole.

Weather Report



This video is the first two animations of a weather report for four cities. I chose Zurich, Moscow, Wellington, and Rio de Janeiro. The goal was to use a theme from L.A.T.C.H. - Location, Alphabet, Time, Category, and Heirarchy. My first two, in this video, are Location and Alphabet. I am showing the weather for each city on a certain weekend in the "future".

Black Squares


This project was to animate four black squares. The video represents three words: playful, order, and congested. This was another project to fully understand Adobe After Effects.

Blue Squares


The video was an exercise to fully understand Adobe After Effects. I was to animate the blue squares exactly as shown on the Professor's video.

Document





This project was to design a potential web page to display my Critical Mass images. There are two different backgrounds. Every Critical Mass image must be able to fit on the web page design.

Critical Mass





This project was to study one of the seven deadly sins, I chose Sloth. I used patterns that were created using other images and a scanner. All images are scanned or illustrated.

Transformations







This project's goal was to combine scanned images and some images from the web in any form, such as abstract or realistic. Only a certain amount of images were to be used.

Scavenger Hunt



This project was for Image Methodology. I was to take photos from my own camera that represents with shape, pattern, color, space, or line. The photos had to go in an order in which two of the photos would have something in common. The first two photos have Space in common. The second and third photos have color in common. The third and fourth photos have Line in common. The fourth and the fifth have Pattern in common. The fifth and the sixth have shape in common.
