Autoscopy Project

 



For this project I wanted to create something simple but something that had a strong effect and message. The message I wanted to convey is that especially for women, mens eyes are always on you. Whether it's them judging you, checking you out, cat calling you, or just straight up stating. The phrase "all eyes on you" that I placed on both sides of the picture were meant to convey that meaning as well as the many eyes cut out in the background, piercing at the audience. The red lines over my shoulders that are a little bit opaque are meant to cover the part that men typically just pay attention to. Just like in schools how girls are told to cover their shoulders because they are "too distracting". My eyes in the photo are staring right at the audience, sending the message that I see you and my eyes are the thing that should be paid attention to. I also blurred my face in the second one, which if I were to change anything I would reverse it and make my shoulders clear and my face blurred. I loved my message for this project and I really liked how it came out!

Black and White to Color Project

Image
          For this assignment I chose I really fun selfie that I could make the effects look super cool. I struggled with making the lines of the small barrettes in my hair because they were so detailed and small that they weren't as clear cut as I wanted them to be. Overall I love the color pallets I chose. The all red monochromatic gives a sort of scry dramatic sense to the image in contrast to the rest which are more fun and playful like the selfie. I am happy with the work I did in these images and it taught me a lot of creative skills on photoshop that I can use for future projects!

Calligram Selfie Project

Image
This assignment was very fun for me because I was able to be creative and utilize my facial features with the words in the calligram. The selfie that I chose was fun to use because if the makeup that I had on so I was able to work the words into the makeup I had on to make a cool effect. The words that I used were a mix of things that I am self conscious about, things that I am passionate about and love, as well as things that I like about myself. The reason I took this approach is because I think the contrasting words and ideas make up who I am. I am not just all the negative things or all the positive things, I am a mix of both and I believe that needed to be represented in my calligram selfie!

Multiplicity Project

  The multiplicity project was nice to have towards the end of the semester because I was able to get to know the features of photoshop so I could do the best work on this project. I enjoyed the creativity this project offered and the different things that could be done in the image. I wanted to make each person doing a different thing in the image, all coexisting in one room doing daily tasks that I do on a daily basis. I wish I had more space in my room to have each person interact more, but I do like how the edges of each person came out so clean. I was able to improve that from the previous projects.
