Calligram Selfie Project



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!

Black and White to Color Project

          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!

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.
