Postcard Edit Blog

       

    Hello all! And welcome back! To my blog. I will get straight to business here, this week I was tasked to create some special postcards for a project this week, this postcard in question all had to have a special twist to all of them or to say a theme. All postcards created from original images had to have the same message for a certain community or non-profit organizer.
        

While having all these certain requirements in mind I wanted to figure out what type of message I wanted to portray in these images and to edit them to my liking and my style. While there were a lot of different struggles along the way in getting the perfect pictures and tuning them just the way I like them, I wanted to share with you all my final pieces and what they have to tell you all.







         

         And voila! These 6 Postcards were created from photos that were taken all throughout the month and have made me really content. From when I  started with little to no knowledge about the photography scene to knowing the greatest and best tips, and still learning! I can say this project made not only the photographer side of me really happy, but also the Photoshop-loving side of me very excited. To be able to put my past skills and newfound knowledge to the test and show you guys how I did my special pieces, that all together tell the one true message. That is. Journey. From where you can start off, to where you can take a rest and enjoy what you have made. Or to create something new, or to wander on different expeditions. They all have a purpose. And that is to create a new journey every single time. Either good or bad.

    And like always I want to thank you guys for always tuning in. I love sharing what I have in store for you guys, and will always provide more insight into what I do, and how I do it. But as always I appreciate you all being here. On to the next one! 👋

Designing Emotion- Week 2

Image
                       Hello everyone! Today I was tasked with a assignment that I would hold as one of my most challenging so far. This weeks project was orientated around emotion. To me emotion is one of the harder features that I struggle with as a designer. Emotion has been some of my greatest hurdles when it comes to designing, the thought process, the layer scheme, the image choice, the whole aspect what the emotion has to revolve under. But this weeks task was only to pick a song to design your piece around, and contact mainly on the emotion is gives off.               When it came down to main choice that I wanted to revolve around, my playlists are a mashup or every genre under the sun. My main motto when it comes to music is "If it sounds good, I'll like it" and ive stuck with that for most of my life. But that was just one of the many little hurdles that I got ov...

My Colleague.

Instructions Visual Voice Inventory.  Create a collage or slide show of 8–10 pieces of your past creative work (photos, drawings, designs, etc.). Analyze them as a set: Write down the first words or feelings that come to mind for each piece, then look for patterns. Do certain adjectives repeat? Do you see a consistent color scheme or subject matter? Next, ask a friend or classmate to view the collection and describe what they  feel  is  your  voice or style. Compare it with your own impressions. This inventory will help you identify elements that already make your voice distinctive. Based on this, list three qualities you  want  to emphasize more in your voice (for example: “playful humor,” “bold contrast,” “compassion for outsiders”). This list becomes a conscious target for your future projects.  Content   Reflection   Time Made Visible. Mesmerizing, Temporal, Distorted    Rain  Moody, Dreamy, Quiet ...

You Aren't Alone.

 Instructions   1 - Either A - Create a poster for an event, cause, or product that shows your understanding and application of Empathy, Composition, and Storytelling principles. Or B - Recreate a poster or Design that you have previously done, showing your understanding and application of Empathy, Composition, and Storytelling principles. 2- Create a detailed blog post that describes your visual choices and how you applied what you learned in Chapters 1-4 to make this poster tell a story.  Poster  For this project, I had the chance to create a poster of a movement, cause, or event of my liking. Or to recreate an old project of mine. At first I wanted to try and redefine and recreate one of my old projects, but looking back I don't really have any impactful type of creations..... But that's no worry. The image you see is made after a mental awareness movement. Since Men's Mental Awareness month recently passed past I wanted to try and give it a go with an organiza...
