Final Project

Image
For my final project, I wanted to create myself in a dream. I thought about what I saw in my dreams the most along with asking my friends, and for the most part they said spirit animals, so I added a lot of animals, and I think it added a cool theme to the project. I tried to make the whole picture move except myself in the picture and the owl in the middle, which took me a long time, but I was happy with the result. The freaky face in the tree is mean't to represent nightmares, and the contrast between light and dark is mean't to display how quickly time passes in a dream. This project took me a lot of time, but I am satisfied with the result.

For this project, my goal was to make a sign like you showed in the examples. I wanted to make it based on potholes because many students who have cars and drive through campus a lot will understand the meaning. The dirt roads are littered with potholes, so I wanted to ass some humor and indicated that they are never fixed. I added the student penalty comment at the end to add some extra humor, because any student at Bard would understand. For example, $15 penalty for being locked out of your room, etc.

The Football Gods The story starts with the planet of Football. On Earth, football is played but is has never been at the level that exceeds the expectations of humans. The Gods of planet Football decided it was a time for change, and over time, four Gods were sent to Earth to change how humans perceive football. The first top be sent was Pele, the creator of the modern game. He single handedly carried brazil to winning the world cup in the 1960’s when he was just 17 years of age. THose who observed the man were in awe of his immense skill. No one could explain how he acquired these skills. The next to be sent was Zidane, who symbolized class and perfection of the game. He set records and won championships as both a player and a mentor, proving he is a master of the game. The last two Gods that were sent were among the strongest yet. Messi and Ronaldo represented the fierce rivalry of the sport. At early ages, Ronaldo and Messi were sent to Earth. Soon after arriving, both players exc

5 Dimensions Project

For this project, I decided to use Google Earth to zoom into an image of Dracula's castle. I wanted to create a gloomy and creepy theme with it, by adding red and bats/ crows into the picture. My 5 dimensions got too small to see from a distance to I zoomed into the middle to see the microscopic part and my scanned picture.

For my kite project, I decided to choose the Amazon Jungle to try to bring more awareness about deforestation in the area. I took an image of the Amazon half alive and half cut down. I added many of the animals that are endangered to show what will go missing after all the fire and destruction. I used the Bengal Tiger in the middle to symbolize species going extinct because of deforestation. I chose to do this as my project in memory of the 9/11 attacks in 2001. My Dad was working relatively close to the buildings when they collapsed so it is something I will remember. I tried to show an image of the car from  back to the future zooming out of the old World Trade center and into the new one, to show that there is still something standing there after what happened. For my GIF, I experimented with a random background with my image in it. I implemented a soccer ball and tried to make a short animation of me kicking the ball.
