Winter Window Remix

Music was added to the winter window.

Starry Sky

I found a tutorial showing how to create a starry night in Photoshop. http://www.photoshopessentials.com/photo-effects/starry-sky/. I took a day photo of a tree line and converted it to night then followed the steps in the tutorial. This was enjoyable and the only problem I ran into was when I tried flattening the psd. The image looked a little different. I redid the layer with the starry effect but used more blur and that seemed to solve the problem. Just for grins and giggles I added a shooting star.

3D Coat

This time I created a table in Lightwave and painted it using 3D Coat.  The textures came from photos I've taken over the last year.  The background was added in 3D Coat. The challenge was that the render on a Mac resulted in a blank image. I switched to a PC and then was able to render the image. The Macs at the college are not setup with the same software or versions of the software.

Radio Waves

Animated text done in After Effects using radio waves is featured in this short movie. I used Illustrator for the text and imported it into After Effects. The text is the name of my website. The background was done in Photoshop and imported in AE. Music was added in Premier Pro. I like the over all effect and the colors I used. This was a fun project.

Flash Cards

I've created four designs with very simple images for flash cards. These were created using Illustrator. The main focus is the message which should be easy to read and understandable. Nothing fancy was done for these. The instructor assigned four phrases to use for the flash cards. It wasn't the most exciting assignment but I think I did a good job and that the flash cards will be easy to understand.
