Photo Edit

So, since my last post a few hours ago, I decided to take care of a commission that I have had for quite a while. I just had to edit an old painted photo back to (at least) close to how it originally looked. I am pretty happy with the result. (posted with permission)

3 posters in 30 hours... GO!

So, this was what I was up all night last night talking about. We were basically given less than 2 days to do 7 projects for the same class. Among them, were 3 full posters. I think that I did a pretty fair job for being given such little time, and with 4 other projects to do simultaneously as well. You can tell how, as it was getting later, I started losing my mind, and when I lose my mind, I bust out the bad fish puns!

ZuN website

Whew, more posts from last semester. I felt for some reason that today I would use the first amount of free time I've had this week to update my blog. So, here was my Viscom final from last semester. I had to redesign a website, so I chose the ZuN energy drink website. Check it out, the real one is pretty horrific. For this I wanted to play around with the bottle shape (a rocket) and carry it through the rest of the site. I gave it more of a military feel with metal aspects (thanks to Hazar for modeling!) And for the nutritional facts page, I deconstructed the rocket with various nutritional information. I really liked it, even though it was hell making it.

Cubist Photo Project

This was the photo project I did for my digital photo class last semester. I wanted to take photos of people I knew and turn them into cubist abstractions. It was originally supposed to be a larger series with each person having 4 photos of the same cubist version, but with different lighting angles, but I didn't have quite enough time to edit all of those, so for now, you just get the best ones. I made the cubist versions by affixing the original photos to foamcore, cutting them up, and stacking sheets of foamboard under the cut up pieces to vary the height of certain areas. Then, I moved a spotlight around the cubist rendition to get various differe


nt angles of light.
