Manipulating Scenery

In this project, we took photos of different landscapes, buildings, etc. and changed aspects of them. One photo we changed Day to Night, another was adding stars and many others were changing the weather.

Extract Red

For this project, we took a photo, isolated red in the photo, and made the rest of the photo black and white.

Movie Posters

For this project, we were given a movie to watch and were tasked with making a movie poster for that movie. The requirements for the project were, the movie had to be one we had never seen before, and we had to use images from the movie that showed off what the movie was about, without using a complete scene. I chose the Blues Brothers movie.

Flag Creation

For this project, we learned how to make a flat image appear as if it was a piece of fabric. First, we had to take a flat image of a flag that exists and photoshop it onto fabric. Once we showed that we were able to successfully complete that, we had to design our own graphic and do the process all over again.

Vinyl

All of these photographs are of vinyl decals I made and placed around the Music Department of the High School

Graphic & Interactive Design Capstone Final Project

For our final project in Capstone, we were tasked with making a design and adding it to 4 different items. A skateboard deck, a T-Shirt or Sweatshirt, a totebag, and a small item of our choice. Our designs were then printed and put on display in a “pop-up” art show on the 22nd and 23rd of March 2023.

My design was based off the 412 brand associated with Pittsburgh. I chose to do the area code where I grew up, 724. Bellow are the various versions of the designs, as well as some mockups of what the final designs would look like.

Magazine and Media Design

Sophomore year of college I took a course that taught us how to layout and produce a magazine. During the course, we were 

For my second project I chose to do my magazine on World War 2. I have always been into history and have a great deal of knowledge on the war. In addition to that, my Grandfather served in the war which meant I had authentic WWII artifacts I could photograph and include in the spread.

While laying out the spread I contacted the National World War 2 Museum to acquire some photos for the project. After receiving photos from the museum, I went through all my WWII memorabilia as well as items that belonged to my grandfather to be included in the spread. I photographed different currency from the time, items that I purchased at the Pearl Harbor museum, as well as my grandfather’s Uniform, medals, war used flag from his ship, and several other items.

For our Final project, we were to come up with an idea, and convey that idea using skills we learned in the course. I chose to use different colors and what emotions they conveyed.

Digital Photo Editing Project 1

For project 1, we were tasked with using Photoshop to create a scene. I decided to Photoshop my parents and brother onto the White House lawn reacting to a giant T-Rex on the loose.

American Art Midterm

We were tasked with creating a piece in the style of a specific art movement or Artist we had learned about so far in the semester. I chose to recreate the painting American Gothic by painter Grant Wood. I posed my parents in a way that I felt showed off a modern version of the original painting.

American Art Final

Our final project was similar to our Midterm. We were tasked with creating a piece in the style of a specific art movement or Artist we had learned about in the second half of the year. I chose to recreate Audrey Flack’s Marilyn. The original piece is a painting that looks like a memorial shrine to Marilyn Monroe. I chose to create mine as a photo rather than a painting. I used items that belonged to my grandparents and edited it to look like a painting.

Motion Graphics

The Intro to Motion Graphics course taught us how to use Adobe After Effects. We learned many skills from how to animate a logo, to removing items from a video clip, and many more. Below are just a few examples of what we did in class.

For my final project I animated a logo I created for a friend’s Podcast.
