Logo Project



  This logo represents three things that are extremely important in my life. For this assignment, Professor Roundtree instructed the class to design a logo that symbolizes who we are as an individual. I used a symbol of family to represent my love and passion for my family members. I included a four-leaf clover to represent my family's descent from Ireland. Lastly, I included an Italian Horn to show my Italian heritage. These three symbols are something that I carry myself with every day and remind show my true colors as a human being.  
  The color scheme that I chose to incorporate for my three logos has an in-depth meaning behind them. I chose the color green to be in one of my logos to represent a color that is in both the Irish and Italian flags. For another logo I chose the colors red, white, and blue which symbolizes the country I was born and raised in and am proud to be a part of. This assignment forced me to dig deep into my life and pick out certain aspects that mean a lot to me and make me who I am. Overall, this project was extremely enjoyable and taught me a lot about myself.

    I really like this logo! I'm all about having meaning in works, and I've always been really interested in the triskele (triskelion? I can't remember which this one is, and I've probably spelled it wrong) as well as the clover. Things in threes are really interesting and I like how there's multiple representations of that in your logo! I noticed a gradient in the one with orange and yellow, and thought that was interesting... it'd be cool to see that in the others as well!!

Self Portrait Assignment

For my Self Portrait Project, the project was inspired by a picture that you were supposed to take of yourself and transform it into the application Adobe Illustrator.  From the start of the project, I was deciding what angle was the most appropriate to fit the message that I was attempting to convey in this assignment.  I attempted various different angles from crossing my arms, to serious emotion, even attempting to go after a joking emotion with me laughing in the picture.  Through the assignment directions, the class was encouraged to base our project after a propaganda poster and make our own version out of the specific poster that would give off our own spin.  I looked at various propaganda posters that and I decided to go with an Uncle Sam Army recruiting poster.  The Poster was a picture of Uncle Sam pointing at the eye of the viewer with the message, “I want YOU for the U.S. Army.”  I then chose to take a picture of me in a similar position up against a white wall pointi

For this project, I included a picture of myself, a picture of a candle burning in the shape of a head, and an image of the solar system. I chose to use hue and saturation, color balance, and black and white transition layers when coloring my piece the way it is. My choice of images was specifically used to create an illusion of myself in outer space. While working on this piece on April 7th, it also happened to be the same day as the "supermoon". Astronomy has always been an interesting subject for me to learn about, so I felt with the supermoon being present, and it also is a big passion of mine, that the background of the solar system fits perfectly for this project. When choosing a second image to overlay, I chose an image of a burning candle. With everything going on right now, the coronavirus is taking over our every day lives. As hard as it is, eventually the light (coronavirus) will burn out and we will return to our normal days. The image of the candle burn

I chose to insert myself into my favorite photo of the Sopranos cast. When researching for this project, I looked through my favorite movies and TV series and the Sopranos was an easy pick for me. I dressed in similar clothing to what they were wearing in the photo to make it look as realistic as possible. When adding myself to the image, after I masked myself out, and created a few adjustment layers to make my coloring as similar to the original photo as possible. Some adjustments that I made were hue and saturation, channel mixer, and brightness and contrast. I erased some of my clothing to make it look as if I was behind the character next to me, and made the bottom of my photo blurred out into the black that is shown underneath all the characters. I found this project to be both challenging and interesting, but I enjoyed being as creative as I could. Since this photo was taken using a different camera, I changed the coloring of the original image a little to match the pho
