Now what????

for the next two weeks i'm not really sure what to do. I'm debating continuing with After effects and trying to make a commercial or trying to add special effects to a video i'll make. that or maybe I will be working on two posters advertising some kind of product... or I might try to create a website from scratch ( which is something i've always wanted to learn how to do).

kinetic typography

Phew! finally got this done. It was really intimidating at first but by the end I really got the hang of it. 
I had no idea what i was doing or how to use the program at first. I ended up using knowledge I had from other programs such as photoshop and illustrator to help me make my way around After effects. At first it was really reaaaaaally hard and almost had me in tears but by the end I really feel comfortable using it to design.

The Next Two Weeks

For the next two weeks I plan to work on kinetic typography. I wanted to work on this for my first project  but I would need at least a week and a half to two weeks to complete it. I'm looking for a short poem, saying or motivational speech that i will animate using text.

Name and Love

For this project I used photoshop to create a design focusing on my interest in visual art and design. I pretended that I owned my own business and I wanted to show interested clients what my business would have to offer.
I thought of what I knew about design as well as what I hoped to learn through this project
This project took me about 9 hours to create and I had to research how to add certain effects in photoshop. 


I also created a work focused on the word "Love" I used tools i learned from "name" to help create this work. I used words that came to my mind when i thought of the word "love". 


These are my explorations of typography focused on a word. 
This was a huge learning experience for me.


some of the works that inspired me:
