Final Project


This last project I chose to compile a couple of the projects we made throughout the semester and make a website with them. I decided to include the projects I had the most fun making like the animated emotions project made in after effects, The self portrait made in Adobe Illustrator and the Audio portrait made in Audacity. I used the same method of using the template Professor helped create and replaced the appropriate words in order to create what I wanted. I changed things like background color, font, and even removed a few components.

Animated Emotion: Anger

Title: Animated Emotion: Anger
Semester: Spring 2023
Software: Adobe After Effects & Illustrator
I chose to create an animated emotion for this project using the word “Anger”. The impact shape and fist were both made in Adobe Illustrator and I created the text in After Effects with the text tool. I simply used the opacity setting the make the word fade in and to make the fist disappear after impact.

Audio Portrait: Hoops

Title: Audio Portrait: Hoops
Semester: Spring 2023
Software: Audacity
In this portrait I wanted to create what sounds like a game of basketball being played. I used a the sounds of volleyball being played but it sounds similar to a basketball game. I added the sounds of glass shattering and water splashes to depict someone missing or making a shot. I trimmed all of the audio clips and played with the volume to my liking to make things sound less awkward and make it seem like all these noises are coming from one source in one room.

Self Portrait

Title: Self Portrait
Semester/Year: Spring 2023

Software: Photoshop

Description: For my photoshop self portrait I chose to create an image of a Crow dunking a basketball on an eagle and added the course name using the text tool and warp effect. The crow is one of my favorite animals and my favorite sport is basketball so i felt this was the best way to include a couple of things that I’m interested in into one photo. I duplicated and cut the basketball from the original image and placed the layer over the crow giving the affect of the bird holding the ball. I also had to tinker with shadows and lighting effects in order to make the eagle match the lighting of the basketball hoop photo.
