Iron Giant Canvas



This is where I ended up. After 33 saves and a lot of work I completed my final canvas project. I took inspiration from the Iron Giant (seen below). One of my all time favorite movies and at points I thought I would never want to watch this movie again due to the mind numbing process but what I learned so far in this class is that the final product makes it all worth it. I still love Iron Giant and maybe even more so now then before. This project pushed me to my limit and it was absolutely worth it!

The Cyclops

This was one of the first times in the class that I took what I learned and try to turn into something. I present the the cyclops... don't be fooled by its basic appearance... it took me a long time to make this. I am very proud of this example and believed it helped me in the creative part of the class.

AUTOSCOPY

 This assignment was probably the most cathartic assignment I worked on. The goal of the Autoscopy was to take a picture of yourself and to express something deep and personal to you.

This is also something that  myself might have to deal with later in life. Like death the idea of being forgotten and forgetting is difficult to process. Since I couldn't put my fear and anxiety into words I decided to put it into this piece.  After completing my Autoscopy the assignment called to experiment with exporting the image as a GIF. I made many different versio...

POSTER

Image
 Finally I get to talk about this assignment. The poster project was one of the best most liberating and fun assignments I have ever worked on. Everything just worked. The idea just came to me and it was exciting enough to fuel me to work on it immediately.  This was the photo I started off with. My whole idea stemmed from some of my conflicts with religion. Although I respect anyone that is religious and finds joy and purpose within religion I personally have a disconnect and can't bring my self to believe in a religion. I used fake blood on my photo and placed my hands over my face. I didn't want it to look like I was overtly praying but I wanted something that looked close enough, I think the final result looks like I am either praying or ashamed. lastly I wanted to be looking up to add to the meaning of the project. This is the end result. I was incredibly happy with how this assignment turned out. Everything just felt right and I had zero problems or troubles in completin...
