Motion Graphics Project
November 25, 2007
This is what I have been working on for the past few days. They are going to be in my motion graphics project this term. The kid in my videos and all of these pictures is my brother Landon who came out to visit me and I filmed him for my project. They are all still a work in progress but here is what I have so far…
T-Shirt Design
November 22, 2007
This is my t-shirt design for 2d graphics class. The loops took me forever to make. I have remade them so many times and stared at them for so long they are starting to hurt my eyes. Anyways I’m happy with how it has turned out so far. I still have some final decisions to make if I want to add color and what not but Im so tired of staring at these loops I had to quit for the night.
Infographic
November 22, 2007
This is the infographic that I worked on with Yaniv Fridman for Interactive Design class. It was very hard to fit all of the information about each person on it without it being massive confusion but I think after many hours of work we pulled it off. yaaah:)
DD Slam
November 17, 2007
This is the movie trailer we made for the DD Slam on Friday. I was in a group with Missy, Aaron, and Semir. We had 8 hours to create a movie trailer/teaser for a horror film called Blood City. So we had to pitch a concept, film, edit, and create audio for it. It was a really fun day and a good experience.

November 10, 2007
Woo Im on a roll I figured out how to add my pictures to my blog can you tell? I thought I would post this because it was my first experience working with Photoshop. It originally was a picture of people wearing those disguise glasses and mustaches that you win at arcades. I’m pretty sure the only tool I knew how to use at the time was the lasso selection tool so…I don’t even want to remember how long it took to make this.
I Need Help!
November 10, 2007
This is a look frame of my green screen project this term. I wanted it to be filmed in a really old looking library but there isn’t a lot of them nearby and i have to incorporate green screen somehow. So from combining pictures and altering a million different aspects of it this is what i have so far. I’m not still not completely satisfied with it and would like it to look more realistic and not so wonky. So if you have any ideas email me at dd10erica@vfs.com
…I really should get a comment box for this site…

In 2D graphics in Term 1 our final project was to redesign a store window. We went out and took pictures of different stores and then cut out what they oringially had and made our own. My store was originally El Kartel a clothing store and I turned it into wine specialized store.

Yaay post #2 its been so long…I dont know if I even remember how to put my work on my website so this could be interesting… Alright well this is my holiday card I designed for VFS in term 1. I drew the snowflake in illustrator then brought it over to photoshop and messed around with it until it looked real. Taa Daa. It looks totally different on my laptop than it does at school. It keeps showing up brown and pixelated at school… anyone know why?? Anyways I hope this works and doesn’t show up poop brown on your computer too.
