video project 4

Using premiere I found certain things like dragging the dissolve effect difficult and I found editing sound quite difficult.
However, I found it exciting whilst editing videos and photos, changing the motion control and the filters and speed.

video project 3

I did some individual filming as well of fireworks and some stop motion, I adapted the storyline to represent two characters protecting the dangerous bubbles from the red monster.
I took some footage of fireworks as well which I embedded into the filming to improve the quality of the effects.

Unfortunately my work did not save properly on premiere but I soon learnt about we transfer and I also used my usb to make and edit the film again.

I produced a newer film with pictures that I managed to recover along with some new footage. The story still revolved around the two toy characters and with the colours red and green.

They battle each other across different dimensions and only one colour is the resulting winner.

video project 2

We did the filming on our smartphones and we used several props.

The props included: laser light, action figures, neon lights, bubbles , mirrors and some cloth.

We just started playing around with which lights looked best and which props created the most interesting effects below are some examples.

we came up with various ideas including using a hand to and transforming its state and also rearranging weapons and plants. Therefore, plants could be weaponized, in the end we agreed to create a project using lights and bubbles.

-story boards
As a class we looked at several videos including Alice in Wonderland where random things without logical sense were occurring.
For my film plan initially I worked in a group of 3,

These are my developments for my poster, I changed the colours to match the flag colours and I used bright colours as well so they could easily be seen.

These are my final designs for my poster,flyer and ticket.
I used the original designs but I developed them.

old vic assignment part 1

For this assignment I had to either choose my favourite book or movie and do a marketing campaign for a theatre adaptation.

I chose a book called "Americanah" by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, a story about a Nigerian girl who moves to America with hopes of a better life.

  I then decided to create some background designs in relation to African design prints, these 3 were my final designs. The second design will be used as my logo for the tickets.

GRAPHIC DESIGNS AND ANALYSIS

In a lot of designs artists use geometric 2d shapes and use the same colours in a repeated arrangement like above.

THE PRESENTATION

The presentation was concise as the information was given to the audiences clearly.

First assignment

I finished the first project with my group where we rebranded the university and campaigned a project for the freshers. In addition, we initially created seven logos and concluded with two logos that were judged by others as the best. Afterwards we created some posters and flyers using adobe photoshop.

The title we chose to use was "Strive To Survive" as it links with our project idea. We planned to have a paintballing competition where the finalists would then compete in a pizza eating competition and the winner would get prizes. The prizes include, free pizza for the rest of the year and free resources for the students accommodation.

These posters were good as the colours and the texture were very central and easy to see. Also the information is simple but informative although the typography could be a bit more creative.




 This is the logo we decided to use finally.



this is one of the flyers we created also on adobe photoshop. The background colours with the text aligned well together and the fragmented image is creative and easy to view.

logo 2

Above are some logo ideas I designed showing the development of my idea surrounding the university with the surrounding common weather. I thought of a range of ideas before including the technology aspects of the university but overall I wanted to be simplistic so I concluded with two ideas, the weather and the academics. Although my logos need some further improvement the positioning of the shapes and writing and the scale and colour. This is needed as all these factors help to emphasise my logos message to the receivers.
