design rational for poster

I started off by finding a black and white picture of Bob Marley and then brought it into Photoshop. From there I went to the filter tab and chose the film grain filter and played around with the intensity and grain of the image. After I was happy with my background image I imported it into QuarkXPress. I made the image a little more faded when I was in quark so that the words were easier to read. After I had the image in Quark I started to add words to the image. I chose Castellar MT STD as my main font and for the font on the bottom I used Impact, I also wanted to bring it the Jamacian vibe so I made the words green, yellow, and red. I didn't really use the layers at all, I just had everything on one layer.
I didn't experiance many issues with Quark, I had one problem with the text having a box around it, but that was solved by clicking on the view tab and unclicking the guides option. I am most proud of way I made the background picture look, I was going for the look of an old poster that you would happen to find on the street, and I think I accomplished it.

Design Rational for Britney Powerpoint

I did my power point on Britney Spears. For the opening slide I chose a black and white picture of Britney and for the font of her name I used Biffo MT Std. Then I had that slide disolve into the next one about Britney's greatest accomplishments. The font I used to talk about the accomplishments was cascade script LT Std, and for each accomplishment I used the dimond animation effect. For the picture in this slide I used one that was almost a silhouette, it was taken from her Circus music video. I also had that slide disolve into the Third slide.
For my third slide I had to take an album and list of its songs along with the times of the songs. I chose her Blackout album because I thought it had an interesting cover, and for the fonts of the songs I tried to find a font that was similar to the one used on the cover of the album. I used Bauhaus std medium.When each song came in used the Peek in animation.I also used the dissolve transition for to get to my table slide. To show my table slide I used the wedge transition. In my table slide I compared Britney to artists that are similar to her, I used Christina Aguilara, Lady Gaga and Beyonce. I compared how they were first recognized, where they were from and the age they were when their debut album came out. For each point on the table I used the cascade scriped LT std, and I used the fade animation to show points. I used the dissolve transition to get to my last slide. The last slide had an assortment of pictures. I chose a picture of her with dark hair and one of her with no hair to show her changing personality. As for the music that went along with this power point I chose My Perogitive and Oops I did it Again.

design rational for collage movie

For my collage I started off by looking on Facebook for different pictures of parts of my body, after I found the pictures I was looking for I put them into photoshop and used the magnetic lasso to cut out specific parts of the pictures of parts of my body. Then I put all the cut out pictures of my body into one project and molded them together. After I was finished I copied the entire image and added as a layer to my font poem. Then I added animation to the whole project and ended up with a movie.
