I have really enjoyed this part of the module for a number of reasons. It's really nice to have the opportunity to actually create something I can use for my portfolio by the time I graduate, and overall I think I made a good piece of work that I am personally quite proud of. I think I successfully captured the style of the existing ENO posters whilst still making something unique that they haven't already done before. I have experience using Adobe Illustrator from my time in college, but it's been a little while since I've created something from scratch, and making the mock-ups in Photoshop was a nice touch, so it was great to revisit these skills. It was really useful having all of the requirements and measurements set out for us. I like knowing exactly what is expected from me, so having a list of the exact measurements, resolution and format, as well as reference material made the process of making these designs an enjoyable and stress-free experience. I didn't ...
When considering the type of brand that I wanted to create for myself I knew a few things right away. First off, I wanted it to be pink. A majority of my projects throughout my studies have had a pink theme to them. Mostly it's because I just really like the colour, and I think it has made some of my projects perhaps stand out a bit more. But I have thought about this beyond just the colour, and I want to show employers that my reasoning for picking this colour is to show that I am a little bit quirky and different . It would be kind of boring and dull if I just went with some blue or grey design. That doesn't really fit my personality and so I wanted something that represented me. Additionally, when I asked my friend what I should consider for my personal brand he suggested pink. So there you go, I am pink. The exact hex code I have chosen is #B88393. This is a muted pink which makes it easy for white text and logos to stand out against it. I did have a light pink theme ini...
Here is my completed video show reel showcasing some of the work that I have produced during my studies. It features multiple music videos that I have created since 2017 as well as one side-scroller game I made in first year to show that I have skills in multiple areas. The show reel is edited to an instrumental version of Perfect Places by Lorde. I think this song works quite well as it sounds very uplifting, modern, and has simple chords which are easy to edit to. I tried to make sure I had some visual matches such as where one girl in one of my videos flips her hair, it cuts to another shot of another girl flipping her hair in a different scene, just to flow nicely for the audience. Additionally, at one moment the music stops entirely for a second, before the beat drops, and at this moment I made sure there was no image on screen at all. This creates interest and excitement in my piece as the audience anticipates the next moment in the video. Here is the final result: htt...
