for my second contemporary media project, I was asked to create a photoshop grunge portrait. the process included following instructions for this link: http://wegraphics.net/blog/tutorials/create-a-colorful-grunge-portrait-in-seconds/. there were four steps in the process. I took a black n white image in photo booth. the second step involved me following the steps on the website above.

6 Quarter Final

I started this class on January 11 of 2016. The first program I learned was adobe illustrator. Illustrator is a relatively easy program to use. After illustrator, We learned how to use adobe flash. It was a very

simple program to use.

 

Using flash I created a project that was for digicom but never made it to the deadline. The project got finished a few weeks later and has been ok by the teacher that it has meet the required standards of what the quality should be. Some of the animation hit a bumpy road at points but I work all the kinks out of it. The main character is bob the box who can't fit through the doors till he learned a secret on how to get through them thanks to the help of the others big box.

5th quarter animation

We are working with adobe flash cs5 professional to create what should have been Digicom projects but are now just animations. The first thing we did at the beginning of the quarter was create our storyline and how it would progress. the next big step was to draw our characters in flash to create our assets we would use for the animations. after that we could start an animation, it took longer for other students to get to this stage but they look good. our flash training in the beginning of this year really helped out.

My story is about a box named bob who can't fit indoors without the info he needs. it takes place on earth at a movie theater and an ice cream shop. he meets another big box that's bigger than him. the bigger box shows him how to fit through doors with a trick he learned over time. bob eventually gets what he wants which is an ice cream cone.

it is not easy being an animator that can't draw well. it required a lot of work for me to get the characters somewhat close to what I wanted of them. there's not much for me to do in any of the acts just some clean up work to smooth it out. the only background scene I have is a sidewalk that everything comes to play on. I haven't made a soundtrack for it yet, nor have I made sound effects for it either.i have an idea for the background music but nothing solid. overall it will be a good project.

a boxed life

written by hunter bott

meet bob,  who as you can see is shaped like a box.  bob has many talents he can sing, he can dance, but even with these talents bob can't seem to fit in with the other boxes.  all of the other boxes are much smaller and seem to be having lots of fun playing playing with each other.  bob watches the other boxes go into the doorway of a movie theater but when he tries to go through the doorway he does not fit.  bob walks away sad.  bob sees other boxes walk in and out of an ice cream shop but bob doesn't fit once again and runs down the sidewalk sad. he stops running when he sees an identical box his size licking an icecream cone.  they stare at eachother.  reachs in his pocket and offers him some money to buy him one. the other box decline and offers to show bob how to fit through the door. bob accepts and follows him to the ice cream shop. the other box then opens the door and goes through it sideways into the shop. bob then proceeds to follow him in by entering the same way. bob bought and ice cream cone. left and was happy. bob went to the movies and watch a movie with other boxes.

charater development

My main character's name is Bob, he is a nervous and insecure guy that can't fit into many places. He absolutely loves pizza and sleep. He can roll surprisingly well for a box. hes from canada. his weakness is small doors.

Adobe Flash Background Project

In my fourth quarter contemporary media class, my first assignment was to create an adobe flash background, we will use layers to animate content, but right now we're going to create 5 layers to hold the background content in the animation. The background content will show throughout the animation without changing.
