Stop Motion

This the stop motion that Avery and I collaborated on together. I personally really enjoyed this project because, I felt like it allowed me to be super creative. I enjoyed brainstorming ideas for the story as far as what we wanted our stop motion to look like. After spending quite a bit of time thinking about what direction we wanted to go with this project we came up with.. cookies. While this isn't a perfect stop motion, I think it came out pretty well. Some aspects were more challenging than others, such as keeping the camera still, making sure to not get arms in the pictures, and opening and closing the oven door. Our cookies made the journey from package, to pan, and finally to oven, and I think the music was a nice touch. Overall, this project was really fun and I enjoyed putting everything together.

Evolution of Taylor Swift and ABBA

  Taylor Swift- the innocent girl with the blonde curls turned into the woman who can't seem to keep a man, and will write a song about him once they breakup. While only 29 years old she has managed to create and maintain her image in the public eye since she was a teen, and she released self titled debut album. For her, there was no going back after that. Her career has only gone up (some may argue) from there. Although, the girl who released catchy country songs in the early 2000's has drifted away from her roots. Taylor has transitioned now to a more "pop" look, and with her new album, has released some darker tunes as well, per "look what you made me do". The way she has managed to stay relevant, even during tumultuous times, is quite impressive. She has even shifted her style to appeal to the masses, a technique that also keeps her relevant, I believe. It is almost as if Taylor herself grew up alongside her fans. She started off as a young girl singi

Collage Piece (2D)

Image
For this piece I drew inspiration from Hannah Hoch. She was a female dadaist around the 1920's and she created abstract collages by manipulating reality. She would take part of people (from pictures), such as faces, hands, feet, and would manipulate them to form a new person. I tried to emulate this by taking my face and putting it onto a scuba diver. I thought it was a fun and quirky way to incorporate myself into this piece. While I may be smiling in this picture, the message I tried to convey isn't so. With pollution being such a big problem on a global level, I decided to put in "fish" made of plastic. This highlights how much our oceans are polluted and eventually, with all the plastic in the oceans, we will be diving with plastic fish. This project was really fun, and I enjoyed working with photoshop- I thought it was easy, and I'd love to work with it again. *7 pictures used: relaxed diver, my face, fish x5, background (ocean)
