CALLIGRAM


 

in this piece, i was tasked with creating an image using the calligram style. calligram is using a word or piece of text in which the design and layout of the letters create a visual image related to the meaning of the words themselves. to start this project i had to write a letter to myself 20 years from now.  after writing the letter, i picked words from that letter to create this final product. 

i thought this was a really cool concept and i know i will enjoy looking back at this and remembering the letter to myself.  i think i could have done a little better on this one.  looking back, i would have blocked out more sections with color to add more dimension to the piece overall.  my mom loved this one!

final project yay!  this was an animation using photoshop.  WOW, this was a LOT of work.  i appreciate disney so much more now.  it was a lot of work, but i learned a ton and thought my final product was cute and cohesive.  being a perfectionist there are a lot of things i might do differently with more practice and time, but ultimately i am proud of the outcome and can say with certainty i learned a lot. probably more than i did with all my other projects combined.

file:///C:/Users/Brooke/OneDrive/Documents/UT%20shit/Digital%20Media/PIKACHU/PIKA_CODE.html pikachu was created using dreamweaver.  the actual product had movement in the background. pikachu is obviously cute and i enjoyed watching this one come to life.  i was proud of the final product. using dreamweaver to code art is very different than drawing, painting, etc.  as an artist, programming an image was a little daunting to me, but it was so fun to complete the project and see what i can do with this program.
