I started working on another infographic to help Bridget in moving the project along. This one had a lot of icons that were the same as other completed infographics so I re-used them. Three of them needed new icons such as politics, startups, and research centers. This is still in its draft phase with approval pending form Bridget before I upload them into the box.
Below are the scenes I have been illustrating for the COM 301 E intro. Maddy has been giving me lots of feedback for editing which has resulted in overall a cleaner and more complete look to the illustration. As you may recall from last time, the person I drew did not have a solid color shirt and a thought bubble that matches the color of the circle of the first clip. This will allow the circles in the first clip to transform fluidly into the thought bubble. For my next set, I am making a frame of a laptop with a video bar for the three characters to sit in. Maddy suggested yellow for the laptop. This is the first draft of the laptop. I will be waiting for feedback and the completion of Thuy’s characters before adding them to the laptop frame in illustrator.
Here’s my STA Semester Showcase Video that I made really quickly. I did it on PSY 352, perhaps the biggest project I had last semester. I’ve learned a great deal from it, and I look forward to continue being an STA.
This week I’ve been working a lot on the illustrations for COM 301E with Maddy and Abriella. Here are the scenes that I’ve drafted. I’m waiting for approval to start putting Abriella’s character into mine and merge the layers for animations.
After receiving some feedback from Maddy (our Art Director!), I made these changes.
This is my video for the spring STA showcase. I put this together pretty quickly, but I think it came out alright.
I’ve also been working on creating a new blog banner for the 2020-2021 school year, which has been really fun to draw. The theme is “the garden of your imagination,” and all the STAs submitted their caricatures plus an imaginary creature or plant. I tried to make it a little bit hazy and dreamlike, because that’s what I pictured when I heard the theme. The one problem was that Thuy’s caricature didn’t have a full body, so Suloni suggested I draw a magical mirror to put her reflection in.
It’s not 100% done yet, but here’s some progress pics:
Here’s a new nighttime version:
We have been assigned to create other objects and all to fit within the garden banner we are creating. Suloni tasked me with making a fountain the fir into the background. Below is my first draft of the fountain and my refined edits.
