Week XLIV

July 28, 2022 By Adrian McKee

Week XLIV

Another slow week of many small tasks.

Course Graphics – EEV Computational Biology

This was a rush job to be done before Thursday morning. Really the only urgent thing was the studio backdrop, since Thursday was filming.

The studio wanted a muted blue collage similar to another course.

The images selection itself was a little limited (a lot of computer code and graphs) so this was my very first draft.

I searched for some moreĀ  sciencey images on my own (thanks, Wikmedia Commons) and smudged them on top similar to the French textbook collages, at Maddy’s suggestion.

However I wanted to try a properly layered collage, and redid it all from scratch.

Then, I lightened it a bit and removed the watermark (as requested).

I’m pretty happy with how it came out! I haven’t seen my final draft in the studio but this is how tests looked for some midway drafts.

Photo IDs

I haven’t been logging these on my blog weekly, but since this week is slow, I’ll post a few batches.

Of 9 assigned, only 2 had hiccups! There are 8 here because one of the hiccups was the same person being assigned twice. That’s much better than the 50+% rate of unusable submissions a few weeks ago.
