My Pencils and Personal Project


In this project in graphic design we made pencils. First, we made one that we followed directions, and the second we did it ourselves. To make it, first we put the grid on so the objects would snap to the grid to make it easier. Then we made the shapes snapping them to the grid, and then we used the live paint bucket tool to color the pencil. First, I learned a lot about illustrator such as the live paint bucket, the pencil tool, and how to use the grid to get objects to snap to align the shapes to make your creation. Then the last one on the bottom was my personal project, pac-man because one of the first games I played was pac-man.

Professional Project Review

In this video is is a bunch of small birds not letting a bigger bird in their group and the smaller birds end up getting launched up in the sky from the telephone pole. The emotions that are on the characters face is one element I could apply to my own work because it shows how the birds are feeling. One element I have added to some of my own works is the squash and stretch that is in the video like when the birds are launched, and when they hit the ground. The best part of the animation is when the birds start pecking the bigger birds feet to make him let go of the telephone pole wire. This work could improve by adding more emotion to the bird's faces.
