In my computer graphic

class we learned many

things. We worked in

Illustrator and Indesign.

In illustartor we learned

how to make photos

using vector art instead

of pixel art. Vector art is

art using specific pointsto create a picture um-

like pixel art which is

little squares together to

make a larger photo. The

advantage of vector art is

that when you zoom into

the picture you dont see

the little square like on

pixel art.

We had to create a style

for our photos. mine is

called unisrokle, because

i use one stroke, any

color and only circle to

create my photos. every-

one has ther own unique

style, in class we had to

find out our own.I arranged my photos

right in the middle of the

page. i used circles to

overlp the background.

WHAT IVE LEARNED

First I started making the redboots

with the basic shape of the shoes

using the pen tool. Then I picked

the color of the shoes by using the

eye dropper tool. I used the same

color for both shoes. After that I

got into details of the yellow parts

of the shoe also using the pen tool

to draw and eye dropper to color. I

then made the background which is

a bunch of black shoes. I then used

the pen tool to draw the next shoe

which was plaid but I didnt know

how to make it look plaid so i used

a stripe pattern.

After that i drew themickys

shoe in the background. First

I Made the general shape

of the shoe. Then Made the

inside of the sole layer mak-

ing it a red color. Then got

into details with the mcdom-

alds sign and logo. After that

I choose to make the shoe

strings yellow because yellow

was not standing out. Finally

I made the shopping basket.

The general idea was to make

everyone think of food or

mcdonalds as soon as the

looked at the photo. So i went

into more details to make that

known by the M logo in-

stead of the nike logo and the

mickys instead of nike across

the front of the shoe.

Concept:

I was trying to put two of women favorite things

together. I wanted to show how women were

seen which is classy and elegant in this photo.

Craft:

I got a nice sized purse that draws people at-

tention. Then I got some fancy heels to fill the

purse with. I then placed the heels in the purse.

I zoomed in so that the purple heel would be the

center of the photo. I then took the picture.

Composition:I placed the bag in a white background so no

one would get distracted by the background

and create contrast with the bag and the wall. I

choose the heels because they draws people at-

tention because of the hue of the shoe. I put the

purse slightly to the side to show the side pock-

ets. The purple heel was placed in the middle

of the purse so that would be the first thing the

person would look at because the hue of the

shoe stands out.

CRAFT:

I placed a chair behind the person in the photo. I then instructed them to jump off of the chair. I

took the picture while they were in mid-air. I focused my shot on her shoes.

COMPOSITION:

I choose to take the picture while she was jumping because i thought it would make the picture

more like a video because it shows action. I had to snap the photo at a specific time to catch her

in her jumping motion.

CONCEPT:

I was trying to show that even college students can be kids!!! And still showing ow a college

student live.

CRAFT:

I placed a shoe in a bin in the bathroom and placed shoes in the background on the dresser. I

tilted the camera towards the shoe in the bathroom but made sure the ones in the background

would reflect in the mirror. then i took the picture.

COMPOSITION:

I choose to take the picture in the bathroom because i wanted to placed the shoe in an environ-

ment where the shoe stands out. But I wanted to keep all the bathroom things in the photo as

well as if the shoe belonged there.

CONCEPT:

I was trying to say that the shoe can stand out in an environment where it not suppose to be

and put the shoe and an ironic place. And still how the background can stand out.
