Much thanks to Linzi for making the final render to this 5 feet long poster, we were able to submit it for RIT’s portfolio day! This poster represents RIT’s College of Imaging Arts & Sciences (CIAS) and its 7 schools of Art, Design, Print Media, Film & Animation, Photographic Arts & Sciences, School of American Crafts, and Foundations. This poster will hopefully be used starting this year – can’t wait to see it printed!
Linzi and I worked together to make a mailing poster that represented RIT’s College of Imaging Arts & Sciences (CIAS). We decided that we wanted to use the word ‘INNOVATE’ and model each letter to represent individual schools within CIAS. It’s not necessary a new concept, but we wanted to challenge ourselves to create some simple, yet awesome 3D letters out of different objects. First, we split the letters so each person modeled 4 letters. Linzi modeled INNO, and I modeled VATE. After couple of renditions, we decided to replace the I, second N, and E into less detailed models so that it encompassed the other complex letters. We touched up and textured each other’s models until the letters worked together coherently.
This is just a render of the 3D models without the content for the poster. It will eventually be a 4-5feet long poster that’ll be used for RIT’s portfolio day.
I decided to get some of my projects printed on awesome paper-ness. The two eco hero posters were wide format prints, and the Cinema Flash prints were around 8″x12″. They were printed on photo pearl paper which gave them nice gloss to the pieces, and had really nice thickness to it too. I love RIT, especially because of it amazing printing facilities. The prints all together cost around $60 to print, and I’m really happy with how it came out.
I’m currently fixing many of the cinemaflash prints, but once they’re done, I’m thinking of printing them in limited quantities. Anyone interested in buying the prints?
Oh, and I also finished the tree print for CinemaFlash. I made changes to her leg, so it looks more like she’s growing out of the tree root.
I’m still working on the artist print, and the underwater shoots. Hopefully it’ll be done soon.
I fixed my resume to go along with my business card, and made it mailable to companies! I love transparent envelopes, so I designed to make the designs be enhanced the transparent sides. I stickers worked out well too! Hurray!
Last quarter I took an Intro to Photo Class with Linzi. This was one of our projects, where we were supposed to get inspired by an existing photographer, and incorporate their style. Thus, this project of mine is called “Inspi’Lorreta Lux” to credit my ultimate favorite photographer Loretta Lux for her inspirational photography. She takes surreal photographs of children and makes them looks like porcelain dolls. I had the greatest models; Linzi, Caitlyn, and Laura (from top to bottom) whom all had perfect doll like faces. I used photoshop to style the photos like Lorretta Lux, where I took off some blemishes, and fixed proportions of their face & body. I love taking photographs with pale pastel colors with a hint of one strong color, so I also incorporated that into the model’s clothes, and their makeup.
With the help of Terry, I finally got around making the business cards!! Every business card is customly made, with variation in the keychain, metal rings, and the designs.
I’m hoping that these business cards will get me a job this year – haha. I can’t wait to give them to people!!! X3
