Transformation Project: Reflection

For this project I photographed my nephew. I chose to take pictures of him fo this project because I wanted to have playful silly transformation. my first idea was to have toys coming out of his head because he is a kid but that quickly changed because when I photographed him, all he wanted to do is stand like superman and that hit me, my nephew should be transformed into superman! To perform this task I changed the background because his pose looked like he was flying in the sky so I put the background to be the sky. Then I thought I did not want him to be typical superman so instead of making his suit blue and his symbol red, I did the opposite and instead of naming him as superman I named him as superman Ely. There you have it! My nephew Ely was transformed!

One thing i really enjoyed about this project was writing my steps out. I believe that really helped me understand how to work photoshop in a deeper complex level and it made it easy to create my transformation.

One thing that was difficult for me for this project was cropping out the excess background, that was really hard for me and frustrated me. If i would do this project over I would try to relax and not get frustrated at myself because it affected my work ethic.

Overall, i believe my transformation was strong and doing this project taught me a lot about how i work, and taught me how to work photoshop in a different light which i know will be very helpful in the future.

Transformation Project

Do Now: Which typeface would you be?

If I had to be a font; I would choose to be the Sans Serif typeface. I would choose this because I like that it does not serifs at the end of the letters and Sans Serif has a simple elegance which i really enjoy. The specific font that I would be is Josefin Sans.

Well Designed Logo: Not Familiar With

I think this logo is very well designed for many reasons. One I like that it is combination mark. I also like the fact that you have to oberserve the image for a good five seconds to notice that the A in artist and U in united join together to create the symbol which is a pencil. This logo I really enjoy becuase it is trying to objectify the idea artist united and the fact that the two words connect in the pencil really show the point that they are trying to make. Overall this logo was very creative, out of the box, and most definitely very well designed.

Favorite Logo: Well Desgined

My favorite Logo:

This is my favorite logo becuase it is universal. I also like this logo becuase it is a combination mark and I feel like the symbol is universal and the words always connect back to Mcdonalds. It is also my favorite because the words catch your eye. It makes you think oh what are you loving and makes you want to try Mcdonalds food. This logo was very well designed and this is why it is my favoirte logo becuase it was perfecttly made and really catches your eye well at least mine.
