Note Logo




For this last project, we did a little bit of deep down exploration of ourselves. We though deep down about who we are and who we will become. I took that information and I compounded it into a logo that describes me. I started out with a few ideas that weren’t going anywhere, so I cut them. Here they are.







I knew I want to go down the music path, so I tried to incorporate that. The result is a sleek, sharp, music note. I chose the color black for my fill because it represents sophistication and elegance. 



When making this I took my music note sketch



and tried to recreate it with the paint brush tool. But the paintbrush wasn’t giving me the thin, sharp, pointed edges that I wanted. So I used the pen tool. I manipulated lines and their curves, and that is was gave me my sharpness. 



I got my finished product, but I didn’t like It. And I knew I had to LOVE it. So I messed with it. I filled the center. I colored it pink. I put my signature on it, around it. Everything you could possibly imagine was done to this poor little music note. I finally decided on this design.

And believe me, I love it.

I wouldn’t go back and change anything.

PSA

The idea of the video was to hook the audience with something more dramatic and enticing, or in other words, a girl who is mad at her boyfriend because he got caught cheating. The viewers get to watch her argue with and accuse her boyfriend as they fight about what he did. What the audience doesn't know is that he is actually cheating off her school work. We tried to create an "Ohhhhh" moment, a kind of realization that dawns upon the audience when they finally figure out that he's cheating off her, not on her.  First, we sat down and looked at a list of PSA topic ideas, stuff like suicide awareness and drug abuse. When we had each settled on a few ideas, we brainstormed basic plot and synopsis ideas of each topic, and based off of those, ideas, we settled on Cheating. We figured it would provide the most interesting story for the PSA.  After deciding on a location, we visited it to finalize the decision. As the production designer, it was my job to ...

End of Semester Reflection

Cheating PSA I thoroughly enjoyed making this PSA. The whole point of this project was to catch the watcher's attention and then teach them something meaningful. The idea of the film was to show a conversation that could be interpreted two different ways. Upon first watching the PSA, one would think that the boy is seeing another girl behind the main character's back. However, toward the end of the PSA, it is revealed that he actually passed one of her assignments off as his own, cheating off of her, not on her. We spent about two weeks making this film. We lined up our actors, set up a filming day, gathered equipment, created the set, and filmed it. We edited it for the next couple days and then presented it to the class. On filming day, we learned last minute that the guy we had cast couldn't make it to the set, so we scrambled and asked Trevor to fill in. He did a fantastic job, and the PSA still turned out great. Along the way, I learned a lot about the effort th...
