Digital Surrealism Prezi (Part 1)


In CyberARTS, everyone had to choose a surreal artist from a list and do some research about him/her. Then we had to put the research into a Prezi. (Presentation software)
I chose Max Ernst.

Here's the link to my Prezi:

Mr Meli's Math Poster


This is the Math Poster that i designed on Adobe Illustrator for my old math teacher. He asked my CyberARTS class to design some math posters to hang in the Math Department classrooms. 
The one I did describes how I think when I'm in math class.

My Realistic Chess Piece Drawing

 

In Art, each member of our class had to choose a chess piece. I chose the Pawn because i thought it would be easier to draw :p. Anyway, I wanted to put in chess boards because i thought it matched the whole "Chess Piece theme". I added the TV because around the time when we started this assignment, I was obsessed with the music video that Bush came out with for "The Only Way Out",  back in October. And in the video, Gavin Rossdale (The lead singer for Bush) was singing inside a TV. So that video gave me inspiration to add a TV in my drawing. 

My drawing shows Rhythm and Pattern because the chess board wall and floor look like they never end and just keep on flowing while the checker board repeats itself.

PS: I apologize for not posting in a while. I've been doing alot of studying.

3:6:9 Video Written Response

In CyberARTS, we were put into groups and we had to pick one of our school departments (eg. Wood shop, Art etc.). My group and I chose Cosmetology. During CyberARTS, we went to the Cosmo room and we each took 3 pictures and 3 videos of the girls curling hair and doing makeup. After we got our shots, we opened up iMovie and put the shots and pieces of video together. I was in charge of the music, so I added the Elevator Music :D. 

The strengths of the video, were that our group worked together and were each given a job to do. The weaknesses were that a member and I were confused about how many shots were allowed to take, each; and had to keep asking for help. 

The music i chose impacted the emotion of the video because, the classroom we were in was really chill and layed-back. So I thought the elevator music used, suited the video.

The editing decisions we made suited the music because we chose comfortable fonts and colours. we also added blending, so 2 slides would blend into each other at time with the music.

The pace and transitions assisted to create mood and emotion because of the way the slides blend in to each other. I think it adds effect and adds a chilled mood.

 I've always like working in a group. I've just always found it alot easier to finish a project or assignment with a few more people. I also think that working in a group, makes the assignment more fun. My experience with working with this group was a good experience. I had fun working with them and i loved making the video.

Here's the Video. Hope you like it :D
