Propoganda Poster

 


    For my poster I decided to talk about a topic very close to me. I am from the Bahamas, and right now in the Bahamas the locals are fighting the government to stop them from allowing Americans to drill oil from our beautiful pristine ocean water we have, which brings in all of out tourism. While the drilling will bring in a lot of income for the Bahamas, it has some major down falls. If there is one little slip up, it will cause an oil spill in the Bahamas and kill all of our beautiful reefs and all of the species we have under water. So if this were to happen, we would not get any tourism anymore, seeing as our ocean is what brings in tourism, and tourism is our main source of income in the Bahamas. Also me being such an ocean lover, the thought of what could happen irritates me a lot. I did not use any inspiration from other posters, this idea popped into my head straight away, and I went with it, and I think it turned out amazing.

    People should really agree with me because when people think of the Bahamas, they think of our beautiful beaches and ocean, and it is pretty clear that from what I already talked about, these things have a high chance of being ruined if the oil drilling begins. So if you would like the Bahamas to stay as beautiful as it is, I hope you agree with my poster. Lastly I used this color scheme because the colors of the Bahamas flag are yellow, blue, and black so I made that the base of everything, and I used the red writing because I thought it popped the most over the base colors I used.

    This is a really impressive self portrait. The detailing in the hair and eyebrows is impressive. The hsading on the hoodie is great too, it help to bring the image off the page.

    Your self portrait turned out really well, it almost looks realistic! I really love your propaganda poster though, it shows a lot of meaning to what is going on in the Bahamas and that needs to be recognized.

    First of all, your animation of your self portrait turned out spot on and super realistic. It's really cool seeing your work about your home in the Bahamas because we don't have a lot of students from that area. The message is clear and I love how you incorporated the colors on the Bahamian flag into your poster.

Casper's Logo Project

      My idea was to create a logo surrounding what I grew up doing and has been my whole life, diving and fishing. So with the help of my classes ideas, I came up with adding a fishing rod and spear in a cross with a mask over the top, to sort of ressemble a skull and cross bone. I had a lot of fun creating these logos and I really think the logo does resemble me as a person seeing as it has been my whole life.

BW to Color Photos

  This is how all of my images turned out from the original photo, and I am very happy with the results. It took a lot of time, about 2 and a half hours, but it was a very relieving feeling to be done with it when I finished. I went with these choices of colors, because I feel like the fish in the photo that I am holding up, really pops out with either a bright background and a dark fish, or a bright fish, with a dark background. This is because it just really brings your eyes to the center of the photo where that color is so different compared to the others.
