Orphan X



Orphan X has a lot of secrecy and anonymity and I really wanted to bring that feeling to the cover. With the hooded, faceless individual out on a cloudy night the cover encapsulated just that. A few tools I ended up utilizing were hue and color adjustments, selection and masking and the content aware scale which was my favorite.

  AND WE'RE LIVE This last assignment was a little tricky for me. At first I didn't think much of building a website, but after the past couple week of analyzing so many different website, an efficient and simple website isn't that simple. What was important for me was that my website was easy to navigate. It shouldn't be some complicated jigsaw puzzle. I created just a few clear tabs with a simple design. Not too much action with a little color.  It was a proud moment posting all my work. I also created a couple new images to test out my new Photoshop skills. Thank you everyone for all the feedback and assistance throughout the past few months. Good luck with your future endeavors.   Link to my website: KaiDesign

 Fantasy Avatar 2.0 This was a very interesting project. Manipulating pictures in a way where the final image doesn't look like it's been edited has been a skill I always wanted to learn, which is why I chose to turn myself into an Avatar. There were quite a few tools that I used that helped me transform my image to an Avatar. There's the Liquify Tool which I used to change the shape of the nose. I also used the Brush Tool to change the skin color to blue. The Lasso Tool helped me enlarge the eyes, and the Elliptical Marquee Tool edit the pupils.  Citation https://pngimage.net/ https://entropymag.org/the-poetics-of-space-outer-space/

Cancer Awareness      I wanted to bring more awareness to Cancer and how many people are affected. I spoke with a friend who has vast experience in this area about the poster and what would be important to portray. She mentioned that o ne very challenging result of cancer treatment is hair loss. Whether it's fashioning a bandana, wearing a wig, sporting a styled haircut, or going bald, these individuals have to find coping mechanisms for their hair loss during this trying time.      I originally made the shirts colorful, but I decided to black it out, allowing the emphasis to be the hair (or lack of) on their head. This way the reader can visually see the different ways many individuals with cancer need to cope during this trying time. Also, the play on word used with ‘hair’ catches the readers’ attention as something out of place while drawing attention to the characters’ heads.
