prOgram designs

I created a graduation cover that I felt would be very elegant to have at CCHS Graduation Ceremony. I added the school mascot and also included animated pictures of different locations in Cesar Chavez. The quote by Dr. Seuss that is on the back of my program cover is very inspirational towards students that are graduating. It is motivating to keep students on a good path to success.

In this project we used one of our frame photographs to practice using Photoshop to create specific effects.

In this project we were given a frame. We had to use it in our composition.

We also had to be in our photo but not in the center. It was to be in black and white, and we needed to create a sense of visual balance.

I created balance by...photographing myself in a tree that was centered in the picture. I used the black frame to show the darkest color and the white frame to show the lightest color.

We were each assigned a random object to photograph. We could choose to have it in color or black & white. We were to focus on "The Three C's"

According to my peers, one thing I did well was... putting the photograph in black & white and in very good focus.

One thing they suggested I work on was... that it could be taken from a better angle.

I agree with what they said because I actually like it better in black & white than I did when it was in color. I also feel that it could have been a more interesting photo if it was taken from a different angle.

In this project each student was given an egg to photograph. We were to take a photo in both color and black-and-white. We were supposed to exemplify one or more of the following: Creativity, Craftmanship, or Composition.

I believe my black-and-white photo was most successful because the setting of it was different from the pictures that I am used to seeing. It looks as if it was taken back in the 1800's inside of a lantern.

This picture was the cover page for my portfolio last semester. In this project I was instructed to create a picture that best described myself. I inserted a variety of different photos and colors into this picture. I like this photo because at the same time myself and my friends & family is in it. The colors in this picture are very bright and the quote in this picture means a lot to me because it expresses one of my biggest beliefs. I worked really hard on creating this photo and my hard work paid off.
