Cinemagraphs

 I origionally planned to photograph one of my cats when they were actually asleep, but this one was sitting in a good pose/spot even though she wasn't yet asleep (and she got a bit grumpy when I started moving her tail). I thought this would be a good one to make since cats are something that tends to move around a lot, or at least continually shift when sitting still. She rolled a few times while taking pictures, and didn't want to keep her tail in certain positions (mainly anything that wasn't up against her or haning straight down). The cinemagraph ended up well, though more frames for a smoother transition would've been better

I had origionally planned to put a whole person in the picture, but learned that it is a challenge to type in a way that doesn't move most of the arms. Sometimes you'll see things where it seems like somebody is typing super fast, and this is like a reflection of that. The camera apparently moved sometime during the process of taking pictures, despite the fact that it was set on a solid surface and only had the button pressed one, in a mode to continuously take several pictures. There's one time where the front hand seems to blip forwards, but otherwise this cinemagraph is fairly good, and there's even one person in the background that is noticably frozen mid-movement (and the guy infront of the frames looks kinda like a picture if you don't look directly at him)

Cinemagraph Ideas

For my first cinemagraph, I'm going to photograph a cat sleeping (or the dog if it doesn't work), and only the tail will move.  This will be done at my house. It will probably require 4 to 7 photos, erasing everything but the tail

My second cinemagraph will be of a person typing. Only the fingers and hands (nothing from the wrist up) will move, and I'll either photograph somebody in class on the computer or get my sister to help on her laptop at home.  This may need anywhere form 2 to 6 photos, and only the body (excluding hands) should need to be erased, unless there is any background movement

Gradient Duck

I don't like using making an image fully of gradients, though this did let me figure out how to change the size and shape of a radial gradient

Adobe Illustrator Flowers

This program makes it easier to apply gradients from specific areas (like the center), though I'm mostly unfamiliar with the program for now. I dislike the way it sorts layers so far, as I've only found options to move one layer deeper/higher or directly to the top/bottom, without indication of what layer the objects are on. The objects also seem to get in eachothers' ways while while trying to select only one or a specific group

Book Cover Design

I chose Kurloz to draw because he's one of my favorite characters, along with being more newly revealed, so I hadn't really drawn him yet
Homestuck is a piece of multimedia that doesn't have any genre that fully covers it, though it is normally referred to as a webcomic. The story is mostly seen in a game-like style, sometimes talking directly to the reader and/or becoming extremely meta. There are many settings in Homestuck, including houses, forests, different planets, different universes, voids, places that completely disregard and concept of rational timespace, dreamworlds and more. There really is no set mood either; it can be funny and humorous (Hussie also includes the readers ideas in the story, often picking up jokes made by the fandom and making them show up once in a while), serious, dramatic, heartbreaking, or just plain confusing
The first cover reflects the more joyful parts of the story, with several of the characters from Beforus together, alive. The second cover reflects more of the darker side of the story, showing the design of the strongest enemy/challenge in Homestuck (so far), along with showing strength through the god-tiering.
The first font was used to seem more like Alternian/Beforian text, since some cannot read Alternian without a guide for translation. The hemospectum was also added into the text, for having a large influence in that xenoculture and being noticeable to Homestuck fans. The second font mimicks the text used in strifes, showing a battle ahead

Barbie Project

This was based off of the sprites of characters in Homestuck
As an example, here is John:

It pretty mush ended up showing a range of movement for the looks, though I couldn't seem to get the left foot to turn in a way that worked. The origional image was also pretty pixellated, which decrased the quality of the final image. It would work better if I could find a full-body image that was higher quality. It was pretty difficult to resize and warp everything to the correct size without distrorting shapes within each piece, like the tie

Magazine

I don't read magazines and have no idea how to place the titles well
I think I might've also chosen a bad color scheme

Pegabi

It takes a bit to change all the different colors, and I haven't found a way to change an area into different shades of a chosen color easily

Path Text

I had origionally tried to make the words sqished/larger in different sized areas while using paths as a base, but it's hard to get the text to warp correctly
People look wierd in text

Words

It would be nice if you could change the words for the type mask after you look at different layers
The effects are fun to mess with, and the text in the bottom right has several different effects

Aisha

It's hard to make something look normal when it seems unnaturally skinny to you in the first place
It's hard to keep a correct face shape, and also to change breast size

Retouching

Skin patterns can get kind of annoying fo follow when using the patch tool
Also, I don't like working on .jpg's because it messes up the evenness of colors, like how ajusting the eye color can show several vastly different colors all squished together

Blemish Girl

For some reason, the eyes seem to have had a lot of their color messed up in the origional image, so every other color I tried changing them to ended up looking blocky, with several different sets of colros
Though the slight blurring does make the skin look better, I think it takes out the other features too much, which shouldn't show as blurry

Walk Cycle

I ended up doing the full eight frames for this animation

Stop-motion Animation

Dolores and Merriam also worked on this video
Keeping everything in line was much harder than expected

Superb Peacock Snake

Peackock spiders are interesting little things, and Superb birds of paradise are funny

Gradients

I think that I accidentally left some of the gradient tool partially transparent or something, since the colors took on the effects of the noes under them, like the speaker-thing getting lighter as it went inwards

Butterfly Reflection

The gradient thing took a few tries to get right
