Game Unit - Bob Tales: John's Adventure
My game is about a blob named John who has to try to survive each stage / challenge that comes his way. It's a puzzle platformer. The process started off with me designing the levels, making the characters, and then putting it all together to make the game. My favorite part of the project was when I finished and I was officially done with it. If I had more time to improve my game, I'd make clearer instructions, a clearer goal, and I'd make it easier to understand the game in the whole. |

Phenakistoscope
A phenakistocope is a device used for early animation which used the persistence of vision principle to make the effect of motion. A loop is a repeated sequence of certain events, e.g. multiple pictures coming together to make an animation and playing over and over again. The loop works with my walk cycle because the pictures I used show the shape in different positions of walking and it gives the effect of walking. I think the phenakistoscope is the most interesting old animation devices. I found it semi-easy because it wasn't that complicated to draw the pictures and the rest was done using technology. I u

In the top photo, silhouette was used. I used it since it was one of my top favorite photos for the photo project. I think that the strongest element used was value since it shows the different shades of the sky and the color of the trees. The bottom photo was used for emphasis. I enjoyed this photo because it focuses on the main point of the picture; me. I feel like color was the key element in this picture because without the color there would be nothing to emphasize on in the picture. liked learning about the photography but I didn't like taking the pictures due to the fact that some of the photos were hard to get or hard to take, and some of it was stress (for me) making sure I had every photo done correctly and had every photo taken.

This animal is a cheetah and a giraffe combined. I was going to add the white fur on the neck, but it messed up the neck in my opinion. The polygonal lasso tool and the magic wand tool helped my project the most in order to create it. I think that value and space would be the best elements because of the way the animal is positioned and how it looks, while unity and balance would be the best principles because the animal ties in with the picture and I tried to proportion everything in a certain way.

I think the strongest element in the tessellation would have to be line and the strongest principle would be pattern, only for simple reasons such as the line creates the pattern and the pattern is for the tessellation. The computer is easier to make a tessellation rather than drawing it because with the computer, you can just use a mouse to make the tessellation whereas drawing it would be longer since you'd have to draw and redraw the shape. I think that this tessellation is a success, but i have seen other tessellations that look better than this. The artist inspired by this project is M.C. Escher.

Font-Bot Project
This is my FontBot project. The reason there are two is because one of the version to the right is made with satin to make the picture look better and the version to the left is the normal picture without anything added on to it. The font I used is a sans-serif font. I think that the font I used for the project fits the robot well for the way I made it.

This is my square one art project. It's a tree with a torch on it, illuminating the tree and giving some light off into the darkness. I drew the outline of the tree first along with the leaves, the torch, the grass, and then the moon. After drawing the outlines, I made lightly drawn lines for the tree and darker lines for the torch. Then, I drew the different values for the torch and the moon. The rest is very straightforward, for coloring the rest of the picture and filling it in. I'd use a tablet to draw over a mouse, only because the tablet drawing is a lot more similar to real drawing than using a mouse and drawing with a mouse is very uncomfortable.
