The 10x10 that wasn't 10x10.

 The original idea for the project was to take an image and then reduce the size of it to a 10x10 pixel photo. The problem that i learned really quickly is that its hard to actually convey an image with only a 100 pixels. I originally started with an image of the Mona Lisa, i used colored pencils to fill in my grid. The issue that i didn't realize until i was actually done was that i had not drawn hard enough, and because of it, it was hard to see the image. I quickly decided that i did not like the Drawing, and started over. I chose the Lebron James logo, who is the greatest basketball player of my generation. While this logo was much bigger than 10x10. I enjoyed working on it more, and i also think it ended up much cleaner than my original piece. I am posting both the pieces that i created so that way you can see where i started to were i finished.


Materials: Black and Blue copic markers, Pencil, Ruler, Bristol board paper

In my stop motion i wanted to focus on creating a visual representation of something that you would normally see in the span of years rather than just fifteen seconds. I did this by by showing a simplified version of a tree growing. For my setup i took a box and cut a hole in it so that way i could lay my phone on top and use it as a tripod. Supplies- green paper, protein powder, copy paper, tape, cardboard box, phone

High Five! Starting out was the hardest part of this project for me. I really had a hard time thinking about how i would put my own spin on it. I found that faces were really creepy no matter how hard i tried to make them not creepy. However, while i was doing a scan of my hand i thought of high fiving my copied hand. Then that's when i decided that i was going to make the words high five out of hands. The project ended up being roughly 6 feel long and 4 feet high. I had to stand on a chair to actually get the whole thing in frame. Materials: Copier, paper, Exacto knife, glue, and a cutting board.

The Feel Good Final! There is a lot of negativity in the world. I cant lie and say that the world is a perfect wonderland of kind people. However, when i first started college at Quinnipiac university in Connecticut. I was was put with seven other guys in a dorm, and all seven of these guys were very negative about anything, and never had anything nice to say. A year later, im at the University of Tampa. This was such a huge change for me. Not just because its seventy degrees everyday and always sunny. No, the biggest part that changed for me was the people around me. My roommates and my close friends here have been truly amazing to me. I wanted to spread this love and positivist to more than just my small group of friends. I did this by going around the campus on one of the move in days for new and some returning students. I walked around the campus while my friend Richard filmed me, and we simply complemented people. Telling them that they are awesome, or beautiful, even simply a
