Homework #5

     In this article, Dustin Stanton started out as being a drifter and production artist at one of the biggest companies in the area. He gets inspired by all the posters through the hallways he walks by everyday for work. Once he saw all these amazing posters he knew he could make one of his own one day. When Dustin suggested to take a beautiful picture of a magnolia flower and he used that instead. I can relate to Dustin because when I worked on photoshop with my first project, all my other classmates had different layouts which were more creative then mine. But now by seeing them it encourage me to get better at photoshop.

Homework #4

     When I read the article "Everyone is altered", I learned that Photoshop and digital beauty is very critical on the television and movie screen. I think it is cool that the characters you see in the movies look very different from when you see the celebrity on the red carpet. It sounds insane when a studio executive spends from $500 to $2500 on just one photo! That would make me happy if I got that much for taking a quick shot of a famous actor. I want to visit Hollywood one day or visit a Hollywood set to experience how digital beauty gets put into the works on to the big screen.

Homework #3

     The article "Nike's chief of design doodles all day" was a very interesting read. I am very familiar with Nike because I am a athlete and I have about thirty Nike shoes on my shoe rack. I would be so lucky if I got to be in designer John Hoke's shoes to experience working for Nike. Just the thought of being able to sketch a shoe that could possibly be sitting on the shelves in malls and being able to wear them would be a dream come true. I used to be obsessed with buying shoes so this article is something I really was looking forward to read and learn to work with a big company like Nike.

Homework #2

    Niels Diffrient ted talk was a very inspirational story. His creativeness in design advanced him to make a great design and advanced chair that you could sit in. He designed the chair so it could recline to your extent and the structure of the chair made it so that our tailbone and spine can have the best comfortable experience. And the adjustable headrest makes the chair look comfy and when you recline the chair, the headrest rises up so that it can reach the neck.
