Portfolio Project














This is my final portfolio. This includes every project that I worked on this semester. I kept the colors just black and white because the colors of my projects vary so much. My favorite was probably the code or the vector illustration.

Animation Project


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Xo9L1BymIo&feature=youtu.be


Here is the link to my project. I couldn't get it to post on blogger without it being blurry, so I added it to youtube instead. I started the project with pictures of myself, and created them into silhouettes. I created everything else in illustrator and then added it into photoshop after.

I did the image based on Elvis Presley's "Can't Help Falling In love with you." I imagine them in their home, but the rest of the picture is like a future dream the couple is having.

Magazine Edit

I went off of a travel magazine, with the frame looking like a polaroid photo. I used pictures of my trip to Peru as places to travel to.

Falling Flower

























This is my photo-shopped image. I took a picture of me jumping looking down, and combined it of a flower as if I've fallen and am spun to the side.

Simpson Code

 This is my coding homework. I made Homer's shirt off white so that it is able to tell it is colored.

Vector Assignment


For this project I used a picture of my nephew. I ended with 17 main layers at the end of this project. The hardest part for me to do was his face.

Monster


I decided to turn the monster into one that is dancing in a park. The pink foot reminds me of a dance. I didn't look anything up while creating this image.

I switched my logo to a fitness tracking app. It is easy to track how many repetitions at what weights you do. It also can remember specific machines you do. On the app you can check your logged progress by machine, body part target, or overall progress. I wanted the boxiness of the squares and the gradient to move from the left to the right and be more colored to the right. Also the Journal page in front of the calendar is to emphasize that you can do more than just type in that you went to the gym.

Cat

I chose to do a cat because I love cats. I have an 11-year-old cat that I have had since birth at home, and her name is Rosie. I can't have her down at school with me because I live on campus still.

Image result for dell
The two companies I chose were two technological companies, Dell, and Lenovo. The one I think is most successful is Dell. I feel it is more successful because it is advertised more, and it is a bigger company. I think both logos have an open feel to them, like they are advertising to everyone and not just to any specific age group. Both logos have bold blue, and are monochromatic. The blue is a primary color, meaning it is more familiar. It also draws the customers eye to the logo. The circle around Dell draws the eye into Dell even further. Both companies are mechanical. This gives both logos a futuristic look. It also gives the customers a sense of trust in product and company. Lenovo's company logo also is italicized, which gives the logo a feeling of "moving forward" in the world. The "E" in dell also gives the futuristic feel. Lastly, the letter "E" in dell touches the d and l, almost like it is tilted to "fit right in." The Lenovo letters do not touch, and are thick enough to see far away.

5 Company Ideas

Image result for chevrolet bench1) Custom Bench Seats from Classic Vehicles

To start, these chairs are custom built from 1970's vehicles and older. There are multiple bases the customer can chose from, and multiple customizations for each base. Some of these would be original box frames vs refurbished box frames, or a couch vs an outdoor bench vs a half vehicle. Also These are appealing to all ages. Older generations possibly grew up with these vehicles, and younger generations find the benches to be cool to look at/sit on. 

2) Group Activities In New Areas

This website can kind of be though of as a way to go on adult field trips. It can be hard to meet people when you move to a new location. It also can be hard for people to try new things when none of your friends have time, or will go with you, to join a new activity with you. On this website you can make an account to be able to see organized, public events near your location. If you "upgrade" your account you are able to see, for example, group events that are specific to upgraded accounts. You can sign up to join any events that appeal to you, and the event will happen as long as a certain amount of members join. A member can turn in a group event request as well. This is to be approved by a site worker. The worker then validates the event, and posts it as a group event on the website.


3) Home Design Software

This product is a futuristic home design system. First you pick a room you want to decorate/redecorate. Then you use a 3D scanner remote to scan the walls of the room. Next you scan each object in the room (either as an individual item, or multiple). The data you scanned is then uploaded into the home design system on the computer. Once all the objects are in the simulated room, the customer is free to arrange and rearrange the products as they please. There is also a feature to put in preferences of style and the simulator will rearrange the room to show your preferences. 

4) Sing Language for Babies

This program is for parents to communicate with children sooner than the child is able to speak, while teaching the child valuable language skills. The lessons change compared to how well/poorly the child is picking up the skills. This allows for better bonding between parents and children, and allows the child to jump start their communication skills. 

5) Waterproof Phone Kit

The customer buys the kit for waterproofing their phone. The material is heated, and the phone is placed into a bin of the protective liquid. Once the liquid dries, it is heat resistant and waterproof. The product is nice because it is thin and unnoticeable. The product protective against scratches as well.

About Me!

Hello,

My name is Cassandra, or you can call me Casi. I'm a first generation college student from Minnesota who likes to challenge herself to get over her fears and try new things. For example, going to college scares me, but being 1600 miles away from home makes it less scary. The concept is backwards from what is expected, and I don't always understand how it makes sense either. 

Due to my nature, here are some phrases I am bound to say at some point in time/words that I cannot disguise my accent with:



  • "Ya know?"
  • "Bag" (it will sound like 'beg')
  • "Boat" (this one is strong!)
  • "You betcha"

By week two or three my accent is mostly hidden other than these phrases or words with long O's. 

I currently spend my time juggling school work, choir, exercising, and hanging out with friends. I love animals, especially my cat Rosie. I also like to sing, learn songs on my piano, and practice sign language. 


I transferred in with over 40 credits from dual enrolling during my junior and senior year of high school. This is my first semester as Advertising and Public Relations major. 


I have always had a generally strong creative side, so this major seemed like the best fit for me. I hope this class helps me to understand how to translate drawings into digital art, and how to create my own images. I also hope this class helps me to narrow down what direction I want to go with major.


My dad and I have a 1959 Chevy Apache PU that we have had since I was 4. I eventually want to make a logo with the truck somehow. Here is a picture of the truck.
