My Magazine Story

For my magazine story I decided to interview my friend, Sarina Vito, about her journey fighting and surviving Leukemia. Sarina is currently a student here at High Point University and continues to inspire others with her story. In my magazine I plan on sharing Sarina's  story and how her struggles have only made her stronger.  I also plan on talking about where and what Sarina is doing today and her every day life at HPU. Lastly, I want to include awareness for Leukemia and want to inspire others to help and get involved in finding a cure. 

The Layout 

Regarding the layout of my magazine I learned how the placement of images and texts really affect one another. I had to experiment with placing my images and texts around in order to have my text somewhat relate to the image. Since I do not have any content written for the story yet, I used the "Fill with Placeholder Text" in order to better visualize the layout. I definitely plan on adding more images to my magazine story.  However, I am struggling to figure out what images to add rather than just images of Sarina. If you have any ideas, let me know!

Still Image Video

Image
Shark vs. Bear The purpose of premiere is to create visuals for certain clips of audio, such as a still image video. I have recently learned about how important visuals and audio can be to a project. Visualization has the power of communicating with the viewer about the topic, which is especially important to those who may speak another language or have impaired hearing. In my final still image project, I tried to visually express what is being said in the audio with the use of animated quotes and images.

Forum 6: Swatchy Schemey

The Image  For this assighment I gained inspiration from my favorite place, my bed! The decorative pillows that are placed on my bed consist of all my favorite colors, which made this project visually pleasing for myself. I based each color I used on one of my pillows. However, I didn't get to use all the pillows since we could only choose three main colors or swatches.  Swatches When I was creating the swatches it was more difficult than I expected. Choosing the first round of colors, as seen in the first column to the left going down, took some time because I had to experiment with different hues in order to find the color that best matched the pillow I was using as my inspiration. However, the difficult part was creating faded colors, as seen in the next two columns, that weren't to drastic of a change from the first color. In order to create this faded effect I had to lower the tint percentages in each box more and more as I made my way to the right. Namepla...

Forum 5: Visual Communication

Overview In this newest rough draft of my audio story I made a lot more improvements. I improved my blog by adding animated text. These animations consisted of titles, quotes, and important points that I wanted to emphasize to the viewers. I was also able to replace pointless images with title frames throughout the audio story to improve the quality. As I continue to work on my audio story I plan to add more animations to the images and the transitions between the images to create a more appealing video.  What I Learned While working on my audio story, I had no idea how to add text and animate text when working in Adobe Premier. After watching the youtube video "How to Animate a Title", I quickly learned how and became a pro at creating titles and animating them. Although I mainly focused on my titles moving from left to right or up and down, in the future I plan to use the opacity tool in order to make the titles fade in and out of the frame.
