  1.  This image looks like it would be difficult to but myself into because of how much is going on in the background, I feel that it would be troubling to make the lighting good as well. 2. This image gave me some inspiration because I wanted to do my project on someplace in nature, I feel like putting my face in the foreground would be challenging and fun. 3. I found this funny as it is a pretty easy fix or request to do but whoever made the edit did it in a funny way. 4. I like the illusion of reflection on the water. I think its neat and I could be used to make some pretty cool effects in photoshop.

      In this project we had to take a photo in which we felt like the subject was being emotionally  impactful, this image shows uncertainty and wonder as the subject looks out of the window with curiosity. As for the color types I chose this was based on Adobecolor.com and its color wheel feature. I chose colors that I felt could go with each other but also be different enough from teacher. Another goal of mine was to catch the eye of the viewer.      The Triad color scheme uses multiple different tools in the adobe photoshop catalogue such as the the quick selection tool, lasso tool and the magic wand tool. I feel as if this version I struggled with the most as it was the first one I made out of the three, I also like the colors on this one the least as I just am not the biggest fan of yellow and it was a color adobe said would go with the others.     The second photo uses only the magic wand tool and I personally find it to be my favorite...

  This photo from the video I personally brought me closer to my emotions becasue it reminds me of how sometimes music is all people have. This image to me shows a man who is clenching onto what is to be assumed his guitar as if it is the only thing he has that is actually his. This image reminds me that for some music is the only thing they have to enjoy. While I, myself enjoy listing to music frequently and it is a way for me to take some time to myself and reflect on what is goin on in my life. The man in the image looks sad as he clenches onto the guitar as if he is giving a hug to a loved one. It also appears the guitar is worn down and old, possibly a family heirloom or the man in the image has been using the same acoustic guitar for a long time and it might be all he has. In my image there is me standing in front of a window looking into the distance. The image shows a building in the window giving the setting some sort of downtown. there is also trees and a cloudy sky outsi...

  For this work I wanted to base my statement off the idea that, it seem as if now people are always to uptight about every little thing that I going on in the world. I wanted to push the message that is it not only ok to but its good for people to take a step back from all that's happening and breathe. It allows for the person to calm themselves down and take a mindful moment to themselves, ideally this can allow the individual to realize that their struggles are temporary, not terminate and that they will pass with time. I drew inspiration from the outdoors and vintage national park posters for the background image as I believe that being outside in nature is the best and most optimal for achieving a relaxed state. With my current Illustrator skill I found it difficult to really put and make details in the background that didn't look silly so I decided to stick with a simple format without much detail. Overall I'm happy with how it came out and I really do mean the messag...

 2-13-24 Owen Hudkins When creating this logo I wanted to keep it simple enough so that It could be shrinking down to smaller sizes or blown up to large sizes. I like the black and white one the most, as I fell it is the simplest and most elegant looking. When designing I did not want to just use the basic fonts that are already in illustrator, so I was determined to create my own font for the letter O and H, I believe that it came out nicely with the O being obviously placed on top of the H, while also having some separations between where the two letters would touch. That was probably the most difficult and tedious part of the whole project, getting the parts of the H to war around the O while also still maintaining the scrip took was a struggle, but I believe it came out nicely. The inspiration came from golf courses around the country who have distinctive logo, while simple in design they are all recognizable for their own uniqueness.

  Dear future self,                       I am writing to you in my second semester of college at the University of Tampa. I currently live in the Vaughn dorms with my roommate Matt, he is new for this semester and a lot better than my roommate from last semester. So far, I am really enjoying college compared to high school, I feel that the workload is more. But I also feel that I have more time to do schoolwork. I also feel like I have more free time in general to do extracurriculars such as working out or even school sponsored intermural sports such as football or baseball. I play on a team with friends from the frat I joined, ZBT or Zeta Beta Tau is pretty much what I dedicated my first semester of school towards. The process of rushing the frat was a time consumer but I view it as worth my time. I’ve made some solid friendships that will last a lifetime while joining this fratern...
