FInal Project :)

Final Project planning sheet

Walt Disney World Christmas Parade Animation

Here is my Animation that I created. I am very proud of the video that I created and think it looks pretty realistic to having the floats go right by you at Disney World! Hope you enjoy as much as I do! 

Drops of Jupiter Lyrical Collage

In this piece I chose the song Drops of Jupiter by Train and used the song to create a collage of what I picture when listening to the song. Here it is!

Custom Graphic

For this assignment we used photo shop to create an image using the brush tool and a pattern. I created my pattern for the Turtles back and found a pattern on google to use as the fish pattern. I decided to go with a more cartoony ocean scene for my picture. I created the turtle pattern by opening a new tab in photo shop and making using a smaller resolution and then put the green  scale type look on using the pen and brush tool.

Here is the site I found the fish pattern from: http://www.backgroundlabs.com/item/seamless-fish-scale-pattern/

Magazine Cover

For this project I created a magazine cover through photoshop that looks like a parody of People magazine.

Photoshop Assignment

In this assignment I needed to put myself in a place that I have never been. Although I have been to Disney many times, I have never been on stage with Justin Bieber in Disney World. I think this looks very realistic for my first time using photoshop!

Lauren Conrad Vector Illustration

For this project I started an image of Lauren Conrad that I found online as my original image and used illustrator to create the more cartoony image. I am very proud of how the project turned out!

Robot Mermaid Exquisite Corps

I chose to take on the Mermaid robot for my project and I am very proud of how it turned out. I really like how the colors mesh together and how you can see the original drawing in mine however you can also see my artistic changes to the drawing. This was a very neat project and I am looking forward t the next!

Christina's Couture Wedding Dress Company

I chose black and white for my logo because I think black and white look very sharp and classy. My company is a high end custom dress company which needs to be seen as classy and upscale rather than just a common dress company. I chose the cursive because I looked on many other high end dress company sites and that seem to mainly use cursive as their font style. I added a logan below my company name to insure that customers knew that my dress company is a CUSTOM wedding dress company and that any picture they have in their head of a dress can come true as we work to make those dream dresses.  I also put the wedding dress in the picture so that when customers see the logo they know right away that it is a wedding dress company and don't mistake the company for just a clothing line or some other couture brand! Overall I really like how the logo turned out as I think it is easy to read and comprehend. I would definitely look into this brand of dresses if I were looking to buy a wedding dress!

Buffalo Sabres Calligramme

          I chose the Buffalo Sabres logo for my Caligramme because I grew up in Rochester, New York which is about an hour from Buffalo, New York. When I turned four years old, just like any other four year old I decided that I wanted to start playing a sport. Growing up in Western New York, hockey is a huge part of life so naturally as a little four year old girl, I decided to play ice hockey. Learning to skate took me about a year and by the age of five I finally was able to have a stick and start learning the game. I immediately fell in love with the sport and along with playing hockey I loved watching it. 

          We have an AHL team in Rochester called the Rochester Americans and they are the draft team for the Buffalo Sabres. Because of this I learned many of the players names in Rochester an then followed them through their career in the Buffalo Sabres. The best thing about the Sabres is that they bring me a feeling of home when I see them play. Watching their games reminds me of being home in my living room watching the game with my family and cheering for them. The other atmosphere they remind me of is going to the actual arena with all my friends and having the actual smell of the ice and roar of the arena all around you. I am excited for the Buffalo Sabres to travel down to play the Tampa Bay Lightening this year, and yes I will still be a Sabres fan even though i live in Tampa now. I could never change my love for the Buffalo Sabres, however I am willing to adopt a new Baseball team while I'm living in Tampa. 

Logo Critique

I chose the Verizon logo because Verizon is a very successful company, meaning their logo is very well known. I would say the logos target audience is people any age from about ten years old to eighty years old. Verizon's target audience changes depending on the exact product they are trying to sell. The younger generation often wants the newest and best product, while the older generation, who is paying for the services want the company with the financially appealing plans. I believe the logo is very successful in reaching the audience because just about any person you talk to is able to recognise the Verizon logo. The colors and style are  very simple and easy to read. I also believe the check mark is a very positive and easy to understand symbol, checkmarks are always good and can be understood across many different language barriers.

The logo is very successful as a food chain. I would say the audience is drivers often because it is a fast food restaurant. Since it is fast food they want their logo to be well known and easily recognisable so that their restaurant is chosen over any other fast food restaurant and that the logo can be seen from far away. The color choices do a nice job of accentuating each other and being able to be seen from far away. I think they are successful because their logo is so easy to recognise and therefore people will stop without having to actually read the nam

e they just have to recognise the picture.

This logo is very successful as far as social media companies go. The log does not quite match the point of the social media site, honestly I'm not really sure where the logo or name of twitter came from, but it is pretty successful and I would say one of the most recognisable symbols of the current generation. Even my 85 year old grandma knows that when she sees that logo it is for "twitter". The color choices are very pretty and fun to look at and the block form of the bird is easy to see and simple which is very powerful for logos. I think this logo is so successful because it is so simple people all over are able to easily tell it is the twitter bird. 

The Starbucks logo is a very successful company. the name of Starbucks actually came from the book Moby Dick and was originally going to be named "The Pequat" after the boat in Starbucks, however Starbucks changed too Starbuck and the symbol looks kinda like how you picture Starbuck in the book. However the logo is very easy to recognise and can easily be seen when looking for your favorite coffee company. The colors green and black and white go ver well together and the detailing stands out with these changes of colors. This logo is very successful in reaching their audience morning workers can easily identify their favorite morning routine. 

This logo is very successful logo and foundation.Even if someone doesn't know what the World Wildlife Foundation is they would be able to recognise the panda and probably are aware that pandas are endangered species so it is pretty easy to understand what they stand for. The colors are very powerful as the black and white are easy to read and bold. I think they are so successful because their logo is bold and very powerful.

Mickey Mouse HTML 5 Project

For my Project I decided to create Mickey Mouse! I made this cartoon Mickey from memory and used mainly bezier curves! I think he turned out really well and I am very proud of this cartoon as my first ever attempt of a cartoon through HTML 5 code.

All About Me

Hello all,

My name is Christina Burroughs and I am from Upstate New York (yes. Upstate, not Long Island). It seems as though everyone I have met from New York assumes it’s the City or the Island but I actually grew up in a rural town outside the City of Rochester, which is about an hour from Niagara Falls! It’s quite a change from what I am used to moving from a town where everyone knows each other to a huge city where very few faces are familiar, but so far I love it. I decided on the University of Tampa for two reasons. The first reason is that I am absolutely head over heals in love with Walt Disney World. Ever since I was a little kid my family has visited Disney two to three times per year and it has become a home away from home to me. From my love for Disney I decided during my sophomore year of High school that I wanted to attend College in Florida. After looking at all of the Universities and colleges in Florida, I fell in love with the campus at the University of Tampa. I am looking forward to learning all of the new techniques in this class as I am not very strong with computers now, but I love the idea of learning more. I have always dreamed of working for a large marketing firm and creating great commercials, so hopefully the skills I learn in this class will aid me in my journey to reach my dreams. There’s a little about me for now, just a small town Disney praising girl who packed up her bags and headed to college.
