Self-evaluation for section 4 2D design

For the painting I decided to do a poster for Seattle to attract new tourist and to show that our City is more then a raining city. I started by looking at different poster that where made for the 30's travel and saw that they are very organic and use a lot of nature. In the end I decided to do Seattle in front of the mountains and I added pine trees to give it a more welcoming feel to the city. I used black paint on the skyscrapers to help them pop out of the mountains and painted the sky blue to give it a warm feeling for someone looking to visit the city of Seattle and it natural areas around it. For the nature project I decided to do a picture with colored pencil to create different shades and give the illusion of shadows and depth in the drawing. I used green for the tree brown for the stumps and used a baby blue for the sky and added grass to give a real natural feel. I added a mountain in between the tree to give a sense of depth in the drawing. I think I did well on both of the projects.

Examples of good and bad compression content delivery


More IGN Weekly Wood Videos
This video shows good examples of compresion with a high quality looking video of Naomi in high def and it has little grain in it.






Here is an example of bad compression it is only in 240 pixels which makes it low res and with no option to make it more high res it is only put up on youtube in 240 so it shows the quality of the bad compression used on it.

Portfolio 3 exercise 2 Monet's color palate 2d design

The color's used in the painting are limited in that they are very monochromatic he uses orange and blues a lot in his painting. I think his first painting stands out the most as it has the best detail in that you can see father in the picture and it is not as hard on the eyes.

The first one conveys a wintery feel with the limited light and with white paint be the most used.
The second one is more happy with the oranges and reds used in it.
The third one is sad with the silvery blues used and the heavy use of blue conveys sadness
The fourth one is outdoor in nature the happiness nature gives us when we see the tree and wildlife. It also has a springtime feel to it.
