Comic Strip


It is very important to save your selections, because if you don't, you would have to recreate it every time. When you save it, you can access it any time and use it again. 
We used the brush tool differently this time because we used it to color. We had to choose black-and-white line drawings from the internet and color them ourselves using the brush tool.
The most important tip I learned from the comic website was to have pauses in the dialogue. I tried to do that in my comic.

Eddie the Donkey



This is the Eddie the Donkey project. I went all the way to Creative Director, giving him a spaceship!  So, some techniques I used in this project that I could have used in the Thor project are more masking, blending, and finding the right image size and quality. Some of the pictures in Thor were blurry, but now I know how to find the right images.

Thor Movie Poster

I wanted to have the person viewing the poster to notice Thor first because, obviously, the movie is about him. That's also why I made the title stand out quite a bit. I want people to say "Oh look at that cool poster! Looks like it's for the new Thor movie, I want to watch it! now"  My sketching influenced my poster because it gave me a rough idea of what I sort of wanted it to be at the time. I knew from the start that I wanted the title at the top, and Thor at the bottom, to stand out the most. The rest of the characters just went along into the background based on their importance.
