Kinetic Typography

Here is my first shot at motion graphics! After Effects was foreign ground for me before this project. This is kinetic typography for Aziz Ansari on texting with girls. :) Enjoy!

Modeling is art... right?

Well, it's finals week, which for every college student means frantically shoving massive amounts information into our brains in hopes that we will retain it long enough to pass the exams. For art students, it also means putting out work, a lot of work, for numerous projects and attempting to stay inspired for the next seven hellish days of the semester.

That being said, for this photo shoot I had to improvise, as I could not find a willing model to give up their study time for an art project.

So, I teamed up with my mom, and this is what we came up with. Modeling is art.

I have such respect for professional models who are able to move and control their bodies in such a way that allows the photographer to capture a beautiful image. I have a little bit of experience in modeling, and I love using it as a method of self expression.

Photography Fun





So, this I am just getting started on my latest Graphic Design III project. It will be a compilation of photographs; most of them involving body paint and text. The text will read "Design that needed guts from the creator and still carries the ghost of these guts in the final execution". This is the motto of Stefan Sagmeister, the graphic designer in which the book is based on and inspired by. Can't wait to shoot more!

Bounce

Typography
Typeface Design
"Bounce"

App Icon

The first app is inspired by the word "x-ray". The app would function as a database of movies. It would include basic information about the movies, trivia, movie trailers, and photographs. The main function of the app would be to provide behind-the-scenes information. 

The second app was inspired by the word "swim". The app would function as a fitness planner and diary. The user would log his/her swim time and distance, and the app would generate personal plans according to each user's goals. 

The third app was inspired by the word "palace". The app would function as a finder for shows and other entertainment in the Las Vegas, Nevada area. It would use GPS to locate the closest shows, and provide information such as directions to the venue, prices of the tickets (as well as the ability to purchase directly from the app), and nearby restaurants and bars.
