Final Exam Part II

A very big part of Henrik Knudsen's art is dramatic lighting. So, I used a dark area with a spot of bright light to create this picture with Knudsen in mind.

This "artist" is nothing but a lie. If he thinks it is right for him to take people's artwork and then sell them for an outrageous price, then he has no mind to think with. The people he stole from had their pictures, their right, and their buissness. There will never be a right for him to do what he did. If this happened to me, a simple block on the website will not do. If I gave him no right to due this, a lawsuit would be banging down his door. The money owed would be each dollor from the art he sold and some more. He would have no money to pay his internet bill and steal artwork anymore. Hopefully, he wasn't trying to be a con-artist (Get it~?).

Me, and Earl, and The Dying Girl (Surreal Selfie)

For my Surreal Selfie, my two parts of surrealism are the no legs for "Me", as well of the levitation. another surreal factor is the scale for the text, as though it is here. If you don't know, Me, and Earl, and the Dying Girl is a book about a girl, cancer, and two moviemakers. I took and made the cover for this project.

Part III (Part II)

The five artists I've chosen are Ben Hiene, David Meanix, Daniele Guido, Chris Jordan, and Kara Walker. Although they differ in what they do, their unique style is still art. Daniele and Chris are the most different. Daniele uses hands and paint while Chris uses parts of his facts to show hiw much of a problem his fact is. However, Chris and Kara show an impact on how we live. Chris with his facts, and Kara with her shadows. David Meanix and Ben Hiene both us photgraphy and papers in their art. Although Hiene uses paper more, Meanic uses it to give his photos their torn vibe. Unlike tearing, Heine uses paper to create to versions of reality combined into one. Although these artists are different, they are world known and loved by many. Each one of them inspires another.

Part III (Part 1)

This ad shows the impact of forest fires on us. To create this scene, a burn tool would be needed to show the effects on our lungs from the smoke. For the perfectly lung shaped forest, trees would be selected and moved (free transform) to make this shape. The burn tool would also be needed again to shadow the trees.

This ad tells us not to "buy exotic animal souvenirs". To lighten the scene, the dodge tool would be needed. The blood is, of course, fake and is created by red paint, dodging, burring, and randomly selecting and erasing sections to create the splatter look.

This one is a simple ad about fear and sharks. Since the two water scenes are the same, all that was done was erasing the fin. To do this, the fin was erased once it was selected (to not ruin the water).

How trees are wasted is shown in this ad. To put the same tree and trunk on two different pieces of paper, one paper was printed without the trunk and the other without the top of the tree. To create the inside of the tree, another inside was taken, free transformed, and placed on top of the trunk.

The power and danger of smoking and how it cancel future years of your life is shown through this ad. To take this book and add the message, the other text was erased from the book, and the color was painted back to the page. Then, using the text box, the message was added.

I like these ads because it is a creative way to enlighten people on many dangers. It is a simple, yet eye catching warning.
