Cartoon Project


For this project, we attempted to create a Sesame Street cartoon. Our theme was "Sesame Street Comes to WAHS." They're out of their element, but they still keep the same character. Our inspiration was obviously Sesame Street and the new Muppets movie. I am satisfied with our work. I think it is really cute. Next time, I think I would spend more time coming up with a story line.

Photo Editing Sites


Photofunia.com offers instant effects applied to any photo you upload. It was very easy to use, and the uploader was very fast. There was pretty much no work involved, but the product was very cool. Photoshop in comparison requires much more work to customize the editing of your picture. This site might target an audience who doesn't really know a lot about editing, but loves the effects. I think a link on the webpage would be good because using this site was a good experience. 
Citrify.com offers very easy editing that produces great results. What's not cool is that it doesn't have that many effects/filters. However, the ones that it does have are very cool and easy to adjust. It doesn't have tool pallets like Photoshop does, but I don't mind that too much. This site probably targets people who aren't very good with technology or editing. A link on the webpage would be nice because I would like to use it at home, but I might not remember the name of the site.

My Kid Could Do That


For this assignment, we tried to create a piece resembling the work of Marla from the movie "My Kid Could Do That." Marla was my inspiration. I tried to use different brush tools to create a sense of glowing lights in the background of the lake the swan in swimming on. I am happy with this piece. Next time, I would like to use a photograph to create the glowing lights effect.
