Popeyes –

What worked – I had a actor I find very funny. I found the skits of him being amazed by the current world pretty funny.

What to do better – more screen time spent on the different chickens. It would have been better him not spewing chicken while being in a massage chair. it was a bit gross.

Doritos

What worked – I love older women doing martial arts. It was really funny having a chase seen with them on scooters.

what to do better – more old ladies fighting. more explosions.

piece to be proud of

A piece that I have created in my design class, is my redesign of the book cover for Psycho in a Ukiyo-e style.

It’s one of the first pieces that someone other than my friends when I showed it got excited. With this project, we were tasked to redesign a book or album of our choice in the style we were assigned for out last assignment. I chose Psycho, as its a very good book, along with a great movie. I knew in Japanese myth that Red Spider Lily’s were used in funerals and anime if they are shown it means someone was going to die. which tied into some of the characters in Psycho’s fates. My teacher Gabriel was worried at first when I showed him initial sketches but after explaining the premise he got very excited. Which in turn was pleasing to me, as this was one of our first solo projects in design. It helped kinda solidify that yes, I was learning design and I seemed to be good at it.
