The day is 1/26/2023 and I have been assigned to do a greeting or celebration card in Adobe Aero. Honestly, I thought this was going to take more time. Perhaps maybe a day or so? In reality, it only took me maybe an hour. I quickly latched onto this when I was watching the lecture/tutorial in class and it was super fun. Luckily I still remembered it from last week.
Below you should see the video of the project I have done. It is a happy birthday card when you clicked the dinosaur “happy birthday” will pop up. The astronaut is animated when clicked on, and so is the armadillo. In 50cm proximity, the happy birthday text will also spin. Hope you enjoy!
Hi there. Today I am going to write about the AR app that I was required to do for this week’s homework. I was at first going to do My AR Girlfriend for a joke but my friend suggested Five Nights at Freddy’s Special Delivery which peaked my interest much more. As a person who liked FNAF all my young life, I thought it would be fun to take a peek at and oh boy, what fun I had. It was a genuinely enjoyable experience. It felt like pokemon go but better.
I had issues with the app freezing up on me the first runs but after maybe 4 tries accepting all the privacy stuff, it let me play. I got to shock and collect deadly robots. Who does not like that? It was totally taxing on your phone’s battery because it used location and camera, but if you are just staying in your home playing this game occasionally as a light entertainment snack, it should not be a big problem.
This definitely will be a game that I will revisit on my spare time and keep on my phone until I run out of data or memory. Thanks for reading!
I feel like one of those ladies who takes pictures of their food before eating it and then their whole man comes and mashes it up for the funny haha jokes.
(This youtube URL doesn’t work because it’s a Short but if you want to see what I’m talking about, here it is.)
Anyway, jokes aside, I decided to take a picture of my luxurious Ikea meatball plate and edit it in photoshop because it already is delicious in my mouth, so lets make it delicious in our eyes. I have no idea how to color grade or touch up on photography, so I looked up tutorials on how to touch up and edit specifically food in photoshop or in whatever other Adobe products I have been forced to buy because it’s “InDuStrY StANDaRD”. Here is the result of perhaps maybe 2-4 quick YouTube videos. They were not really quick honestly. They rambled on about tools for too long when it’s obvious what they were. Also, if you are an instructor and put up a YouTube tutorial for us students to watch instead of ACTUALLY instructing us, you are a terrible teacher and wastes my entire time spending money on this program when I could just GO ON YOUTUBE FOR FREE.
I think this turned out quite scrumptious looking. The colors pop, there is not weird blips or dips in the food and the depth of field is pretty okay. Listen, I am not in the photography program so if it actually is butt awful, I honestly do not care too much. I personally think it looks really nice. So, yeah. I hope you enjoy it because I know I do. I used the spot healing tool, played with the color graph line hue tool and tried sharpening up, and blurring some edges in photoshop.
Hi there. It’s me, Jamie. You’re probably wondering what got you in this situation right now. Well, you wanted me to make a blog assignment about this assignment, so here I am. I came up with my idea from a video game that I really like that is called Ready Or Not. It is a realistic game where you play as a SWAT officer.
I used After Effects for this project. Honestly wanted to go with Premier Pro for this but I did not see a difference in using either or, just some techniques and shortcuts are not there for the vise versa programing. Anyway, only big problems that I have ran into this project for is finding the right clips and audio for this trailer. I had to mash together a bunch of game footage and find vocals only of Marilyn Manson singing Sweet Dreams. Perhaps also my terrible organization in AE. But, I still managed to get through this project. It was pretty fun. Thanks!
