We got to choose the images and colors we did in our final design, so I went with a Parks and Recreation theme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"25 26 p6 Motion Graphics JordanF\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/K74aD4n1vVU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I really liked making the motion graphics because I see a lot of things like this in videos online and it was cool to learn how to do it myself. I especially liked the line revealing the text graphic and I think I will use that in the future. I enjoyed learning how to use After Effects because it offers things that other Adobe apps like Premiere do not offer and the workflow is better for motion graphics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Multi Layer Art<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the multi layer art project we were told to make a 3D piece that represents an aspect of our world building project. I chose to depict the character that I created using the stacked wood style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"520\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~JordanF\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/CF4ADF29-8115-4131-8874-819C62E6D07B_1_105_c.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1141\" style=\"aspect-ratio:0.65001665001665;width:367px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~JordanF\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/CF4ADF29-8115-4131-8874-819C62E6D07B_1_105_c.jpeg 520w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~JordanF\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/CF4ADF29-8115-4131-8874-819C62E6D07B_1_105_c-195x300.jpeg 195w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 520px) 100vw, 520px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the original sketch I made for my layer wood art.

I ended up taking one of the pieces out of my project completely because once I saw it all stacked together I realized it look out of place, that detail was hard to catch when I was working in Illustrator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is my final product:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~JordanF\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/D464584A-295F-48FF-9A26-997C582C6D50_1_105_c.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1144\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~JordanF\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/D464584A-295F-48FF-9A26-997C582C6D50_1_105_c.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~JordanF\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/D464584A-295F-48FF-9A26-997C582C6D50_1_105_c-225x300.jpeg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am proud of the work I did on this project because these projects that involve lots of drawing are difficult for me because I am not very experienced in drawing. After putting in the work to make the 3D layers make sense and look correct when they are all stacked, the piece came together nicely! Reflecting on it, I wish I did the background slightly different because I think it looks a little off and it was very delicate when it was cut out because it was just a single layer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Motion Graphics For the motion graphics project we were introduced to After Effects and how to make various graphics like revealing text with a line and making graphics sync to music.
