In english we started our research essay and I chose my topic, human trafficking and preventing it. In digital media we then learned how to composite images and create something new with them. We first did a couple of funny images to learn how to actually create them. I did a couple snails on skateboards and then added my friend to the sky.
Next we started on our final composite. My inspiration for this project was to create something that revealed another thing. I wanted to show that things aren’t quite what they seem when talking about human trafficking. It is a very complex topic that a lot of people do not know about. I struggled a bit with blending different textures and selecting the right thing. The brush tool was very helpful for this project and I will definitely use it in the future. I am most proud of my concept on how I executed it. It was difficult at first but I am happy with the ending.

multi layer art project
In this project we were instructed to create a 2D stacked art project using our illustrator skills. First we sketched out our idea and I decided to create a stacked wood art.
We then took it into illustrator to trace and create.
This was my final in Illustrator.

I then created a video in After Effects showing the process of completing my multi layered art. I had a bit of trouble towards the end rendering it but it worked out in the end.
I then created a colored version.
I took it into After Effects and created a 3D assembly video.
