I just went with ideas that seemed somewhat funny and weren\u2019t too difficult since I\u2019m not very confident in Adobe Photoshop. However, this project helped me learn a lot of new skills, and I\u2019m glad I took the opportunity to experiment with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Motion Graphics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We began exploring Adobe After Effects to create a motion graphics video, learning how to bring simple shapes and lines to life through animation. This involved working with compositions, experimenting with various animation techniques, and syncing visuals with audio to enhance the overall effect. While starting out with basic elements, we quickly realized how these tools could be used to build dynamic animations.<\/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=\"24 25 p6 Motion Graphics MaisieR\" width=\"790\" height=\"444\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/M04I1GJtbhs?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<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"560\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Rennie_Maisie-My-Simple-Motion-Graphics-1024x560.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-803\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Rennie_Maisie-My-Simple-Motion-Graphics-1024x560.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Rennie_Maisie-My-Simple-Motion-Graphics-300x164.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Rennie_Maisie-My-Simple-Motion-Graphics-768x420.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Rennie_Maisie-My-Simple-Motion-Graphics.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">After Effects Interface<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>At first, I didn\u2019t like After Effects\u2014I found the interface overwhelming, and there were way too many buttons. However, the more I used it, the more it grew on me. Over time, I began to appreciate the endless possibilities for animation, and while it\u2019s still a bit confusing, I\u2019ve come to enjoy experimenting with different effects and techniques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Multi-Layered Art Project<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The multilayer art project focused on transforming a 2D object into something that appears 3D. I collaborated with my friend Ynez\u2014she handled the sketches while I worked on the Illustrator files, as those were our respective strengths. Our artwork was inspired by our Angel Hunting story, featuring a table set with a plate for each of our characters and a pair of chopped-off angel wings at the center, creating a striking and eerie visual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_5704-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-759\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_5704-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_5704-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_5704-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_5704.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_5703-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-829\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_5703-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_5703-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_5703-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_5703.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_5707-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-830\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_5707-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_5707-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_5707-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_5707.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Production Videos<\/h3>\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=\"24 25 p6 Digital Layered Art KajsaH MaisieR\" width=\"790\" height=\"444\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NPEEeHmDROc?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<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=\"24 25 p6 Layered Art MaisieR\" width=\"790\" height=\"444\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZM5R9GvJTl4?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<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Illustrator<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"525\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-28-at-10.24.49\u202fAM-1024x525.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-826\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-28-at-10.24.49\u202fAM-1024x525.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-28-at-10.24.49\u202fAM-300x154.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-28-at-10.24.49\u202fAM-768x394.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaisieR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-28-at-10.24.49\u202fAM.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Illustrator Interface<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Artist Statement &#8220;The Dinner Table&#8221;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We connected our wood art to our world-building by depicting the angel hunters gathered at a table, eating angel meat. We designed a bird\u2019s eye view of the table, showcasing five plates, one for each hunter. Transforming our 2D art into 3D was both time consuming and confusing, especially since the layers in Illustrator became complex. We ran into issues with duplicate lines, which I had to manually delete one by one, taking up a good amount of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Animating the video using 3D spaces in After Effects was surprisingly easy since I\u2019m already familiar with moving the camera in Maya. However, I still prefer Maya\u2019s camera controls because they\u2019re easier to manage. Overall, I\u2019m incredibly happy with how this project turned out! My teammate and I worked really well together, and we were able to create something fantastic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Funny Image Compositions We started learning how to use Adobe Photoshop, focusing on blending images together using the selection tool, layering, and applying filters.
