I\u2019ve always been very interested in fashion my entire life; therefore, I combined the outfits I made with my skills in styling and photography to assemble this collection as my Zenith project. Because I think this is the perfect opportunity for me to present a complete vision of what I want to keep investigating in my future in terms of art forms. Visually, I\u2019m inspired by my favorite fashion designers such as John Galliano, Thierry Mugler, and Serge Lutens. Therefore, I want to learn their way of visual storytelling through fashion photography that is mythical and cinematic, and the dramatic, performative fashion looks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I started my process by designing the looks and writing my script. I took a narrative line from my art portfolio from my College Application process and recreated it into fashion-based works to celebrate my future as a fashion student in NYC. I created more than eight designs and took four from them, and decided to make all four of them. The most significant issue I faced was the low energy level and motivation after applying to colleges, but my workload is heavier than most people\u2019s; therefore, I need to be very conscious of my time. However, all of them turned out very well! The shooting and editing each took me 2 days, with eight photos in total. After making this project, I\u2019m even more sure and confident about how much I love and am passionate about fashion, I\u2019m very looking forward to my college!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2

class=\"wp-block-heading\">reflection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019ve been doing and loving art and fashion since I was 2 years old, they have been the love of my life, and maybe what I\u2019m born to do. Every time I\u2019m creating something new, it feels like I\u2019m completely a part of myself, and exploring different materials and art forms always makes me feel free. Freestyle provided me with a place to be with a group of creative people like me to learn the techniques and courses under the guidance of unique teachers who can always understand and encourage our imaginations, and this difference from traditional academic schools is what I appreciate about Freestyle so much. I not only gained technically, but most essentially, I think I understand what I truly want to do and who I am as a creative individual. Zenith project provided me the best opportunity to keep exploring my signature in art expression as an extension of the exploration project, the long developing period allows me to concentrate on achieving my ideal effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What I did here is just a start. This innovative and risk-taking process will continue in my future when I\u2019m studying my dream program in my dream city and even in my career; it is my core of the creative process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">THANK YOU SO MUCH FREESTYLE!!!!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Introduction My zenith project is a cinematography using my own fashion design works, inspired by my experience with the college application process.
