For my Urban Landscape, I had chosen a dark background that would help the blue color of the buildings stand out. As well as the orange windows I had used to make the building stand out more. I had also added doors to the majority of the buildings to give them a sense of entry into the building. On 2 of the buildings I didn’t because I had wanted them to be like by-standing buildings. As well as the heights of the buildings keeping them very unique in there own way by length and height.

Desert Landscape:

For this Landscape I wanted the cactus’s to be the focal point of the project because to me in the desert the cactus makes the desert the desert even alongside the sand the cactus is one of the top mentioned when talked about even cited in movies when they take place in the desert. For the sky, I had tried to make the clouds blend with the sky to give it more of a real setting. As well as the ground was brown to compliment the sky and cactus.

Aquatic Landscape:

For the Aquatic Landscape, I had wanted the sun and the water to resemble a sun rising but you wouldn’t be able to see the sun fully which is what I was going for. I had used 3 different forms of blue to give the water a better representation.

Extraterrestrial Landscape:

For this Landscape, I had the moon and a different version of the sun depicted as a more orange-ish color to give the sun a cooler feeling to it. As well as the moon I had changed the gradient to give it a more space-ish vibe to it. Also the stars I had a good amount to the E.T landscape. The last touch I had added was a black hole type of pathway that you could interpret it in any way that you wanted, maybe it was a path? maybe it was another universe that had a different sun, moon, and stars. I was generally making the Extraterrestrial Landscape a different version of how it would normally would be.

● What did you learn?

-In this Project I learned that creating nursery rhymes or projects in general can be very complex yet simple at the same time. Like for instance when I started this project I over thought it but when I asked for help from the professor he used the most simplest tools that I was using as well but I didn’t look at the project from a broader perspective, but after he showed me I became more confident and more driven in creating my nursery rhyme.
● What was easy?

-In this project some aspects like using many shapes and line segments were pretty much the easiest for the project just because using shapes are easy and lines as well.
● What was challenging

-At first the concept around the whole project was challenging, what I’m basically trying to say is that finding a focal point that would make my project standout was very difficult. Such as using contrasted colors like black snd white to give the image a basic but strong look towards it if that makes sense. As well as the shapes being constructed/twisted around because I pretty much couldn’t find a abstract way to do it until I took time out to actually watch the video on Humpty Dumpty to give me some ideas on how to interpret it better.
● How could your submission be improved?

-I believe it can be approved with more comfortability. I think having more of that will help me out a lot. For example people who are in my class already know how to use the tools and have complex views on how they want to attack their projects when I really don’t because it is my first time ever taking a class like this.
● How can the professor improve the assignment in the future?

-I believe one improvement he possibly could make on the upcoming projects is a present day for projects like these and have the students say why they chose it and explain every step used and have them interpret the project in their own point of view.
● How might you apply your knowledge in future assignments or work scenarios?

-I will apply myself more in upcoming projects simply because I know I have what it takes to get an A in this class. As well as me putting more time and effort into these projects because when I do that the grades I get always are very high and I’m usually very proud of that.
● How did a specific reading, video or example inspire or help you?

• In class my professor records the class and sends it to us every class so if we missed a class or didn’t really understand something he basically helped us out by making a recording that showed everything he did and explained in class by emailing it to us. That helped me out a lot especially because I’m new to this digital media arts world I suppose.
