i wanted something that I could edit and use the organic style of vector images. posterizing the image was difficult because to get a good one would've been right in-between two selections. there wasn't much prepping for. anything in illustrator.   I wanted something that I knew how it looked and how to keep it the closest to original as possible, and I recently had this picture taken and I liked the way it turned out.  I learned lot more about the curved pen tool and its uses How were you able to problem solve? I used a lot of readjusting the layers and the individual crops. I asked for advice from neighbors or my teacher.  I focused a lot on shape and value in this piece. I wanted the parts that are important features in my face to show in the picture.  I am pretty pleased with the final product, it could be a lot better but I am pleased.  I would give my eyes and my eye lids more detail and just greater detail throughout. 

I had a good amount of time to find good and meaningful quotes and don’t to mirror the feel of the quotes. I learned alot about how to use the curved pen tool and how to adjust your lines and I learned alot about how to make lines smooth and flow the lines with more accuracy.  I moved the words around enough to make them different than just copy pasting them. I wanted the word style to match they lay they were layed out. Oh it added a whole different layer to the challenge. Instead of just getting the words layed out you had to pic matching colors and matching everyother aspect of it. I prefer black and white because it looks simple and not as much about finding matching colors. I think the final product was better than I imagined it to come out, I thought they would be dull being black and white but they made them seem more professional. I would have used my time better but I was pretty satisfied with the result.

the scope of the project was to recreate a music video that is as close to the original as possible. Our process started with a lot of story boarding and talking about how we wanted to show the video with the highest obtainiable accuracy. It took a lot of filming and we had to use A lot of improvisation because of weather complications but we got through it. Well we had an editing party so that was fun, and we got all of our editing finished in that time. I learned that I hate storyboarding and that it takes a lot of time and thought to create a music video I learned a lot about how to edit Audio and how to slow down footage and speed it up and editing it overall. I stayed with my project time and I got mine finished in time. But I learned a lot about how to communicate and how to make the most amount of the time we had I would use my class time in class better and more effectively and I would have used more time editing and getting a better edit because I felt a little rushe...
