Imovie

In this project we used pictures and videos we took of our studio site to make a video.  I decided to use almost completely pictures and 1 short video.  The background song is "Beethoven's 5 Secrets" by the Piano guys.  I chose this song because it starts very somber and then crescendos into more joyful music.  This makes the beginning of the video more somber making the current conditions of the site seem sad and pathetic.  The music crescendos into the proposed sketch-up model.  Objects are added 1-by-1 in the video to show the site being built up and ends with people being added to show the vibrancy and popularity of the site.

INDESIGN Portfolio

In this project we learned to use Indesign and used it to work on our portfolio pages.
(I'm not sure why the above right picture is stretched. The indesign version and jpeg are both 8.5x11)

In these spreads I used a grid system to create a datum across each page.  I also created columns of pictures and text.

AutoCAD Test


Revision cloud was used for the trees.  Topography was changed to dashed lines and P edit/l type gen were used to regulate the dashes.  The line weight of the topography was lowered and the paths, trees, and water thickened to improve readability.
