Dentist Portrait.

DentistPortrait
For a recent school assignment, we had to photograph a business portrait of a person in their work environment. I was lucky enough to photograph a dentist, who also happens to be my best friend's mom, so it was a fun shoot!

I've been a little more experimental with photoshop, especially at improving colours.

Facebook Timeline Cover Image

Facebook Cover Pic
I just switched my Facebook to timeline. I figured I might as well have some fun with the cover photo, so this is the first thing I came up with. It's my arm, which explains why it's so thin!

Edit: Facebook has changed its dimensions slightly so I had to make a new version:

Edit: Facebook has once again changed their profile thumbnail size/position:

A portrait of me.


Here is a photograph of me by Jake Lichty. It was shot while I was jumping, and I also must have done a lot of damage to my hair because those curls stayed just as curly overnight. It's kind of fun to be in front of a camera and try to capture different personalities you hide.

A little sculpture I made using a regular clothespin and little clothespins. It looks really nice on a shelf. :)

I decided to have some fun with high speed splashes again. They didn't turn out as well as they did last time I attempted it, but I think that's mostly because most of my time was spent trying to make the background less distracting. I don't know how to make these very well, and I definitely don't have the best equipment for it at all, but if I ever could afford it I definitely want to create water sculptures like this amazing guy.

I think I might start a series of photos like the first one, where objects are just about to hit a surface. I liked the symmetry of it.

Dori The Giant Redesigned!


Hey everyone. I spent all day redesigning my blog layout. For those who are new here, this is what the old template looked like. I spent all day creating it and coding it! Let me know your thoughts and opinions, and please let me know if you see any bugs.

I still haven't linked all the pages and I'm still fixing up a few things.

Cheers!

Black Swan Poster

Black Swan Poster

I watched the movie Black Swan when it first came out and I loved it. I stumbled upon some pretty, vintage style designed posters for the movie and I fell in love with them. View them here. I decided to make my own Black Swan poster using a similar style to theirs because I liked it so much. I had so much trouble making the proper swan shape for this and my lack of Illustrator skills didn't help much.

Explained: A pair of black swans which hide inside them a pair of eyes. The eyes represent the ballerina, which is why they appear angry. The swans are on a lake, although instead of waves I used zigzags to give it an edgier feel. The lake is red and dripping on the bottom right, which represents bloodshed.

If I ever decide to re-do this idea, I think I'll add the ballerina's crown next time.

Humber.

Critique
At Humber College, we put critique forms on the back of all the assignments.
This is more what it actually feels like.
