Graphic design is my destination. I want to discover the visual aspects and aesthetic properties of objects, and observe how they could be expressed through different colours, shapes, lines and tones. Design is the conscious exploring of potential futures; it indicates the purpose of a product. As I strongly believe there is no final destination in graphic design, the path is continuous and I will always see and discover new ideas. The excitement and inspiration by the things I see keep me motivated. In BTEC art lessons I have developed my drawing skills to a high level. I am adept at printmaking and have used various techniques such as linocut, woodcut, collagraph and mono print. I have also learnt how to make my own paper upon which I printed and embedded my designs. These skills have increased my desire to study Graphic Design, as printmaking is part of the graphic design course. For the sculpture unit I used an armature and mixed media to create figures in the style of Giacometti for which I achieved a Distinction for it in my BTEC Diploma. By using Photoshop I have gained the sk...
My goal for this paper is to give a practical critique and defense of what I have learned in my time as a Studio Art Major. During my time here I have learned that Pensacola Christian college’s definition of art “art is the organized visual expression of ideas or feelings” and the four parts of Biblosophy: cannon, communication, client, and creativity. Along with Biblosophy I have studied Dr. Frances Schaeffer 's criteria for art, seeing how the technical, and the major and minor messages in artwork. All of these principles are great but they do need to be refined.
I have studied of art and product design where a love of art inspired me to be creative. I have always been fascinated about makeup and the styles especially the special effects side and all the other theatrical and media makeup and creative styles. I love to do makeup and other artistic pursuits I have always wanted to do what felt was good for me and now that I have found something of interest to me I feel so lucky that I am determined to be the best I can be. I am always trying out new ideas and makeup looks. I have attended Birmingham South college studied level 3 in Theatrical special effects media makeup body art.
Before finally deciding on my career path, I had a very hard time trying to choose which path I wanted to take. After considering what I truly enjoy doing and what skills I possess, I have decided that I wanted to become a graphic designer. I want to be a graphic designer, because I feel that I would have a chance to use all of the skills I possess and be happy while doing it. In order to become a graphic designer, there are certain educational requirements that must be met. There are also specific job requirements that I must accomplish. Although there are many requirements, the personal benefits I gain will make up for all of the hard work in the end.
From small stick figures, to cartoon characters, to more realistic anatomy and detailed work. This only happened because of my dedication and constant practice with a pencil and paper. Though I do not consider myself the best artist, I became proud of my growth and motivation that branched out to other aspects of my life. This habit of practicing led me to take challenging courses and pursue other passions, like music. Though music seems a little minor in my life, it runs through the family, and I could never be where I am without the practice time I put in both my passions. The small details I picked up from them have helped me immensely in school. From motivation to not give up and the extra effort to understand the material, I created a process of how to do things, and I found myself grateful for the times where I felt lost, and found my way back. Through art, I found my sense of self and the motivation to excel and challenge myself in everything I
For long time, art and design came to gather and everybody mistakenly thought design is for decoration. Now a day, it is completely acceptable for everyone that design has found its current place between all humanity and sciences’ field.
Many do not consider where images they see daily come from. A person can see thousands of different designs in their daily lives; these designs vary on where they are placed. A design on a shirt, an image on a billboard, or even the cover of a magazine all share something in common with one another. These items all had once been on the computer screen or on a piece of paper, designed by an artist known as a graphic designer. Graphic design is a steadily growing occupation in this day as the media has a need for original and creative designs on things like packaging or the covers of magazines. This occupation has grown over the years but still shares the basic components it once started with. Despite these tremendous amounts of growth,

Are migrant workers treated differently? Nowadays, people are moving from one place to another, for different reasons such as work opportunities, politics, political insecurity or corruption, laws, religion, race, a good health, opportunities to find a better education (or a place where they can develop their skills and talents), a better climate or environmental conditions, family issues or conflicts, crisis and ability to have freedom. This reasons can be influenced by personal reasons like ambitions that a person have or by other people motivation.
My short term goal is to graduate from Academy of Art University as soon as possible. Afterwards I want to find a job in an established company so that I gain some experience. In my country, although animations has started been produced to entertain people, I do not think that the graphic, storyline, and other qualities meet the industry standard when compared internationally. So for my long term goal, I would want to build my own animation studio back in my country. I want to improve the overall quality so that animations in my country can go international.
To be divided further, Fine Arts subdivisions include, but are not limited to; workers in fashion, building, food, and photography. Workers in fashion can be divided into even more careers, but the general purpose of a member of the fashion industry is to assist in some part of the creating and designing process of clothing or accessories. Another subdivision is workers who design buildings, interiors, exteriors, or even the landscapes. Yet, the overall mission is the same--to enhance the appearance of a structure to make it appeal more to the human eye. Differing from these two subdivisions is a more essential category, workers of the food industry who can prepare gourmet, BBQ, or...
Allow me to pose a question to those who doubt my career choice. Have you ever been anywhere where it has not been touched by an art form of any kind? I didn't think so. “Art is as universal to our species as food gathering, procreation, community, and warfare” (Cherbo). Not only is it universal, but I would even venture to say that it is essential to our species. “It has contributed to the manifest needs of human social life from the beginning of time and continues to do so today-to healing, play, entertainment, wonder, celebration, security, catharsis, transcendence, belonging, and social placement” (Cherbo). Art is a part of our very beings, it penetrates us and invokes feeling. It is everywhere, and it is something humans crave. People will spend thousands of dollars to have something beautiful in their homes, so how can they tell me that trying to further my career in the arts is useless when they probably have hundreds of pieces of art decorating their home?
For example, to bring a dependable and willing to learn outlook to my future, as well as, learning a new skill to improve myself and employment skills. Provide an opportunity for myself to remain headstrong while going into college. I am a visual learner as well as a hands-on person when learning new skills and new things as I grow. What I need, are the basics to help and develop my skills properly in art.
Forensic Science, the practice in which information and evidence is gathered in order to determine the sentence of a suspect, is a profession that most individuals are unaware of. However, those who have watched CBS or Spike TV may have viewed the show CSI, which stands for Crime Scene Investigation. This somewhat popular show portrays a few positions of the forensic science department, and it also gives different scenarios that a forensic scientist may come across on a daily basis. As an adolescent, I spent countless hours with my grandmother while my parents worked; we both would always sat in the living room while we ate vegetables and watched CSI. At first, I didn’t like science nor did I understand it in school. However, as I started watching CSI, I began to understand the different procedures and methods that the scientists on CSI used and science in school became much easier. I felt as if CSI gave me a breakthrough and it was my calling to become a forensic scientist. As I became more interested with science, I also began to look up the different types of forensic scientists and became interested in the position of a Forensic Reconstructionist. The three main reasons for choosing my major and career was because I was fascinated with science in high school, I wanted to support my family, and because I want to make my parents proud.
‘You cannot hold a design in your hand. It is not a thing. It is a process. A system. A way of thinking.’ Bob Gill, Graphic Design as a Second Language.
During my whole life and experience I have been interested in the Art, Creativity, and I have been traveling around Graphics Designing. When I go out to centres, supermarkets, the high streets around Kingston anywhere in London, Germany and other parts of Europe which I have seen. I have seen lots of Graphics designs in advertising, Billboards companies for example in electronical products or any type of product the graphics advertising companies running around the world, just because of that I was inspired in the graphics designing and I was influence by the subject.
