For this project I was instructed to make a movie poster for a movie I enjoyed. I decided to make a poster for the movie Inception because it is one of my favorite movies and I had an Idea for a poster. I used the pen tool to model a detailed looking handgun and added shading to it to make it look more realistic. I then made a bishop and the spinning tool used in the movie. I then realized I did not have much time left so I quickly used the shape tool to make a table and 2 skyscrapers. I then added a gradient for the background and used the text tool to add the title of the movie. I am happy with how this turned out although I do wish I had more time.

All in all, this was probably my favorite quarter so far. I got to learn how to realistically texture the models I make in 3Ds max and got to learn how to use Adobe Illustrator. I enjoyed using Adobe Illustrator much more than I did using Adobe Photoshop. It was much simpler and creating icons was much more fun rather than editing images and other projects we did using Photoshop. I learned how to use UV Maps and create more detailed textures for the 3D models I have made, which in turn adds another aspect to the models making them more appealing. In conclusion, I really enjoyed using Adobe Illustrator and being able to texture my 3D models and I hope that we do something similar in the final quarter.
In this project I was instructed to trace certain star wars logos using the pen tool. I was able to practice the skills I had gained from the pen game and put some practice in. Overall, I am satisfied with how these turned out and I enjoy using the pen tool and feel like it could be really useful in the future.
For this project I was instructed to play a game to help me practice using the pen tool to make Bezier curves and good looking shapes. I completed the game with 32 nodes to spare which I am pretty proud of. Overall the game was really fun and I had a good time playing it. This game helped me learn how to make advanced shapes using the pen tool, this knowledge is very useful because creating shapes like these would be very common in a lot of careers so it is good knowledge to understand how to make these.
In this project, I was told to display a movie in 4 different icons, I chose the movie Harry Potter and the chamber of secrets. I created some simple glasses from the movie using the shape builder and an acceptance letter into Hogwarts using the shape builder. I also made a cauldron and wand using the shape builder, afterwards I went through and added color and made it look nicer. Overall I am happy with how it turned out and I learned a lot about the shape builder and illustrator.
