Calligram

     My second project at begging digital arts. Calligram, I loved the idea of making a calligram since the begging of the class, this was a very fun and interesting experience. We used Adobe Illustrator to make this calligram, at the beginning, i did not know how to use illustrator like any other design program, but while it took me a while to have an approximate idea of how to use DreamWeaver, i learned how to use Adobe Illustrator right away. Today i love this program, it is extremely useful.

     

     When i started making sketches for the calligram, i had so many things in my mind, i could not figure out what to draw. I wanted to make a car, a sea horse, a gun, a shark, among others. Then after too much thinking i decided to make a white shark just because i like white sharks. And today i am very happy with my design, but i am going to change the interior of my calligram because i used letters to big and it does not have shape in the interior.

Canvas

     This is my very first project at beginning digital arts. At the moment i opened DreamWeaver for first time i thought that there could not be anything hardest in the world than it, but then the professor started explaining everything step for step and it started to look a little bit easier, but hard at the same time. Then after with a lot of practice, i started to become familiar with DreamWeaver and it became just a little bit more easy.
      For me was very interesting to learn how to use DreamWeaver, and hope that with practice one day will learn how to use this program at its best.

First Post

My first beginning digital arts class was confusing but also fun. At the beginning i was extremely confused and scarred because i have never used Adobe Dreamweaver, photoshop or any other computer program like those. My first thoughts of the class were absolutely not good. But then when the professor started showing us how to use Adobe Dreamweaver, the class became so much fun than before and my thoughts had completely changed. The professor explained every step with calm, patience and very clear. At this time i'm so happy with the class and want to learn more and more.

At this time I am working on the HTML Canvas assignment, and it is being fun, and also very interesting. Before working on this assignment did not know that people designed using codes and i absolutely thought that that kind of design was impossible. I am trying to do my best, and trying to figure out how to do things i do not know how to do.

Although this is the end of the post, i am going to introduce myself. I am Andres Haddad, from Venezuela and my major is advertising and public relations. I like playing soccer, snowboard and going to the beach.
