Themes part 3


  • This is part 3 of the whole theme/idea project for Hotel Rwanda
  • The extreme racism (the whole world against him) that took place in the movie inspired me, especially when all the whites were moved out of the country but the blacks weren't
  • I tried to extremely cloud the planet with white characters and completely seperate the protagonist of Hotel Rwanda.
  • Im satisfied with the finished product, at least for now, and there is nothing more I feel the need to add at this time.

Portfolio Image

  • We were to create a sort of advertisement/business card for our fake graphic artist career.
  • I wanted to make a sort of portfolio image but in a very simple and realistic way.
  • I was inspired by the example images on the handout
  • I'm satisfied with the final product as it adds all the images I want in a good way. There is nothing I feel as though I necessarily need to add at this time.


Themes 1-2 (Hatred and Courage)



  • We were supposed to make an image modeled after a theme in the movie Hotel Rwanda.
  • I used the cockroach image and the wings as the main focal points in both image and of course the recurring theme of fire. I tried to make images that subtly imply feelings that revolve around the theme of the creation.
  • The themes/ideas brought on by watching Hotel Rwanda Inspired me.
  • I am satisfied with the pieces and there is nothing else I feel the need to add at this time.

Bravery (part 2 and part 1 of Social Injustice)

  • This is the one word text illustration project.
  • I was inspired by a major theme in the movie and although the word is fear in this picture the theme is bravery
  • I used black and white pictures and made the bulk of the image as threatening as possible then added a picture of a man with a girl to portray the main character in Hotel Rwanda.
  • I am somewhat satisfied with the finished product and there is nothing I feel the need to add at this time.
  • Unfortunately my movie poster which consisted in a black and white pic I created of the main character and the hotel was deleted thanks to the old mac computer I'm using.

Winter is Coming


  • The TV show game of thrones inspired me for this project.
  • I wanted to make a background for my netbook the contained a Game of Thrones reference and this is what I could come up with.
  • I like the finished product and how well the images combined together.
  • I might put more time into the wolf before I make it my background but right now I am satisfied with the finished product.

Batesville Day Shirt

  • We were assigned to make a Batesville day t-shirt for extra credit.
  • I wanted to capture the image of Batesville history while still giving it an artistic aspect.
  • The image of the Batesville store inspired me to use a sepia tone and make it as old but as artistic looking as possible.
  • I am satisfied with the finished product and there is nothing more I feel the need to add at this time.

Background replace product



  • We were supposed to take an image and recreate it with a different image and then add a stroke. After this was accomplished blend it together in a final image. The first picture most of the pictures are from the web but the final picture is made up of mostly my own images.
  • I used my music man, jack nicholson photo, kaleidoscope, and photo vortex images in order to make the second one. I also used four images of color from the web to fill in the Jack Nicholson shapes.
  • I feel satisfied with the images. The first one I think I could have made the planets more 3d looking.
  • Other then that there is nothing else I feel the need to add.
