Toy Comic Strip

In my concept class we were assigned a partner to create a comic strip based on the characters we had created from our random quotes. The comic strip had to open with one of our quotes and close with the other one. We only had an hour to do this. So in an hour we had to figure out a story that fit both of our quotes and then illustrate it. We made this on my partners laptop and it kept freezing up so on top of the time limit we were also faced with technical difficulties. In the end we had to use a screen shot that's why the bounding box in the last frame.
Our idea was the kids are crying for a toy from the toy store of course this is a toy store in Hell so it only has one toy. But the blue character has an empty wallet no money.

Toy Design

In my Concept Design class we were given random quotes that were suppose to inspire us to make a toy. My quote was

Welcome to hell here's your accordion.


We had to design a toy, logo, and packaging based on the quote. I made a barbie like doll named Lisafer.

Secrets - We All Have Them

First assignment in Concept Design was to make a secret postcard like PostSecret.

PostSecret is an ongoing community mail art project, created by Frank Warren, in which people mail their secrets anonymously on a homemade postcard. Select secrets are then posted on the PostSecret website, or used for PostSecret's books or museum exhibits.

Starting Final In Dreamweaver

The final project for my Intro to Programming is to make a website. I just started working on it in dreamweaver. I decided to change my navigation from my original idea so that it was easier to read.

See some inspiration on my pinterest boards along with websites for webdesign 



This picture shows how the navigation will look when you are hovering over it.
