Video Project - Beauty

Here is mine and Ian's final video project. I'm sure you'll get it but it's about society's idea of beauty against nature's. It was a pretty cool project to work on. I liked seeing the progression of the video itself, by putting images in step by step and transitioning between them to make something that looked cool. I'd love to work with video editing software more because with more time and practice I think some really wicked projects could be made, and it could be a great form of expression. Anyways I like how it turned out, so I hope you do too.

website project

I finished my website. The final product is cool, but the creation process I found to be the least enjoyable yet. Website creation is very tedious work. Dreamweaver was fairly easy to use once I understood it, but it can be picky. Here's the url to view my website: http://www.uleth.ca/~lisa.laviolette/

Collage Project

Here is my complete collage project. I found this assignment very difficult. My ideas didn't flow as freely as they did for the self-portrait project. I like the final image though. Enjoy.!

Self Portrait (Assignment #1)

Here is my self portrait creation. I really enjoyed making it and like the final image. It was cool to see everyone in class' images, and all the different ideas of how a picture of themself could be interpreted. There were some awesome images. Time to start the collage! I think it will be more time consuming and I'm finding it harder to come up with an idea than with this first project.

keep on keeping on

School's getting busy lately. Three projects due this week. Which means I had a very dull weekend. I find new media to be a nice break from the daily grind of all my other classes, something I actually fully enjoy. I've been enjoying the creative process. There's alot of introspective thought that goes into it, and it's somewhat calming. Here's an image that I made in Photoshop sometime last year. (Everything's more interesting when there is a visual image). Listening to alot of Damien Rice today. I can never get sick of it.

Self Portrait Assignment

For research for my self-portrait assignment I have been looking at alot of new media artists for some inspiration. I have already started to work on an image. I like how it is turning out so far. This is a digital image that I really like by an artist named Sue Lloyd. I don't think my own self-portrait will be a similar creation, I just thought it was a really cool picture.
