Vector Graphics

This unit in Digital Art we learnt how to use inkscape.
The first thing we had to do was turn a circle into a shamrock, just by dragging the seperate whiskers and paths to the correct positions.
It was hard at first, but then we got used to it.







Then we had to make a butterfly. This was a lot harder, especially rounding the body correctly.
We also learnt how to change the colour of parts and control the opacity and wether it fades or not.

A new ZIS logo

This unit in Digital Art we had to create a new logo for our school.

This is a sketch of what I wanted my logo to look like:





This is what it looked like after we created it on logomaker.





This is the logo on a mouse pad.
This is a logo on a journal.

My favourite digital photography pictures

This unit in Digital Art we learnt about digital photography. We took very amatuerish pictures of our school enviroment and then learnt about the rule of thirds, color and lighting. We then evaluated our pictures.



This picture, takes the hallway with a musical instrument, the tablet PC cabinets (grey), our lockers (blue), and a classroom at the back.

This picture has good components, and nothing is in the very centre, so it is quite a good picture.






This is a chain from a bike in our school. It resembles unity, like all chains do. It also shows that we are an enviromentally friendly school, because we ride our bikes to school.

This picture is good because it is close up, but it could be made better by shifting it up or down.
