Projects

  • Who Are You?

    -

    This is a project for "Video Art" that is meant to convey what can be felt by putting on a false personality.

  • Humanity

    -

  • Emotionally Together

    -

    In "Beginning Painting: Acrylic and Oil", we were tasked with creating a 4x6 ft painting based on color and poems based on color. The color of my choosing was "Opal". With this color choice, I decided to make a painting about how it is healthy for people to acknowledge and welcome every emotion that they are feeling.

  • Painting GIF

    -

    This is a GIF that I volunteered to make for my "Beginning Painting: Acrylic and Oil" course. This GIF would loop all of the art that people in the course made for our "Bio Art" Projects. I made two of these GIFs. One that was organized the way the files were sent to me. The other was made by alphabetizing the files. One of these GIFs was sent to Italy.

  • Micro Topography

    -

    This piece was created for the "Beginning Painting: Acrylic and Oil" class at MSU Denver. For this piece, I chose to use "Green Tea" and "Butterfly Pea Tea" to color two different canvases' to look like maps. Upon completion, this project was put on display at the Tivoli on the Auraria campus as a part of the ASCP's Earth Week show. Furthermore, I made a GIF out of everyone's paintings so that they could be sent to Italy.

  • Presentation: The Little Friends of Printmaking

    -

    This was a presentation that I put together for " Beginning Screenprinting" at Metropolitan State University of Denver. For this assignment, we were tasked with listening to a podcast that talks about or has screen printers on the podcast as a guest. Based on this and the research that we did, we would have to put together an informative presentation on that screen printer as an artist.

  • Uncanny

    -

    In "Beginning Photography: Digital", we were tasked with taking photos that come off as "uncanny".

  • Untitled

    -

    This was a project for "Beginning Painting: Acrylic and Oil" where we were tasked with painting a person in one form or another. In my artistic practice, I have found a love for making art about identity. This is why, for this project, I painted both a camera and an eyeball. This is meant to reflect how the eyes of the world can sometimes impact the way you behave.

  • Hersh Bar

    -

    This was created for my "Beginning Painting: Acrylic and Oil" course. This was meant to serve as a statement about how the foods that we love are often toxic to our bodies. Because of this, the overall message was about how food should be consumed in moderation

  • Poster: Singin' in the Rain

    -

  • Russian Constructivism: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly Poster

    -

    For the "Art of the International Film Poster" course, we were tasked with watching a film and creating a poster for that film based on the poster styles that we learned about

    -

  • Formal Analysis of Tom Friedman

    -

  • The Last of Us x Level of Concern

    -

    For a video course, we were required to make a music video. This time around, I paired "The Last of Us" with "Level of Concern" by AJR.

  • GIF

    -

    This was a project that required students to make a GIF. For my GIF, it felt too easy to use Adobe Photoshop. This is why I decided to use Blender to 3D model a cube and floor. Because I was proud of this project, I chose to edit the GIF in Adobe Premier pro and upload it to Youtube.

  • The Apocolypse x Hungry Like the Wolf

    -

    This was a music video that I created for my "Basic Video Editing" course. We were provided with the apocalypse footage. But, we had to pick our song.

  • Black History Month 2023

    -

  • Cyber Punk: Music Video

    -

    Having made a music video a year prior, I wanted to see if I could make something better. After spending time looking through footage, I paired "Cyber Punk: Edgerunners" with "Heathens" by Twenty-One Pilots.

  • DMC Website

    -

    At the moment I am designing and coding a website in Adobe Dreamweaver for the Digital Media Club at Metro State University. This website is meant to allow potential members to learn about our club and what we do, if interested, they can follow a link to our club Discord. As of now, this is the sole purpose of our club, but, in the foreseeable future many changes will be made to showcase what our club has done.

  • Queens Gambit x AJR Music Video

    -

    For 4D studio foundations, we were given an assignment to create a music video using the media of our choice. This eventually led me to the beautiful combo of "Let the Games Begin" by AJR with Queens Gambit.

  • The Monopoly Movie

    -

    In " The Monopoly Movie", we demonstrated how aggravating the game can be. In order to show how aggravating it can be we utilized many effects to show how chaotic things can get. This video was submitted to a film festival where our group came in second place.
