Glogster

This is my Notre Dame Football glog I created. This is one of my favorite projects I have completed this year in Digital Design. I have always been a big fan of Notre Dame football and especially the movie "Rudy". Notre Dame will always have a special place in my football heart. Go Irish!

Facebook

I think they are many pros and cons of the sensational social media site of Facebook. I myself have a Facebook and find it a very awesome resource to communicate with friends and family.

Pros
Ability to communicate with friends and family
Ability to make your own profile expressing yourself
Ability to make plans with friends and comment on fan pages you have liked

Cons
Privacy issues
Identity theft is a big issue with Facebook just look up how many Lebron James' there are!
Loss of communication skills (face to face)

I feel like this next generation of people are going to depend to much on social media in their lives.

Landscape

Here is the Edulaunch project I finished called Joe's Landscape. This was a very interactive project. I was required to use many different brushes to make the grass look real. I really enjoyed working on this project!

Celebrity Photoshop Project

This is my creative photoshop project. I replaced Kirk Herbstreit's face with mine in this photo. I had to use the eyedropper tool a lot to match color. I also had to change his name on the header to mine. In order for it to look realistic I had to change Brent Musburger's name as well.

Light Saber Project

This is another project I did in Photoshop. The original picture was of myself in a Jedi stance holding a ruler. I edited it and added a colored glow effect to the ruler which transformed it into a light saber! This was a very fun project because I have always been a big fan of the Star Wars series.

Creative Drawing

Here's my creative drawing I made on Photoshop! This was a very fun project, the palm tree took a lot of time to create because of it's unique shape. I used the gradient tool on the beach ball and I used a dotted brush on the beach sand. I also created a shark fin in the water sort of like a Jaws Movie Poster.

Halloween Project on Photoshop

This is a Halloween picture of me that I created on Photoshop. My teeth are bright red and I inserted a glow on my eyes. I think I look a little like the Grinch. My favorite part about this picture is my teeth I look pretty intimidating!

GoAnimate Project

I created a funny Sportcenter scene with an awkward news anchor and a NBA benchwarmer. I can really see this type of scene in a comedy sports movie. The news anchor is named Edward Smoothtalk and the player is Mr. Benchman of the Minnesota Timberwolves. I hope you enjoy!

Pic Monkey

This is the pic monkey I created on one of my favorite NBA basketball players. He looks really scary! The blood splats and creepy eyes stand out in the picture the most in my opinion.
