Rotoscope

 



At the beginning of creating the rotoscope, I was stuck on what scene to do. When I finally set my mind, I decided to use the final scenes from Knives Out directed by Rian Johnson. I did cut the final scene shorter to only 5 seconds to ensure I wasn’t tracing for hours on end. I began by changing the frame rate to 12 FPS to make it easier to outline each scene. Going frame by frame I outlined almost every detail, including clothing, props, and even writing on the props. Though I did not trace the faces, I thought that tracing other details would make the finished product still complete. One of the most challenging projects, creating this took a lot of attention. I did use the Wacom drawing tablet to make the tracing easier, in which by using the tablet it cut down the time it took to create the finished product. In the end, I looked back on each frame to make sure each detail I wanted to capture was in the final product.

            Final Logo Reference Image Statement:      For my fictional company, I wanted to center the logo around one of my hobbies– collecting records. I wanted to go beyond a typical logo with a record where it either was the logo entirely or part of the name. I felt that a shopping bag was appropriate as the company would be both an in-store and online record shop. I am also a big fan of the color sage green and thought it would go with the company well and provide a simple and identifiable name. I also added the company's name below for the logo to be easily tied to a business. In terms of creating the logo, I started with the front shape of the bag using the rectangle tool to create the basic shape then using the direct selection tool to modify the proportions. After, I made the record using the ellipse tool as well as the curvature tool to create the grooves of the record. I also used the ellipse tool for both the handle of the bag to create a perfect half oval shape and th

  Artist Statement: Going off of the original photo, I wanted to keep the illustration relatively close to the original drawing. Using the pen tool for the head and body of the cat, I made a simple outline for the final illustration. I did go off with my creative liberties with the pants, shirt, and shoes. I went with an "Earth Day" T-shirt and cargo pants along with high-top sneakers to go with the cat's chill pose. On the face, I also added eyebrows to make it less creepy. I copy and pasted many elements to create symmetry like the eyes and eyebrows but kept things like the ears and arms different to not make the illustration too "cold". For the background, I wanted to create depth, in so I used the pen tool to create dirt as well as distant mountains to make it look like the cat was standing far away almost like on top of another hill. To add more to the sky, I created clouds and used the gradient tool to make sure the clouds weren't too one-dimensional.

  Artist Statement     For this project, I wanted to make something inspired by one of my favorite artists, Taylor Swift. I used the pen tool to create an outline of a scarf, a large symbol in one of her most famous songs All Too Well. Using the color red in the font, I made a little nod to the album that the song is in. I also used a Times New Roman font(italicized) as it fit the emotions of the song. For the text, I used the lyrics from her song All Too Well(10 Minute Version) for the outline and the inside of the scarf. For the inside text, I made it a darker shade to emphasize the shape. For final touches, I added the title of the song largely at the top as well as the credits for the songwriting in black to stand out.
