Change

On the road back home, I recalled my university life in China and always kept thinking about my video production. I found now my life is full of assignment and also I indeed learn many things. Frankly, this course is absolutely new to me, I have no relevant experience know nothing about final cut, photoshop...However, I really feel I did a right choice to study overseas. I know more and broaden my versions. So it is a hard time but at the same time, really good.
I still arrange the schedule of all the assignment and finish on time, whenever to start will never late, not to say I am so young^_^
Keep going, all the scenes on my road are a wealth to me, no matter good or bad, I will always to value them and then, enjoy them..

Kind of aritist

Strong:
This thought comes from us overseas students. Because of the long distance from our home, we cannot go back there usually, which there are surely separated lovers. In addition, we are now not little child already and should consider our futures as well, so all these things make long-distance relationship harder to maintain. The lovers in my photo are chatting with video to release their miss. The boy is my roommate and now he has a part-time job in his spare time here, so he can save money. Moreover, the one we can depend on is ourselves in this strange place so he is learning how to be strong, how to become a real man. In the photo, he is promising to his girlfriend. He promised to her that he would go back as soon as possible and told her he is strong enough to protect her, to give her their common future. The girl is moved to tears. Stories like this are happening everywhere from my point of view and every time I see photos like this, I can feel the happiness as well. Love is really strong to go through the long distance, to break the limitation of space and time.



Love:
The idea of this photo is showing mother love, which is the greatest love of human beings. The doll stands for little child, who is so vulnerable. The umbrella is a symbol of protection from our mother. We also can notice that the sky is half sunny and half cloudy, this means our society is unpredictable. But no matter how the weather is, no matter how serious our conditions are, our mothers are still protecting us with their strong arms and give us a safe harbour all the time.



Corrupt:
The whole tone of this photo is kind of dark because corruption in my mind is a dark aspect of our society. I set the main scene inside the door, this means that everyone has a door of corruption in our heart and the important thing is whether we keep it close or to what extent we open it. I leave the door ajar to give audiences a moving feeling which stand for that there is someone walking into this door. The arrow is made of coins and it lead to a mousetrap, kind of trap but at the same time, it is a lure. Because there is money there, that is to say, bribery is waiting there. If you are attracted by your desire for money, you will trapped by yourself and hurt yourself. The arrangement of currency is according to the denomination, from small to large. This means people always get increasingly greedy once you are corruptive. But they do not realize what a dangerous thing they are doing. So we should curb our desire thereby living a healthy and active life.

CHANEL

COCO CHANEL was the founder of the gaint of fashion--CHANEL, and I like her design principles very much.Simple, confortable. She believed fashion was everywhere and she said:Women wear clothes for themselves rather than for men. We can see she was a elegant, confident lady.
All these things attracted me very much, so I intend to build up websites of her and her fashion empire.

The first time I use photoshop

HOT:
Overall, I intend to show the audiences a life full of passion. So I choose the gradient tool with red and orange color as the backgroud. Because our lives are different and people choose different ways to live as well so the colorful lines stand out our lives. As for the word of hot, I blurred the top of the alphabet which look like surging flame and also like the protential passion of life. Some red flames appear gleamingly in the colorful lines. The whole desigh shows us a hot life full of energy, full of passion, full of hope.





DARK:
As the sentence in the picture says, if you cannot grasp any chance in your life, your life will get dark. I use the angle gradient tool from different direction to set a lighting effects and put a hand in the spotlight. The folding hands stand for a person who always let the chance go. In fact, god give us numerous opportunities to achive out goles,however, if we do not pay effeorts and watch the chances slipping away, our shine in our lives will be eclipsed, will be dark.





COLD:
When it comes with cold, the first imge appears in my mind is snow so the white part stand for a hill covered by snow and the swaying trees to show us the severe wind. On the top of the white part I increase the opacity so show the snow which be blowed up. The trail of footprint imply in the so cold day, only one animal trudges in the snow to show kind of lonely. In point of the word –cold, I draw several white circle on the top to suggest the word is covered by snow as well.



BRIGHT:
This design is kind of abstract. Overall, I want to show a picture of seaside with brilliant sunshine and a nice rainbow. The yellow and brown part stand for the beach and the blue part is sea and cloudless sky. Because the word is bright, so I set a luminous circle around the word. I hope people will produce a feeling of hope when they see this picture. As the echo of rainbow, I set the letter with different letters as well.


This is my first time to use Photoshop so even though my ideas are OK, as for the prospect of technique, I am a completely novice. During the following days I will try my best to learn more about Photoshop.
