Creative Expression

The senior project requires that you express creativity in some way. We ask that you study one of the many art disciplines as a part of answering your EQ. And at some point, each student will show their creative expression exhibit.

(You're basically doing an art project that's relevant to your senior project.) Please answer the following:

(1) What type of art could you study to help improve your understanding of your senior project topic (*this requires you to research different types of art).

-My senior project topic is art. Its creating visual images on the computer for either marketing purposes, for production, or advertisment. Companies also have artists create visual appealing patterns and designs for clothes or anything else that can be printed.

(2) Give me ideas of what you could do or make for a creative expression presentation.
- I wanted to do a video tutorial on one of the art pieces I have done. I plan to get a free video screen recorder and record myself re-doing one of my art pieces from the beginning step by step. I will either add captions in the video, or do an audio commentary.
- This covers making a video to present something that is already artistic by nature. The video involves editing, as well as audio commentary or visual caption on screen.

The Product

My product so far is a possible career choice. Before, graphic designing (mostly just photo-shopping) was a mere hobby. By taking it as my Senior Project, I have excelled all of skills to the next level and began to implement career skills in my work. Most I do photo-manipulation, but that too is a job on its own.
