Eva's Digital Media Experience

 Poster:  I wanted my poster to be about women's rights in society. Women are often silenced and made to feel like their voices and opinions matter less, and I wanted to make my project say something about that. I think it's important for everyone to be able to speak their minds, and society should stop making minorities out to feel like less than they are.  Inspiration:  I liked the color scheme of this poster because I thought they worked well together despite there only being a few different colors. I tried to copy these colors as best as I could, and I think they turned out well.  Selfie:  This was my original selfie. I made this face because I wanted it to look like I was afraid once I drew in the hand covering my mouth.  Self Portrait:  This is what my self portrait looked like before I changed the colors and added the hand for my poster. I think the gradients looked really good, especially since I had never used it before. 

Final Project: For my project, I wanted to do something music related. I used to play the piano and it's one of my favorite instruments, and I thought it would look interesting as a calligram. I wanted to add color and I thought the music notes would look nice and stand out from the black and white. This project took me about six hours to complete. The hardest part for me was getting the text to rotate certain ways, because it mostly wanted to align with the shapes and I couldn't figure out how to get it on a slant. I liked this project a lot more than the canvas project, because it was a lot easier to make shapes with Illustrator than with Dreamweaver.  Sketch:  Letter to My Future Self:  Dear Eva,    How have you been?

I wish I could know already how everything turned out for you, but I guess I’ll fin
