FINAL PORTFOLIO

FMX210 FINAL PORTFOLIO


ARTIST STATEMENT:

        FMX210 has been a complex yet rewarding class over this past fall semester. This course has taught me the logistics of countless Adobe programs which have bettered my digital media skills. Attached is my portfolio which includes each final project from each program we worked with. My portfolio is themed as red and black with the font Mercurius MT std bold to better the overall composition. Each page is a different project and is done in chronological order from the first unit through the last. I aimed to use InDesign to successfully create a visually appealing portfolio while displaying each of my projects on the consecutive pages, along with a table of contents and an about me page. 
        My portfolio is crafted in such a way that is visually appealing through the use of color choices, creative fonts, and a simple approach to highlight each project. The theme I chose to create was based off of a few separate ideas I had, and is consistent and matches well, though it isn't to crowded to the point where my projects don't stand out. Each page includes one project with a description of my aim and overall idea when creating it. Secondly, each page also includes some form of red and black as well as my chosen base font to keep the theme consistent.
        Overall, my InDesign portfolio is a great representation of what we learned, and what I took from this course as a whole. It is able to properly exemplify each project with a description of what the project is and how it's relevant. The theme works with the projects to create a visually appealing composition and tie the final portfolio together. FMX210 has been beneficial in teaching me what I need to know with regards to digital media and the large amount of Adobe programs. My projects are able to show my progress in what I have learned, and I aim to continue learning what I can to better myself in digital media.

GET TO KNOW ME

My name is Emma Lynch and I am originally from Maryland but currently live in South Carolina. I have been coming to Florida for most of my life for vacation as well as to visit family, so I am excited to spend the next few years here at the University of Tampa. My hobbies include trying new foods, photography, and traveling, which typically consumes most of my free time. I am extremely passionate about traveling and hope to live abroad in the future. My favorite places to travel are Italy and Alberta, Canada. I am a Public Relations and Advertising major and aim to pursue a career in Advertising from a creative perspective in the Northeast. I have always been interested in different art forms and photography but am excited to further my knowledge in digital media. Most of the art I am familiar with ties back to photography, so I am excited to use that basis of understanding to influence my work in this class. My initial feelings on the course are that it will be relatively diffic...

BW to Color Portrait

    BW TO COLOR PHOTOSHOP PORTRAITS Artist Statement:          The six portraits I have created are photoshop self portraits that show separate ways that color can be shown, based off of the same base color. Each portrait shares the same pink/purple color which is highlighted differently in each image. Some images include the base color on the hair, face, lips, etc. The base color ties to other colors through triad, monochromatic, complementary, analogous, shades, and compound colors.          These compositions are relevant in showing how colors vary on the color wheel and how each color relates to, but is different from the base color. Each composition is crafted in a slightly different manner than the next but shows how each and every color used correlates in a visually appealing way. My logo tag brush is also included which makes these portraits unique from other projects as my logo represents myself and is embedd...
