Adobe Shape CC




Hi guys! So recently I happened upon this app in the app store. What it does is creates vector shapes from pictures you take on your iphone/ipad. I'm not sure if this app is available in any other app stores, but it's in the apple app store. It's free and pretty easy to use. The pictures above are screenshots of me messing around with it, on the left is what it looks like when you use your camera to take a picture (which you then turn into a vector shape). The green outlines are what will become the lines that make up the shape. You can mess with settings to change how detailed it is, and you can refine the shapes after you take the photo. You can also use photos from your camera roll instead of taking pictures live. The picture on the right is of a finished shape vector of a dollar bill. Since I'm only in DMA 1 and I haven't used Illustrator yet, I'm not sure exactly what all this means or how it works, but I thought it was pretty cool anyway. I think it'd be pretty useful when you want to transform drawings done on paper into digital art.

Last Blog Post

This is my last blog post for my senior year, so I'd like to say that I am so glad I took DMA classes throughout high school. I've learned so much and I wouldn't be where I am today without my experiences in the classes. I will be attending the Savannah College of Art and Design this coming fall and I couldn't be more excited. I'm thinking about majoring and working in the film industry, however, I will be pursuing all and any forms of art in the future as well. From a fellow artist: take the opportunities that you are given and work hard doing what you love.

Speed Painting

This a painting made in Photoshop by a guy who goes by the name " The Concept Painter " on Youtube. He does lots of Photoshop speed painting videos and also air brush videos. This particular painting took him 3.5 hours to complete and was made using a drawing tablet similar to the ones we use in our class.

Bye For Now DMA

      Well since I'm a senior, then this is probably going to be my last blog post. Next year, I am going to do the Digital Design program at the Warren County Career Center for college credit, so I'm still going to do some DMA stuff after graduation. It's been very cool to be making cool stuff here and I'll miss you guys and I know your going to miss me and my dog Max.
