Olathe Northwest Lizards


Northwest Lizards

I chose lizards for no particular reason, I just wanted something about the same length as ravens and fit together with northwest. I also chose lizards because I knew that the logo would not be too hard to make, I wanted to have a simple logo for the school.

Logo

I chose the same color scheme and based it off another logo to create this lizard. I also kept the logo look the same as the current logo of Olathe Northwest. On the text, I tried to keep the same text the same too, so that it was consistent in the look. I chose these colors because green usually goes with lizards, and orange goes with green good.

SFX Animation


Process

This SFX animation was made in After Effects and the explosion was made from several components  like the explosion, the dust, and the smoke. It had to be timed with the explosion and make it seem like a realistic explosion. I had to import all the components of the explosion and add them in one at a time and make sure the timing was with the explosion. Then I had to deal with the lighting that it would have left if it was really in that street, then I had to time the explosion so that it was the brightest when the explosion first comes out. I learned how to deal with masks and how to feathers objects out so that they don't have a sharp edge. If I had more time and experience, I could add a camera shake or more windows breaking, making the explosion seem like it really happened. I would keep the timing the same, it is well timed with the explosion and the sound. After this project, I applied what I learned to do the same thing but in a different scenario.

Past Present Future Website


Summary of Project

This project has information on places I went to and schools I went to in my past. Then it has things on what I want to do when I grow up. It has rollover images at the top to show the dates on what time zone it is in. Then to go back to the home page, you click the name at the top. It has stuff from things about me going to Disney World, and elementary school to what college I plan to go to for the major I want; video game design.
