Creativity and digital craft is an important part of my work. Using apps like the adobe sweet or even free applications that work like the adobe sweet or any other video, audio, or digital art programs are all important to my work. Because by using these I can express my creativity and express my passion for story telling through these applications. My favorite thing to do is to use apps like Davinci Resolve, Krita\/Adobe Photoshop, Affinity Designer\/Adobe Illustrator, and Audacity. Using all of these apps in conjunction with one another can create a really inserting thing. I would first come up with an idea for what I want to do, usually this process is done by brainstorming, listing out all my ideas, I would figure out which one I like the best, then go and create rough drafts using Krita or adobe photo to create either a few frames for an animation or create special effects for my project until I find the outcome that I like the best.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The colors I would choose depends on what kind of project I am making and or what theme I am working with. For example if I am making an informational video I may not use some if not any specific color theme and just stick with whatever I have at my disposal in the video editing software I am working in; With that kind of video I would also maybe include video of what I am talking about whether it be on a web page or on another video, next I would go to Audacity and record audio if needed and edit audio as well if I need that audio for my project, Then I would go to Davinci resolve to compile it all together and add in a few effects to my visual changes from one thing to another and I would add in background music and finally compile it all together so that I have a fully complete piece and either upload it to a social media platform or privately share it with other people for feedback or for a laugh out of them.<\/span><\/p>\n

There’s a project I worked on in my new media 200 class that I created a video for that helps explore solutions, resilience, and or possibilities that project was my fifth project where I had created a video that had explained different ideas that would help the human race lead more towards a sustainable and more solarpunk-esque life style; where I talked about if we used renewable energy sources more than we did now than that could solve the majority of our carbon dioxide emissions. I also talked about how if we moved from what we have now for transportation and figured out and invented some new technologies that would change the way we fuel our transportation and power them to create less emission and create renewable energy from the vehicles as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

All in all I feel like this statement is the kind of artist and storyteller I am currently I hope that the people who view my work now as it is and just provide feedback as I know I can keep growing and that because I know that I can keep growing that I will grow and become a better artist and storyteller as I keep practicing this kind of work. What excites me most about this is seeing where I will be in the future when I have developed a better understanding about art and storytelling. I want to know what I could be. Right now I value critical thinking and all of the criticism that I will receive. I want to better my art and better myself in general so that my art will better reflect the person I am and the person I may become. I think maybe one day that my work will matter in the world because I don\u2019t just want to entertain people I want to impact people for the better and show them that we can do better and that everyone has to start somewhere to get somewhere else.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
