Apex Logo Contest

I was inspired by the student section at Apex and used the design tips on Mrs.Sudkamps website to help me design the shapes used. I put it on the sign by photoshopping out the current logo and replacing it with my new one. 

Stop Motion Artist

Alexander Dubosc

I picked him because I was intrigued by the colors he used and how he added unique surprises that kept a relatively basic process of baking a cake interesting. He mainly focuses on food art and has a website dedicated to this at http://alexandre-dubosc.com/. He is from France and was studying directing at until he received a master in European art and worked in many companies in France including Mac Guff Ligne. In 2002, he directed The Lover which proved to be a turning point in his career. He brings inanimate objects that belong in the fridge to life and it becomes very entertaining. 

Here is a link to his video Food about You, where he makes a cake.

Brush Project

I just randomly thought of the idea of me meditating and then I thought about cool designs to put in the background to make it look like I was surrounded by water and fire. I came across some problems with the editing of getting my outline but I eventually got it right. If I did this again I might go for a different idea because it was tricky getting the outline of myself. I used the swirl brush, the sun, and the fire and water to go behind.
