Self Promos 5 & 6

These are my last two self promos of the semester. The top is an ad for life cereal. My brother's friend came up with the original idea, I refined it and took the picture. "Give Someone life." The model is Tim, a first year at RCC. Very patient and good at playing dead.

On the second image, I wanted to try to do something that was more fine art than commercial. It's a close up of part of the body, don't worry it's not an inappropriate area. It's definitely not what I normally do, but I wanted to try and get out of my comfort zone a little bit.

Composite

This is an assignment were we had to take a portrait of someone, and  a separate background image and put them together to make one image. I worked with the lovely Shana Jarrett, and this is what I ended up with, plus one 'cause we were having fun.

Fuze!

We had another copy assignment for class today, but this time we got to work in groups, and it had to be a beverage. I got to work with the wonderful Emma Kepley. Very talented. We chose to copy a Fuze ad. Had a few problems in the beginning, but we got though and we're pretty pleased with the overall result.

Panoramic!

This is the panoramic that I did for class. It's downtown Charlotte around 8:30 at night.

Eggs!

For this client assignment we had to illustrate 12 eggs. I chose to put it into a kitchen setting, like you're about to bake a cake.

Copying an Ad

For one of our assignments we had to re produce an ad that we found either online or in a magazine. I chose one from a magazine and had to take a quick picture of it, so the one on the left isn't the best quality, but that's what I was copying.

Self promo 3 & 4

For our next self promos, I wanted to try and work with a person. The idea was basically a glamour / beauty shot. The expression isn't quite there yet, but I feel it was a good start. For the other promo I wanted to work with smoke. I bounced around a lot on how I wanted to do it, and I ended up on a product type shot of incense.
