Le Hey Go Make Me Something Plane Thingy

Yes.

Le Miniature Composition Thingy

We were tasked with placing completely unrelated images of completely unrelated objects onto an unfortunately low resolution background that, again, was completely unrelated to anything else.

In other words, we had to make a composition.

It was time consuming, but I like how it turned out, even if the final product's dimensions were smaller than I had hoped they'd be.

Le King Anthasam of Nigeria Thingy

There are no words to describe this thing.

I am a disturbed individual and thought of this.  I deeply apologize for your visual suffering.

Le Facebook Redesign Thingy

There are a lot of awfully designed things in the world.  Our job is to fix them.  In other words, we must take them from crappy... To snappy.  Oh yes.

One of the most completely terrible things we use these days is the blue horror itself, Facebook.  It's rather ugly, and quite frankly, it's a bear to get around.  Settings are separated when they shouldn't be, parts of the site are disjointed, and there's never been a quick way to show disapproval for something.

That's what I set out to fix in the short time I had with this project.

Le Map of Toyota Thingy

This was a certain flavor of painful.  If I had known that Japan's roads don't have street names, I probably wouldn't have chosen a Japanese city.

Anyway, I mapped Toyota's city in Japan.  It's a pretty special place.  Toyota runs that town.  They have a test track for their cars.  Their technical center is a little thingamabob on the corner of a highway and some unnamed stretch of road.  There are massive complexes for all sorts of Toyota things and stuff.

So, I give you, Toyota, complete with an authentic-looking Japanese road sign thing.

All the things due today.

When my computer was nuked, I lost my portfolio.  I remade it.

Here it is.  You'll have to download it to view it, though.  Here's the cover:

In other news, here is our special effects video, the Pokétato.

Also, here's my Holiday Card:

Le Photo Retouching Thingy

So, we were tasked with making our faces less ugly.  I have to say, it was a little awkward zapping zits at the subatomic level like we were.  I don't think I've ever been so self-conscious of the contents of my right nostril before.  Spot healing it resulted in skin grafts inside my nose.  It was awful.  Oh my god.

So, things were going well.  I was giving my self a clone-stamp hair cut, and having a good time, and then, DISASTER.

Mr. Courtney installed Windows 8 on my computer after formatting the hard drive.  My files were catastrophically murdered one by one right before my eyes.  So, I started over, and finished it up last Friday after school.

It's not the best photo of me, but it's far from the worst.  I guess I could have called upon the magical properties of the mythical comb before the shoot, but whatever.  And it my left eye (your right) looks like it's being closed up by an infected bee sting.  That's not cool.  I haven't been stung by a bee since I was three, and in another state.

Le Troll Illustration Thingy

You'll never guess what we got to do in Visual Design.  Never.

Try anyway.

I'll wait.

Go on.

Guess.

Did you guess?

I don't care, I'm going on anyway.

We did a tutorial.  I know, it's quite shocking.

We made Trolls.  Internet Trolls, to be precise.

Here's the little gremlin I made:
