Brandon Ard
Final Computer Project
For my final computer project I plan to take pictures of various people from Peabody’s first floor and turn them into to comic book characters with a process similar to rotoscoping. The process I will use has several steps. The first step will be to take the pictures. After I take the photos I will transfer them on to the computer and print them out. Once printed out I will use a light board to trace the important parts of the picture. Once I have the drawn pictures I will edit them till I have the style I want. Once I have that completed I will import the drawings into illustrator were I will “color” the drawings and add text. I will use the text to as a narrator narrating the daily happenings in the Peabody first floor and its inhabitants. The layout will probably end up a slide show with a title page that has a collage of some of the pictures taken. Then each page will depict one or two residents from some of the room depending who I get photos of. The pages will be ordered by were you are in the hall of Peabody first.

i think that first piece is interesting because it looks like cut paper but the letters are uniform. i like the second piece because of its use of the text not just to send a message but also to as an actual an actual medium.
