A5 Assignment

            Since I was a kid, I really enjoy watching cartoon animation, specially Disney. Disney is one of the best animation company in the world. Everyone like Disney. There are many characters that have been created by Disney. However, Mickey Mouse still is my favorite character. Mickey is also a logo of Disney. I decide to create the Mickey Mouse Disney logo using my hands. I photocopy the palm of my hand to create the ears of Mickey Mouse. The rest of the logo I photocopy my arm and put it all together.

Robot

For this a
ssignment, I decided to do a 30 x 30 squares rock hooking. I created an image of a robot. I chose a robot because technology is growing nonstop in the past century. Technologies rapidly developed to meet the needs of many people. Many things are programmed for computer to do instead of human. It's more convenient for people. I think, in the future, there will be robots programmed to help people with the daily life jobs.

Soccer

This video is the 200 frames flip book stop animation about soccer and the ability to not give up. The man, in the beginning of the video, kicks the ball but he misses the goal. However, he does not let himself down because of his failure. Therefore, he decides to try again. He finally scores. Then he celebrates his goal. Through this stop animation video, I wants to show that we shouldn't allow failure to ruin your confidence. Instead, we need to stand up and try it again.

ASCII Art

          ASCII art is a design that consist of many pictures pieces or characters together to create a bigger picture. This type of art is also called "computer text art." It is a graphic design technique by computer for animation, movie or picture. The name ASCII is standing for American Standard Code For Information Interchange. The code was founded by the American National Standards Institute, also known as ANSI, in the beginning of 1960 as a way to present and read characters of Latin-based alphanumeric.

          It takes a lot of effort to create the ASCII art. However, you don't need to have a special software or program to make one. Many people simply used Window notepad, Microsoft Word, etc. It takes times to fit all the characters together to create a beautiful picture. Usually, the artist takes about 1 hour to 3 hour  for a small picture. You can change the slope of your picture by add or reduce characters from the image. Imagination is one of the key factor to create this type of art. Human imagination is limitless. Therefore, it gives your creation the uniqueness.

         When I first see ASCII art, I thought it is very different form the ordinary pictures that we see everyday. This type of art looks very creative. By looking at the art, it gives me a unique feeling. When I look closely to the picture, I can see all the character that the artist used. When I look at the picture as a whole, I can see the incredible picture that the artist is trying to portray. It is amazing to see all the character connected together for a better image.
