Major Project/ Adv. Computer Graphics
The Self Portrait Package
Name___________________________

 

Dripping FaucetProject- create a self portrait package that includes a short video (plus the cover that holds the DVD or CD), a written document, a web site, a small (11x14”) poster, a three dimensional object and a clever package that brings the entire project together. There should a theme (which will include an object or a symbol) used throughout the project and it should be consistent in each of the different parts. Remember this is a self portrait project, explaining to the audience who you are (hobbies, beliefs, biography, etc.) and showcases some of your achievements so far.

Go to fullsize image  Theme- you should include an overall theme throughout the entire project. Big/new ideas= light bulb, Inspired by music= music note, etc. This theme will be displayed in each of the sections of the project and will be the 3-D object or part of the object.

  Written Document- more than a written page, more like a creatively designed mini book or a creatively cut illustrative object that includes your writing. Be sure to utilize your theme.

  Web Sites- Design a  short auto-biographical website that really showcases your talents. Be sure to include your theme.

 
Short Video
-Create a short video that is like a video portfolio, include autobiographical information and showcase your talents. This video could be an actual video or series of stills put to music/sound, or a combination of both. Be sure to include your theme. We will burn this video to DVD or CD; you should design the cover for the Video.

 

Cigarro's Retail Ad Creative Poster- Utilizing your theme design a poster (11x14”) that announces the project or is used in correlation with the other parts.
Poster should use your theme.

 

  3-D Object- The hardest of the parts, is to create a 3- d object that becomes an actual representation of your theme. This object could be a found object, but should be altered in a creative way by you or you can create the object entirely yourself. Example- light bulb- painted and wording added to simulate the creative light bulb.

The Package- Lastly you must create the package that will house all of the separate parts of this projects. It should be more than just a box, more of a foldable display or pop up container. Again the theme should continue throughout.



Start with a theme or an individual idea and build from there-  7 separate parts = 7 weeks
Your choice of which to work on first, but you should have 3 separate areas completed by the end of the 3rd quarter. GOOD LUCK and BE CRATIVE!
