ReplyDelete1. My artistic talent doesn't really work as a tool in my life. My only real *artistic* talent is only applicable when I have access to a computer. My clone, however, utilizes his musical talent with superb (and devastating) effect.
2. Well, I hope any form of talent I have can surface enough to have more of an impact on my life. If it doesn't, I'm going to be an english teacher forever.
3. Why would I be making a dream project in real life? What is this, "Inception"?
1. I use my artistic ability as a TOOL in life to help take good pictures when im on vacation or just walking around town.
ReplyDelete2. I hope the next artistic skill set i achieve next is getting more comfortable with indesign and master it.
3. My dream project would be to make ads for shows i like to watch and get people to watch them by it. Ad for anything i like really.
1. Well, whenever i see a poster or ad i always comment on it, also with photography my family has me take the pictures when we go on vacation because they know i know how to do it.
ReplyDelete2. I am not sure if i want to get a career using my artistic skill set but i never want to stop learning it, even if its only a hobby i still want to include art in my life. I want to learn more things on photoshop and be able to edit pictures any way i want.
3. If i had to do one huge art project it would probably be in a scrapbook, not just a regular scrapbook but a scrapbook with pictures evens, decorations, so that i could include my family and friends and they would be able to remember the even for a long part of there life.
1.) My artistic ability enhances my life because it allows me to take better pictures of moments I want to keep forever. With my photography skills, I don’t have to worry as much about blurry pictures or bad lighting. In addition, I love being able to transfer my ideas onto Adobe Illustrator. I can express what I’m feeling at that point in time.
ReplyDelete2.) I hope to create really cool websites. I’ve worked a bit with HTML, but I want to explore it further. I hope to one day create a website without the help of Weebly.
3.) Once I’m in the real world I want to do more photography. I just love being able to capture a moment. I hope to do photography in a really cool place, like a safari or something.
1. It has become a way to express myself and take out my anger in a healthy outlet.
ReplyDelete2. The next skill would probably be sculpting to help with my 3D animation skills
3. My goal within my artistic strand would be to have my own cartoon on television and to write my own script. Or to have my concept art in an art bible.
1. The TOOL I use for my artistic ability is my imagination. I use when it when I listen to music, watching a comedy video, a parody, or a when I'm walking around town.
ReplyDelete2. I can work on more lip synching with my 2D Animation skills.
3. My goal is to work for Disney and create more 2D Animations for the company.
1. I use my artistic ability as a tool to take pictures when out and to take pictures of and for my family, for making cards for birthdays and Christmas and to make my scrapbook.
ReplyDelete2. I would like to learn so much more about photography and graphic design and web designing so I can hopefully pursue this as my career.
3. When I’m in the “real world” I would like to be combining my photography with my graphic design work. My dream project would be to make a logo, website and business card for a company.
1. I use my artistic ability as a TOOL in my life by seeing things differently. That sounds cliche, but art makes you see and do things that the average person wouldn't. Such as seeing beauty in simple objects.
ReplyDelete2. I hope that my next step in my artistic skill set is learning to play an instrument, because i think it would be very interesting to be able to make my own music.
3. My dream project would probably have to be creating something similar to a documentary that reveals something that is going wrong in the world.
1. I wouldn't say that I use my artistic ability as a tool but more as a way to make others happy. When I take pictures and work with them on Photo Shop, I'm almost always happy with the outcome (as are those who receive them).
ReplyDelete2. I would love to learn more about photography.
3. I would love to travel the world and take pictures for National Geographic.
1. My artistic ability isnt really a tool that can be used in real life, aside from to make little films to entertain me and my friends.
ReplyDelete2. I'm trying to become proficient with Finalcut Pro so I can create more complex films.
3. I would like to make action movies when I'm older.
1. I use my artistic ability to express the way I feel. For example, soft smooth (calm) strokes, in contrast to hard and narrow (angry) strokes.
ReplyDelete2. I would like to learn about 3D motion, models, and animation.
3. When I'm in the "real world" I want to be a video game animator. (Working with 3D models and making them do motions and interacting with other characters or things.)
1. my artistic ability brings joy to my life by giving me something to do when im down.
ReplyDelete2. i am trying to get better at creating architectural structures.
3. i want to creat a really cool house.
1. When I get projects, I like it because I can get as artistic as I want. It enhances my life because when im bored or have nothing to do, I go and look and past things that I have done and it gives me new ideas.
ReplyDelete2. The next step is to look at it and see if there is anything else that I can do to make it look any better. I hope that it involves little changes, not drastic changes, and I want it to look better than it did before I started.
3. I would either like to create cool pictures or learn how to draw better and create drawings or paintings while using drawing skills.
1. My artistic ability helps me in school to better understand certain points in history, for example, we studied that background of vanishing points and being to know what it means helped a lot. I see the world a little differently, I like to try to figure out how to draw hallways in perspective.
ReplyDelete2. I hope I will be able to create more of my own things rather than trace objects.
3. My dream project would be creating a poster or banner for a product.
1) Art increased my life because I can actually draw better then before CoSA.
ReplyDelete2) in my future video projects I want to show my good drawings in my video, or show me re creating a drawing.
3) My dream project would be working as an editor or director of a movie.
1.) My artistic ability has given me attributes of looking outside the box, as well as looking at things with a different perspective.
ReplyDelete2.) I hope to be able to draw into lots of different perspectives to help my all around artistic skills.
3.) I would like to film for an action sports company or product, releasing videos that would further my name out in the videography scene.
1. I use my creativity to better my projects in regular school hours. My other classmates appreciate that.
ReplyDelete2. I think the next step is to learn the ins and outs of Final Cut Pro and get the certification.
3. My dream project is a political satire about the fall of the American Empire due to political corruption, an obesity epidemic, and multiple financial scandals revealed.
1. I utilize my artistic ability in all sorts of ways. My creativity allows me to come up with a variety of solutions for different problems, while my actual artistic ability allows me to express myself. I've taken to drawing my notes in my AP World History class, and I also draw cartoons to go along with my journal entries in my English class. The people around me tend to enjoy my cartoons and drawings, which in turn makes me happy.
ReplyDelete2. My next step would just be to improve. My hope is that I'll be able to study art in college, and through formal classes and practicing everyday, I plan to become the best artist that I can be.
3. I would like to create all sorts of art. I would like to experiment with abstract works, as well as conventional works like landscapes and portraits. I don't know if I really have a "dream project", but I would love to spend a day or two in the European countryside (preferably Scottish or English) just painting the landscape.
1. My artistic ability enhances the lives around me because i have been taking the family photos for my family, so we don't need to go anywhere to get them done. also, i was able to take photographs and get them printed and i matted and framed them for christmas presents for various family members.
ReplyDelete2. I would like to be a photographer, so the next thing i plan on doing is going to a summer college program during the upcoming summer.
3. I would love to be a professional photographer. the things i like most are animal pictures and interesting portraits of interesting people. some of the stuff that has really inspired me were some books i saw by a photographer that went around new york city and took pictures of all of the unique, wrinkly, and interesting people they saw. they also made one of all the dogs they saw. i think that would be something really fun to do, and in the end you would have a book to show for your time and effort.

ReplyDelete1. I utilize my artistic ability when I am filming something to get the right lighting, angles, etc. I have the most fun editing it and putting music to it.
2. The next step in my artistic skill set is to learn more about filming and have more fun with it.
I don't know exactly what it will evolve into, maybe film, writing, or editing. I just want to have fun!
3. Out in the real world, I'd like to get more into film. My dream project would be to make funny films and put them on U-Tube so that anyone who watches them will laugh.
1. I utilize my artistic ability in my life to get little side jobs as filming football and soccer games.
ReplyDelete2. My next step in my artistic skill would to just gain more knowledge and experience in film, editing, and writing.
3. My dream project would probably be something that clearly and artistically expressed who am i and what i love.
1. i use my artistic ability to help me with allot of the things i do for sailing, ex. making boat parts and rigging. also when im sketching ideas or in my designs.
ReplyDelete2. i want to become an engineer and use my artistic ability to make accurate and successful designs
3. i would like to make things that im interested in as well. for example i would use my skill to design high performance boat parts for the boats i sail and also design things as a job.

ReplyDelete*I messed up at the first post. This is the correct one.
ReplyDelete1. I utilize my artistic ability to take photo for family, decorate my house and trying different kind of art material to make some cool stuff. It also helps me in math class, because I get a visualized picture while I'm reading a word problem.
2. I want to get more educate in Art history or design history. So I know different kind of theories that I can apply to my projects later. Also, I want to get more practice at drawing and painting. I really want to have solid drawing skills, so I can draw whatever pops up in my mind.
3. I would love to design something and be able to show it in public. Maybe have my own exhibition.
1. My artistic ability is my life. Everything revolves around film in some way or another. I look at everything like it is a movie. I watch films with a critical eye.
ReplyDelete2. The next step is to work with interesting people. That's always the next step. More people to work with. Musicians, actors, other filmmakers and artists. I want to make music videos, or even commercials for interesting companies. Documentaries are appealing to me as well.
3. Describe the type of art you'd like to create once you are in the "real world". What would your dream project be? I want to make films, plain and simple. My dream project is actually an animated series based on the four years I've been in high school. I want to somehow incorporate every person I've ever known as a character in the show. I want to make a realist style traditional animation. ink I'd like to employ Charlotte Jackson as a key animator or something. I would write it and direct it as best I could, but I'm not an animator. I want to make an animated film.
1. When I look at things with an open and imaginative mind, it allows me to visualize, conceive, and reflect more quickly. It makes things clearer and brings to mind questions and observations that cannot be explained. This is especially helpful while reading or while listening to an argument. You approach things from a myriad facets instead of running into them head-on.
ReplyDelete2. I don't really have any set goals with my artistic skill. The modest amount that I do have I have already been able to utilize in my daily life. I think that the main thing is practice and I've always used it to go through life. Just got to continue that.
3. I don't think I'll be creating much art when I get into "the real world". I mean, I'll still be writing, but not doing any physical artwork besides in my mind.
~I seem to notice more now. When I see something, anything I look at the shadowing and blending. I analyze the perspective and line.
ReplyDelete~I would like to use color and shadowing to make the main object the centerpiece of my work of art. I hope it involves looking at something with a more creative and abstract mindset.
~Personally, I don’t plan to have a job in digital media. But, since technology is becoming more major in everyday life, I would definitely have to deal with computers when I go into the medical field.
1. My artistic ability fades in and out of life. It's usually really strong during classes, because at home I lack the motivation at home unless I listen to something or watch something really inspiring. So it comes and goes.
ReplyDelete2. The next step in drawing is to actually allow an idea to stick with you and phase through your hand onto paper. You cold be really proud of what you've come up with.
3. My dream project would have to be a mural on an abandoned building, or even painting a house to my liking. I would also like to make a comic. There's so many things I want to do with my art, I can't list them all!!
1. I find myself thinking about color contrast and the composition of objects around me often. I think in stills and taking pictures makes me happy, which tends to leave me with a general positive mood.
ReplyDelete2. I hope I can learn how to use, develop, and manipulate film soon.
3. I need my own studio. Neeeeed!!!
1. I use my artistic ability in my life by looking at things around me with a very appreciated eye. The colors we see in our every day life are naturally contrasted and to be able to capture those or capture a moment in a picture is exciting. It enhances my life because it makes writing things more interesting. Drawing stuff on paper to get a better idea of a problem is very beneficial to my class work and it enhances the lives around me because i can explain some concept using a visual analogy, etc.
ReplyDelete2. The next step in my artistic skill set is to keep practicing more and when I have an idea for a project or picture to begin with it right away. I hope it involves photography projects and some website work. I want to achieve a very professional looking marketing design for a company or some sort of poster. I also want to travel to different countries and be able to work with the people and materials there to gain more experience.
3. The type of art I would like to create once I'm in the "real world", not that CoSA isn't the real world, it would be to design a house or some sort of contraption. Or maybe design book covers. My dream project would be to design the new poster for the Sasquatch music festival in Washington State, at least in this point of my life. To be honest, I'm not really sure what my dream dream dream project would be in the long run.
1. i utilize my film skills to make movies for my family.
ReplyDelete2. i want to learn more special effects
3. my dream project would to be an editor of SNL
1. I don’t use my artistic ability in my life because my tool is computer related and I only use it when I’m in cosa.
ReplyDelete2. I hope to develop better skills in maya where I’m able to solve any problem that comes my way.
3. I would like to create realistic scenes whether it be creating a forest or creating a city.
1. I utilize my artistic ability as tool when I film precious family moments with our Flip Mino. It enhances the lives around me because it keeps our best memories of our family.
ReplyDelete2. The next step in my artistic skill set is to do more serious films and do some that I have never done before to further improve my skills for future films.
3. The type of art I'd like to create are movies that have a film noir style in the real world style. My dream project would be to work with Quentin Tarantino and Clint Eastwood on a film produced by James Camera and Steven Spielberg.
1.I make cards for my family on special occasions. My grandparents always make me design their Christmas card. It enhances my life because then I not surrounded by ugly cards.
ReplyDelete2.I want to become a better artist with like paper and pencil. Especially because you have to be able to draw very well if you want to be able to do photo manipulations which is what I want to do.
3.I don't really have a dream project.
