The Netflix And Binge Watching podcast is my most informal podcast. Other podcasts had a full or partial script, but for this podcast, Spenser, the podcast’s producer, and I only used an outline. The outline consisted of four parts, one for each part of our podcast. The podcast started with a general overview of how more
Capri In 256 Pixels
Unfortunately, my 16×16 image doesn’t look fantastic blown up– I couldn’t figure out how to draw it in a 16×16 format and also have it remain clear when shown in a size that one could actually see. I took the original image myself when I was in Capri, Italy in the spring of 2015. I …
DK Devolved
I chose to make a 16×16 image of Donkey Kong, always my go-to mario kart character. I picked Donkey Kong because the first sensible thing that came to my mind when thinking about limited pixel size was the original 8-bit Donkey Kong arcade game. In that game, Donkey Kong kidnaps Mario’s (then called “Jumpman”) love […]
Time is Short
Time What I liked about this sketch is how the nature of the sketch forces you to think creatively in order to produce something good within its boundaries. I read the passage and instantly thought that it would be easy to choose something given the content on the page, since the words that stood out […]
256 Points: Tennis Ball
For this sketch I decided to draw an image of a tennis ball. I used the software Paint which I downloaded on the app store. Because the image was so small it was difficult to paint details from the image. For example, I couldn’t draw smaller lines such as the white lines on a tennis …
One Starry, Pixely Night
This sketch assignment reminded me vaguely of the artistic styles of impressionism (particularly the branch of pointillism) and post-impressionism. The ways through these styles played with form and color to … Continue Reading →
256 Pixels: The Not so Incredibly Detailed Hulk
Creating this sketch was quite interesting, especially due to the difficulty in incorporating detail. At first, I chose a more complicated image with more color […]
256 Points — Rob-B-Hood
For this assignment, I recreated the scene of a baby, the protagonist of the film Rob-B-Hood. When I though about what kind of scene I wanted to recreate with the restriction of only 16 times 16 pixels, I decided to not create something complicated in forms of colors and patterns, but the one that is relatively simple. Since I anticipated that the recreation will look dramatically different from the original work if the original picture contains too many details, I wondered if the effect is going to be the same if the original work itself is not complicated. Therefore …
16 x16 Self Portrait Pixel Art Project
For the pixel artwork sketch, I decided to attempt a self-portrait. It was extremely difficult to convey a detailed portrait of myself with only 256 pixels to work with, so I decided that I needed to somehow convey it was me. My red hair is obviously a distinguishable trait that was easy to convey in …
Tiny Resolution, Tiny Dog
Over Thanksgiving break, I met the puppy that my parents welcomed into the family a few weeks ago. I fondly refer to him as my…
