David Z Intro

Hello world!

My name is David Z, and this is my blog. I am a student at the University of Tampa, currently studying under the film major. I love movies, and just recently watched Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, a beautiful romantic drama starring Jim Carrey. I also love music and have recently gotten into the band Della Zyr, as beautiful shoegaze and post-rock unit that just started in 2022. I would highly recommend them!

My dream is one to one day make movies in the genre of romance and drama, as well as direct my own animated movie. I have several hundred pages of idea already written out. I am currently working on my first animated short film with an animator I hired over the internet, and am also writing out the plot for a romantic comedy I plan to direct and star in.

I created this post for my Digital Media class, taught by Ms. Roundtree. I am excited for the class going on. I think the information is going to be interesting, and after one class I already know how to make an ASCII art selfie of myself, which is very cool. The classmates seems nice and I look forward to getting to know everybody.

Here is my selfie, and next to it the ASCII picture I took of myself!

With all the glitter, I can't imagine how many edits it must have taken, along with the bruise effect he put on himself.  He may have just extended the photo slightly longer to the side and then added more glitter, which I imagine would be easier. 2. https://www.instagram.com/p/BZyr9r7BNTm/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== I like the vibe of this photo, the colors and people in the background is something I would probably want to replicate for my Somewhere project. I might take out the goofiness part of it though, and try to make it look like I was seriously in there. 3. There was really no photoshop in this, but I just like how he said "I like his face." I like his face too. 4.  As an amateur filmmaker and amateur actor, I really enjoyed and respected pretty...

Using Tools in Illustrator

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GzumUieDPY   The video by Flow Studio moved a bit fast, but it was very straight to the point. I liked how he would mostly explain how to activate the tools with a keyboard shortcut key, like using “T” for text. I will definitely be using the shortcuts, that’s going to make it much easier. I think I will mostly struggle with the curvature tool, it looks hard to use and a bit complicated. Also this guy apparently has a game on Kickstarter which he advertised a few times. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzilL2zvldo   Bevcause the curvature tool seemed challenging, I watched thie video to help. The guy recommending to draw the outline is good advice, I will definitely be doing that. I like how you can choose whatever point you want along the lines drawn, but the whole idea of vectors and drawing these lines still feels complicated, its something I’m going to have to work on. I do appreciate that the guy draws out a Batman symbol.  https://www...
