ANIMATION

This SAFETY video, for OWL AIRWAYS, was created using a third party animation program called. “GO Animate”. To create the video. I simply selected my characters backgrounds, and props, and edited them accordingly. I custom animated the movements of all of the characters and pictures. I also inserted text boxes in each scene, depicting the audio heard in the background of the safety instructions. The added pictures in the animation, were all edited by me, and include some custom art, which I drew. I also included purposeful misspelling errors of some-words to promote the quirkiness of the airline. The split second black scene, and pretend shaking of screen, mimic the affect of being on an aircraft when it is taxiing down the bumpy runway, as this shaky video quality, is very realistic compared to the real deal. Also the darkness in the background edges of the video is supplied by a computer on film, this is meant to simulate watching a safety video at night in a dark airplane cabin. Finally, this video is water-marked due to the website I used to create this animation, so please disregard the watermark.

VISIT TAMPA AIRPORT (collage)

I created this collage, using photoshop. It represents tourism in Tampa, as well as showing the history of flight with the Tony Jannus Benoist plane in the lower left corner. The birds, are actually art pieces displayed at Tampa International Airport, which hang from the ceiling. I also used steam affects from the brush tool to create contrails coming from the planes engine, and steam from the ship. The plane photo and background, are all original pictures of mine.

VACAYBOT

This sketch depicts rendering

of the robot creature we made in class.

Each body segment was drawn by a different individual.

In my version, I added a creature to the bottom of the bot, and depicts him in a Hawaiian shirt, on vacation, in outer space!

5 Logos and their meanings

5 Logos and their meanings

The British Airways logo depicts a “swoosh” in red and blue colors. The colors represent the United Kingdoms flag, and the BIG capital letters standout to a crowd and shout out that they are the flag carrier of the United Kingdom.

Seen above are the logos of Delta and DELTA airlines. The first logo is the earlier logo form the late 90’s to early 2000’s. The “D” is upper case while the rest is in lower case. The red and blue colors also depict the USA flag. The Triangle, or delta, represents the Greek letter delta. The new logo is more simple and modern, recoloring the Delta to all red and dark red on one side to show contrast. The designers retain blue lettering showing the airlines’ pride for the red, white, and blue.

TWA, is an interesting logo for the now defunct airline. This is because the logo has the acronym for the name of the company in it--unique in the airline industry. The BIG and BOLD, bright red letters draw peoples’ attention, it is instantly recognizable at a visual level. The BIG TWA, is a visual reference for Trans-World-Airlines.

The logo pictured above belongs to Air Canada, the national carrier of Canada. The leaf says it all, because it is Canada’s flag and the airlines logo at the same time. The pixelated leaves give the impression of a shining bright Canadian red maple leaf. Surrounded by green leaves, the dots are off the red maple leaf, which is also the type of red leaf pictured.

American Airlines, a United States “legacy carrier,” has absorbed many airlines over the years to form what American Airlines is today. The first logo pictured was introduced in the late 1970’s and used until 2015. The red and blue “A” represent the United States flag, and the eagle represents our national bird and freedom. Although many aircraft still wear the first livery (logo), the new logo, just introduced this year, still keeps the beak of the eagle from the previous logo, but also incorporates U.S. Airways bright blue, and maintain American Airlines red. This design move shows their recent acquisition of U.S. Airways and still keeps their own heritage. Many contemporary airlines pay homage to the past as well as looking to the future.
