IDEA DEVELOPMENT
BIOGRAPHY:
My name is Hisham Rasheed, I am from India but was born and raised in Kuwait.
I am 20 years old and pursuing graphic designing at Taylor's University in
order to work in the freelance field and not the commercial industry.
I am more of a lazy person but eventually would get the work done even though
I slack a lot. Even though I am far from perfect, I am constantly
striving to improve and understand more about who I am in order to become the
kind of man I can truly be proud of.
My work of art is usually either vector or simple lines but will include the
pink color a lot, I like to visualize my work of art in a dreamy woozy way so
that i can be really creative about it people nowadays call it abstract.
WORK STATEMENT:
In my work, I decided to go on a very simple design with more of an emphasize
on the work.
I used an old picture of me to work on in which I am just lazy chilling on the
couch with a camera in my hand with the sky showing behind me through the
window. and a text showing teen spirit. The color used is mainly light and
dark tones of blue with pink as in for the sky. I tried looking more of a
retro style.
Fig Original Picture
This picture was used as the whole reference is a picture of me I took a year
ago.
Fig Process 1
I isolated myself from the picture and added a fabric cloth texture.
Fig Process 2
I illustrated the background from the original picture.
Fig Process 3
I added a text saying 'Teen Spirit' to the design.
FINAL POSTER

FINAL ANIMATION
Fig Process 1
I animated the background separate from the subject and the sky, added small
movements like floating pillows and moving curtain drapes, and grouped the
whole animated layer into one so that I can add a camera movement scaling down
from the sky through the window to the main couch with the subject and the
font.

Process 3 shows the final grouping and animated poster and the separation of
the sky and main layer.
Fig- Animation
I used a music track which I will provide the link down below and also sound
effects for various motions like wiggling, scaling out, etc.

REFLECTION
After effects were tricky to get hold of but I had a very small previous experience with premiere pro so it was really helpful for me to work with the keyframes. The Camera part was my favorite as in how I could create my own studio setup through layers and play with a fake camera. Poster designing was a bit tricky as well since I didn't have a clear idea of how to animate a poster and make it look good. Overall really had a great experience working with adobe Ae.
