Welcome

Enjoy my portfolio and learn about me

I'm a high school student learning and working to pursue my dream in becoming a professional graphic designer.

T-shirt Design

For this project, I created a design that it then printed onto a shirt. This design is a flag split down the middle with different flags on each side. On the left is the flag of the Philippines. And on the right is the flag of Laos. I chose to split the two flags to represent my ethnicity. The word "Filao" at the top of my design is a mix of the words Filipino and Lao. Now I can show off my Southeast Asian roots when I wear my shirt.

In this project, I used Adobe Lightroom to edit pictures to enhance colors and details. In each photo I adjusted the exposure, contrast, highlights, shadows, texture, clarity, vignette, and colors to make the photos come to life.

Composite

In this project, I used two images that I found from unsplash.com and put them together to create a composite using photoshop. I used one image for the background, and took the other image and erased the parts I didn't need with the eraser tool. I made sure that my second image's opacity was low so I could see how much I needed to erase. I then used the smudge tool to blend the two images together. And finally I used the paint tool and used colors from the second image with a low opacity for a better blend between the pictures.

Repeated Outlines

I learned how to use the smooth, stroke, and object selection tool to add color to any portrait. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMu7x8fAErY&list=PLD8AMy73ZVxX2qSsYeuG0CuDusi_oBNeO&index=2

For this project, I created a template for the culinary students at the Davis Catalyst Center to spotlight them and their baking/cooking creations. I used Canva to create both of the templates and designed this template using pre-made graphics that you can find on the Canva website.

Slow Shutter speed
PD project

For this project, I chose to take a digital photo using slow shutter speed. I had someone move string lights around as if it was a lasso. I took these photos in slow shutter speed to capture all the movements of the lights. Once I had a good photo I used Adobe Lightroom to edit and enhance details and colors

T-Shirt Design

For this project, I created my own t-shirt design using Adobe Photoshop. I used different brush tools with different opacities to create a koi fish in water with lotus flowers. 

Photo Corrections

For this project, I restored a broken discolored image on Adobe Photoshop. I used the spot healing brush tool to fix the corners and tears in the image. And for the coloring I used the neutralized filter option and let the software decide the colors of the image. I then adjusted the colors to make them look realistic.
