This images the use of repetion in each frame but with slight changes it gives a stand out effect to each cube bring an interesting composition to the images

Everlasting circles

This composition uses the rules of size. It shows cirlces going from larger to bigger creating a more striking image the contrast between the back drop also emphasises the changes between the circles in the image.

This is a project in which we used maya to create our very own robots!, My idea was pretty simple I wanted to create an abandoned robot left to rust away that something new was growing out of it (some sort of radiocative flower) Which I thought was super fun to learn as I have never used 3d modelling softwares

★Reflection★

Reflective essay – With my website I wanted to express some of my character with how I styled it and the components I wanted to choose. I started off by designing it using Figma making sure to have a clear style between all my pages and It gave me a great start to help with what I actually wanted to make. In my Figma design I added sidebars that were spiderwebs giving a clear aesthetic to the website. Starting off with the html and css I did struggle with what I was to do but the more I delved into it the more simple it became to me. I can now say that with this practice I am able to create and understand a clear website using the bootstrap formatting. I started off by using the bootstrap worksheet as a starting point. I added my content and replaced the images and descriptions that were already there. This gave me a clear structure to build off as I was able to reuse the content I already had to add in more. I decided I wanted to add a navbar that was interactive to take you to different parts of a page, using the to make the buttons jump to each section that I created. We already had the navbar code but I made sure to change the format a little so it was more centered and so it always appeared at the top. I had to figure out how to prevent the over scroll effect using the css code I was able to change the over scroll behavior to none and make the over scroll hidden. I also wanted to add a bit of character to my text so I found code online that I used to create a rainbow gradient effect that creates an animation in my nav bar that changes the colours of each letter, going from all the colours in the rainbow, I also used the same colour and animation for the footer further pushing the overall aesthetic of the page. I did hit a wall with trying to add the sidebars for awhile, I went from first trying to get the image to duplicate all the way down the page. This created a multitude of problems and the code was getting a little to complicated, I made sure to get help with this and GiGi helped me understand the ideas of the fixed images, I discovered that with css I could set the side bar images fixed to the sides and use the z index so it is put in the right place ! There are definitely some improvements to be made to my website but I think with what I have learnt and put into the creation this is a great structure to build off and I will be trying to add more into it in my free time as I have enjoyed the process put into it.
