The Millennium High School Swim team is specifically for females with swimming abilities that could benefit the team success in meets and tournaments. This dynamic team is a well equipped team in terms of talent and the swimmers are driven with the ambition to win and to give there all in practice and meets. The swimming season starts from the end of August to mid November. Throughout that time the team travels to meets and give it their all to come out with the win. Two to three meets happen about once a week so a lot of enjoyment, fun, and competitive spirt is evident during that time. The team's coach is a Physical Ed. teacher Mrs. Simms. Even though the team seems dedicated to hard work, they have a lot of fun doing what they love and socializing with the swimmers that are helping them get better at what they do. 

Typefaces

This Millennium High School font is written in a  bolded sans serif typeface. It is used as the heading of the student planner on all of the planners that everyone was given. This typeface is appropriate for its use because it is meant to be noticeable and pop right out, which is what it does. 

This "December" in the student handbook is written in decorative text. It is big and bold and looks like someone sketched it in. This typeface is the typeface used for every month in the student planner. It is effective because although it is small, it still gets the job done and is aesthetically pleasing. 

This is March in spanish and it is written next to the english writing of  each month. This is in script because each letter connects and it looks handwritten. This typeface is appropriate for its use because it is meant to be used as more of a subscript so it is small and simple but effective. 

This "Jordan" name is the brand of a line of sneakers created by Michael Jordan. This is a more decorative typeface because it is designed to be simple. This is on the tongue of the shoe so it is meat to be slightly hidden but still there, therefore the typeface is appropriate here.  

This is the watermark on a picture on my wall. It is written in script and although it is typed out, it looks like she write it herself. This is meant to be hidden enough that it doesn't mess up the image, but still noticeable so no one copywrites her pictures. This typeface is appropriate because it looks like a signature. 

This typeface is for everyday of the week in the student planners. It is written in slab serif with very thin lines. It is meant to be noticeable to remind the student so of the day of the week, but it not supposed to draw the eye to that particular area. This typeface is perfectly appropriate for that. 

I have a beautiful connection with the script font. The smoothness of the writing resembles the way I carry myself. Also the fact that the script font is not bold or eye catching, its more laid back like me I usually go with the follow and that is exactly how script is created. One final connection is that script gives off a fancy feel and I see my as Fancy.

The I that is on the "ground" of the picture resembles a stick figure person,  who is dead and laying down because of death. And the word killed correlates well with it.

AFTER

Concept: 

I used my brother for this project because of his youthful appearance in relation with wearing a hoodie. In todays society many citizens view hoodies as a sign of rebellion of a stereotype for a thug. I wanted to be able to prove that not all people who wear hoodies are thugs, especially in the Black race. The use of his face conveys much innocence and makes people believe he wouldn't do anything that is thug like. This counters the connection people make with hoodies and thugs. I also used the background of buildings to express how realistic the picture is, and how it is and actual problem in the world.

Transformation:

I started off with just the background and then I used the other picture of my brother. 

I used the selections tool to select the outline of my brother and copy pasted him onto the original background.

After I pasted 3 more picture of just him and I gave them all different opacities and I used scaling to make one bigger than the other.

Only to the background I used exposure changes and curves.
