Projects
Designing and illustration are a hobbies that I am much fond of, the list below showcases all the projects that I've created that include designs, drawings as well as stop motion through my lifetime.
They Both Die At The End Screenplay
In MYP3 we are tasked to choose a fragment of a book and produce a screenplay along with a rationale for our cinematic choices. I chose the novel "They Both Die At The End" written by Adam Silvera. In the document below I have attached both the 800 Word Screenplay and 300 Word rationale. I achieved full marks for the screenplay and was one of the few students nominated to become an example graphic novel for the following years for students of the next year. For this Graphic Novel I received an 8,8 (B,D).
Graphic Novel
Along with the Screenplay unit, we were tasked to create a Graphic Novel inspired by us from other graphic Novels. We had to create a presentation on our analysis and a graphic novel as well. Both are attached below. I created this graphic novel from a character that I and my friend created in group 6. For the graphic novel, I received a 7,7 (B,C).
3D Bauhaus Design
A that I was assigned with, was to produce a 3D model of a house. I used a software called, floor-planner for this. The images on the side are 3D renders of my final product. The home is intended to fill a family of 4 which it does with an extra guest room as well.
The video on the side is a full walk-through of the 3D-rendered home that I produced, this gives a viewpoint of how the home would appeal to a human eye level. For this portfolio, I received 8,8,8,8 (A,B,C,D). This year we were given 4 units, all being based on this. In units 1 & 2 we created a physical model out of cardboard, and later on this 3D design. Below I have attached the presentation.
Shaping a Voice Podcast
Along with that task for Design, we were tasked to create a podcast for ELL. With their script and album covers as shown on the side and below. All are being designed, drawn, and edited by me. For this I received an 6,8,7,8 (A,B,C,D)
Season 2 Cover
Episode 8 Cover
The New Yorker Article
Along with that, another ELL task that we had to create was a THE NEW YORKER style article. We had to create it based on some issue, in my case, I chose the Pride Perspectives in Africa, and fit it into the theme of a real article. By analyzing how regular articles I made I took their archetypes and created this project. As an addition I created the drew the front cover as seen on the side. For this, I received a 7,7,6 (B,C,D).
App Design
For Digital Design, our task was too produce an application for a community that we are in and must solve a problem that the community faces. In my case I chose the Bricks In Motion community and produced a high standard presentation and product. The image on the side shows a comparison of my initial design and final product.
For the prototype app of the Bricks In Motion Website, I had to create a Lego Stop Motion advertisement showcasing the videos of the application as seen on the side. Below I have added the app and presentation.
Urban Landscaping
Another task that we were given in Design class was to improve the road in front of our school, along with this using an Arduino Uno kit to create some sort of system that helps improve the traffic on this road. I created this urban landscape from Lego and to display my manufacturing plan I created a Lego instruction manual using Studio 2.0. In the end for this, I received an 8,8,8,7 (A,B,C,D) and the comment from my teacher:
"This will go down as the greatest manufacturing plan in history."
Civil Rights Movement: Academic Poster
Another integrated humanities task was to create a poster based on a civil rights movement. For this, I chose The Dalit Movement. We were tasked to make it in-depth and large. For this, I received an 8,8 (C, D).
Personal Project
For my Personal Project, I explored the 12 Principles of Animation. I created 13 videos, 12 for each of the 1 principles, and a final one showing all principles used together. The final video is a recreation of the Leap of Faith scene from the film, Spiderman Into the Spider-verse. This video has massed to become my most popular video yet with almost 10k views on YouTube (as of 20 Jan 2024).
ePortfolio: Digital Design
For my IB ePortfolio I chose Digital Design and created an advertisement for a school community that I take active part in. Below I have attached the file and on the side my final product. I received 7/7 predicted grade for this.
