(8/6/2021) Day Fourteen at Grace Baptist Church Internship

Image
Day fourteen and final day at the internship at Grace Baptist Church was three hours and thirty-seven minutes, which is from 9:41 am to 1:18 pm. Daniel wanted me to continue making images on Adobe Photoshop for Grace Baptist Church's Eggstravaganza video. The real reason why the iPad was having technical difficulties is because of the charger losing the ability to charge the iPad. I continued working on my project of a hot dog with a bun. In the first layer, I added the red shadow on the hot dog. Daniel taught me how to use different hues to make shadows instead of using darks and lights of the same color group. He even showed me how to copy an image of a circle and then draw shadows and lights using different hues. I added a light orange shadow on the right side of the bun and also for the left side of the bun. I then made light-colored lines in the ketchup and mustard for detail and made darker yellow lines on the bottom of the mustard. I made another project of the popcorn desig...

(8/5/2021) Day Thirteen at Grace Baptist Church Internship

Image
Day thirteen at the internship at Grace Baptist Church was four hours, which is from 9:41 am to 1:41 pm. Daniel wanted me to continue making images on Procreate for Grace Baptist Church's Eggstravaganza video. However, I had technical difficulties with the iPad because it kept going off every time I turn it back on and put in the code. I had to wait for Daniel to come back from his two meetings to find out if I should continue working on my moonbounce design on Procreate or use my download to trace it on Adobe Photoshop. He decided for me to continue on Photoshop and assist me in gaining access to the church’s sound booth desktop. I uploaded the saved download of my moonbounce outline into the background layer and made another layer to trace over it. I even added the four crosses on each of the four cone-shaped roofs. I made another layer behind the first to color in all the areas in the moonbounce. I colored in the roofs, the top part of the base, and the bottom part of the base w...

(7/30/2021) Day Twelve at Grace Baptist Church Internship

Day twelve at the internship at Grace Baptist Church was three hours, which is from 10:06 am to 1:06 pm. Daniel wanted me to continue making images on Procreate for Grace Baptist Church's Eggstravaganza video. Daniel first tasked me to draw a third easter egg. I drew out the black outline for the egg in the first layer in front of the background layer. I then made the egg shape lean to the left, similar to the other two eggs. I colored the egg green using another layer behind the outline layer. I used the final layer to add yellow crosses, light pink lines, light blue lines, and pink and blue dots. I then used the eraser option to erase any messy areas in the easter egg drawing. Daniel will then used the egg without the background layer to paste in his video. Daniel then wanted me to help adjust and film Bill Blackford for his Weekly Devotional Video called "Owning Your Faith." We filmed twice because it was hard for Bill to read the script from Daniel's iPad since it...

(7/29/2021) Day Eleven at Grace Baptist Church Internship

Day eleven at the internship at Grace Baptist Church was three hours and fifteen minutes, which is from 10:30 am to 1:45 pm. Daniel wanted me to make images for Grace Baptist Church's Eggstravaganza video. Daniel first tasked me to draw sketch ideas for easter eggs, easter egg baskets, moonbounces, treats, facepaint images, game activities, and mini-golf. Daniel wanted me to make the egg designs first in Procreate and then delete the background layer so he can paste them into his video slideshow. I made the first egg with a black outline and made it lean to the left. I made another layer behind the first layer with the outline and colored the egg sky blue. I then made another layer in front of the sky blue layer and made yellow crosses with two brown lines in each cross. I then made one last layer to make black lines around the egg to add texture. I then clean some of the edges in the layers using an eraser. In the second egg, I drew the same black outlines with it leaning to the l...

(7/23/2021) Day Ten at Grace Baptist Church Internship

Day ten at the internship at Grace Baptist Church was three hours, which is from 10:06 am to 1:36 pm. Daniel wanted me to make another "Autism Awareness Month" social media artwork for next year on Procreate. He wanted me to remake one of my sketches from yesterday that shows hands piling up on one another and the top hand resembling puzzle pieces. I used a pink background layer for the artwork. Then I decided to make each hand on separate layers. I used a black calligraphy brush to outline each hand using the digital pen. I used an eraser option to smooth out the arms, palms, and fingers. It took time to make each hand since I had to hide all but one layer nine times because it would make it easier for me to draw. I had to make the arm not too long because I needed to figure out the location of each arm and hand in the image. I made each arm and hand different skin colors so that they will not blend. The skin color goes into a pattern of light skin and dark skin as a form of...

(7/22/2021) Day Nine at Grace Baptist Church Internship

Day nine at the internship at Grace Baptist Church was three hours, which is from 9:30 am to 12:30 pm. Daniel is on vacation to Florida from the 17th to the 22nd. Today I had to work on my artwork at home. Daniel wanted me to think about what kind of Autism Speaks social media artwork he can post for Autism Awareness next year. I made three sketch ideas of what the artwork should look like. The first sketch idea was to have hands piling up on one another and that one of those hands made out of puzzle pieces. The second idea was tree-shaped hands with puzzle pieces as the leaves. The third sketch idea was having the grass with plants with puzzles as leaves and the sun made out of puzzle pieces. I decided to go for the second sketch idea for the project. I tried to use Vectr at first, but then I saw that it does not color very well. I used the Adobe Spark app for my artwork instead. I used google to search for images that I could use in Adobe Spark. I chose a light blue for the backgroun...

(7/16/2021) Day Eight at Grace Baptist Church Internship

Image
Day eight at the internship at Grace Baptist Church was three hours, which is from 9:44 am to 1:10 pm. Daniel wanted me to sketch out three ideas that show someone using binoculars to search for a cross representing Exploring Christianity. I made two sketches ideas of one large sketch of someone searching and a small sketch. Daniel then told me to stop drawing and help him set up the lights and camera for Akin Omisanmi's weekly devotional video called "The Desire to be Great". I helped adjust the camera and recorded Akin while Daniel held up his iPad for Akin to read the script. We had to record three times because the other two times had a glare in his glasses and the head was cut off. After finishing the video, I created one more sketch idea that had crosses in the man's binoculars. Daniel then had me trace the photo of the largest sketch on Procreate on a square layout with a digital pen on a separate layer but this time with replacing the eyes in the lens with cro...
