What inspired me the most this semester? That is such a hard question to answer because there have been many different designers, artists, and articles that have inspired me. Watching all of the videos on TED have helped me learn a lot about designing and what other designers do to solve their problems. At times it is confusing though because one person will say something that helps them while the other will completely disagree with it.
I think the project that inspired me the most was this last one. The speech project made me pick something that had a history behind it and had been a part of a large impact on others lives. The phonograph was a major invention at the time and had changed the way many people lived. Before it there was no way that someone could be recorded and played over and over again. I picked the speech based on those reasons and knew that I wouldn't mind listening to it over and over again. The research that was put into creating a motion of the speech also inspired me. Browsing through youtube trying to find type animations was very beneficial. There are many of them that use the same technique and do not very much in their transitions. My goal was to create a motion that was consistent but used transitions that were unique and fit with the overall tone.
I learned a lot while working on project 4 and do believe that it was because we had to do so much research on other designers and motions. If I really do want to become a designer I have to first find the concept, mood, and tone that I want to depict. I have to stick with it and make it work. Their work inspired me and I realized that if I really do want to become a designer I need to push myself harder. That is what I did for the "cursed" speech.
