1.IDEA DEVELOPMENT

Write a biography about yourself.

My name is Xing Yu. I am 18 years old, and I come from China.

For me, life is like a huge canvas waiting to be filled with creativity and passion.

Since I was a child, I have developed a strong interest in design and art.

I love to observe the world around me and capture the beauty of every detail and moment.

This hobby gradually evolved into an integral part of my life, so I decided to follow my dream and pursue a bachelor's degree in creative media design.

As a child, I was curious about art and creative expression.

I like to create paintings with paint and paper and record the highlights of life with a video camera.

As time went on, I gradually found that my passion for design and photography became deeper and deeper.

I started experimenting with various software and tools to explore the techniques of photo and video editing.

After entering the university, I chose creative media design as my major. In this major, I learned design skills and artistic principles, software and tools, and mastered the skills of graphic design, illustration and typography.

Explore how to turn my creativity and ideas into visual works.

I am passionate about experimenting with different media and constantly expanding my skills and horizons.

Each project is an opportunity for me to challenge myself, discover new ways of creating, and show my unique perspective to the world.

I am also interested in post-production of photos and videos and am learning how to retouch and edit using professional editing software.

I hope to be an excellent designer in the future and influence and inspire others with my creativity and visual art.

I believe in the power of creativity to change the world, and I will relentlessly pursue my dreams, continue to grow and progress, and make positive contributions to the field I love.

Write a statement about your work:

Our goal is to create a dreamlike scene by synthesizing a photo using Photoshop technology. This photo will blend my own photo with other elements including wings, castles, clouds, crystal crowns, bouquets and petals for an intoxicating dreamlike feel. We hope to convey an atmosphere of mystery, romance and transcendence through this photograph, immersing the viewer in a fantasy world.

In the process of compositing this photo, I fused different elements together to create a realistic effect. Through image processing and compositing, we will ensure that every element in the photo looks natural and realistic, making the viewer feel as if they are in a dreamlike scene. Every detail will be paid attention to ensure visual harmony and unity throughout the photo.

We will pay attention to the color and light processing of the photos to create a dreamy atmosphere. The clouds will display soft hues and rich layers, the wings will radiate a warm glow, and the castle will appear magnificent. The crystal crown will shine with a mysterious glow, and the bouquet and petals will bring a fresh fragrance. These elements will be interwoven to create a dreamy and pleasing visual experience.

Ultimately, we hope this composite image will inspire people's innermost dreams and imaginations. It will be a window that will take the viewer into a fantastic and fascinating world. We will bring a transcendental experience to the viewer through synthetic technology and artistic perception. This photo will leave a deep impression with its unique dreamlike feeling, evoking emotional resonance in the viewer and making them feel spiritual pleasure and satisfaction.

REFLECTIONS

When it comes to poster design, Photoshop can be used to process and edit photos, add special effects and filters, adjust colors and lighting, etc. By using these tools, we can combine personal photos with other image elements, such as backgrounds, graphics, text, etc., to create a unique style and express personal images and ideas. Whether it's emphasizing an individual's personality, showing interests, or conveying a certain emotion or message, Photoshop can help us create an impressive personal poster. When it comes to video production, After Effects provides a wealth of animation and visual effects tools that allow us to create dynamic, vivid personal videos. By combining different images, video clips, text and special effects together, we can create vivid videos.
