Introduction
Here you will see the summary of both individual and group work completed over Semester 2. Taking inspiration from simple and clean websites, I have made use of After Effects and Photoshop to add graphical animations to this site. Hope you enjoy browsing through my site as much as I've enjoyed creating it!
Workshops 1–4
In this semester, we have participated in four different workshops such as Creative Coding, Projection Mapping, Making, and Physical Computing. All in which are a very new experience to me. Documenting the process throughout all four projects, here you will see the deliverables that were created by my groupmates and I.

Fleur 'n eggs
Choosing to create NFTs trhough image generation, my group and I wanted to hop on the NFT character trend and create a bunch of fun images that people could relate to. Fleur 'n eggs is a series of flower and eggs NFTs each having their own special facial expressions, accessories, shoes and also their best buddy friend.
We decided to code out its body so that in every image generated, its ever-changing body would create a new shape so that no two nfts are exactly the same. Adding on a total of 4 different element with different coloured backgrounds, we were able to generate over 5,000 combinations in P5js.
The biggest learning point in this projetc was figuring out how to use array code in P5js to give us the random mix of elements.

Eat Your Veggies!
This concept initially came about as one of my groupmates declared that she does not eat vegetables so we decided to dedicate this project to shame her into eating her veggies. Eat Your Veggies is a seemingly mindless and just plain funny, whilst projecting abstract videos and text onto two different cutout shapes.
Taking the main colours of commonly found vegetables such as broccolli, carrot, corn and cabbage, my group created 3 different abstract videos in AfterEffects as well as a text video to be used as the background.
We were then able to take the visuals created and imported them into P5js where we created masks to control the points of the video as they were being projected onto the 3D shape cutouts.
