Lucas Pacella FMX-210 Fall 2023

 For this project, I had to insert myself into a film or TV show and make it look realistic. I chose Detective Pikachu for this assignment, being one of my favorite movies. The colors and the scale aren't perfect, and I accidentally put all of the effects all into one layer. However, I'm still proud of it regardless.

 

  While working in Adobe Illustrator, I was tasked to create a punk-inspired poster that conveyed a message. These posters also contained me in a self portrait style. The specific layout was inspired in part by Abigail Larson's artwork for MTG, specifically her art for Necropotence.

  This piece was created in Adobe Illustrator using line and text fill tools based on a pre existing image of my face. Every word has a meaning, whether its my name, something I like to eat, or a show or game I enjoy. For example, around 10 words on this piece relate to Spongebob Squaepants in some way, as my roommate and I were watching lots of Spongebob around the time we were doing this project.
