ULITOKA WAPI (where did you come from?) -Calligram Project- Letter in kiswahil

 KENYA

Hujambo Nigel,

Ninakutumia barua hii kukukumbusha kila wakati ni wapi umetoka na urithi wako. Unatoka katika nchi nzuri ya Kenya ambapo una wanyama wa kushangaza kama Simba ambapo unaweza kuona kwenye safari na makabila ya kushangaza kama vile maasaais. Una watoto wanaocheza kwenye mto na miili ambayo imewekwa alama ya lugha za kikabila. Unahitaji pia kukumbuka amani na umoja nchini ya Kenya kwani tutasimama kila wakati umoja. 

Huko Kenya tunayo maneno mengi pia. Maneno haya ni muhimu sana kwani ndio yanayotumika kufundisha ujana juu ya maisha. Pia ni aina ya sanaa kwani watu hutumia katika ushairi wao na muziki. Baadhi ya maneno ni:


- Hakuna matata

- Karibu 

- Tuko Pamoja

- Mapenzi mubashara 

- Umoja ni nguvu utengano ni udhaifu 

- Kila jambo na wakati wake  

- Asiyefunzwa na mamaye hufunzwa na ulimwengu 

- Adui Mpenda

- Siku njema huonekena asubuhi

- Yote yang’aayo si dhahabu 

- Haba nah aba hujaza kibaba


Maneno hapo juu kimsingi ni maneno ambayo huambiwa wanafunzi katika shule za mitaa kuwafundisha masomo ya maisha. Wale kwa ujasiri ni maneno yangu ninayopenda kwani yana maana kubwa kwao na yanaweza kufasiriwa tofauti. Ninaipenda nchi yangu na ambayo nilitoka kwani iliniumba na kunijenga kuwa mtu ambaye nimekuwa leo.

Mimi ni wa kabila la Meru ambapo tunajulikana kama kabila lisilo na msimamo. Hatuna shida na makabila mengine, lakini sisi ni wa ukoo ambao hufanya, bantu. Ninajivunia kabila langu kwani liliwaumba wazazi wangu kuwa watu wao pia. Mimi pia hujivunia kabila langu kwani mila hiyo pia hufanya watu wengi kuniheshimu zaidi Kenya. Kabila letu liko Meru ambapo tuna maeneo mengi ya kijani-kijani na wanyama wazuri karibu. Ninapenda kurudi Meru kwa sababu naona familia yangu iliyoenea na mababu zangu wote walizikwa. Mwishowe, jina langu la pili ni Mwenda, hii hutafsiri kwa furaha na furaha huko Meru na ni jina ambalo babu yangu marehemu alinipa. Hii inanifurahisha sana.

 Soma hii baadaye wakati utasahau ulikotokea.

 

Regards,

Canvas Project

Image
  The first task i was introduced to was coding images into a canvas using adobe illustrator . Out of all the projects I worked on, this was the most difficult and most challenging. The photo I selected really made me happy because I had an amazing time doing this project. For my final project I had a very difficult time doing it as a chose a very had image to focus on, but I really enjoyed learning the new skill in coding images on Adobe illustrator. I should've worked on the project more thoroughly so It would've looked way better. It took me a long time to complete and it also didn't turn out well either. But the work we focused in class, such as coding in Pikachu was a lot of fun.

Logo Project

  For the logo project, we had to describe ourselves in 5 words and be able to be creative enough to come up with a logo of a business with one of the words which describe you. This project was a lot of fun mainly because you really got to tap in and use your imagination to be able to come up with the best logo. With the final product, I know I could’ve done a way better Job compared  to the drafts I had. I used Adobe illustrator for these posters and this was one of the first projects we worked on illustrator. To now know the different things you can do with adobe illustrator , I can add a new skill. I could've done a way better job in designing the logo though.

GIF AND ANIMATION

Image
 For the last project of the semester, we used a number of adobe software to come up with a gif and animation. For this we had to use photoshop, premiere and garage band as well. I had to create an animation of me doing something. In this case, i created one of me dancing on a stage and then eventually moves on to dancing in a safari park in Kenya. It was a process to do this project, It took me ages to complete it and is probably the hardest project I have ever worked on, at the same time, it was so much fun because it was challenging but the end result was also really good. If there is one project that I will always be proud and say I did, it's the GIF and Animation project.
