Emotion is color

Black represents elegance in this picture. Her wearing the black dress makes her look more elegant.

Blue in this picture represents confidence. This girl dyed her hair blue, which is a pretty bold thing to do since it stands out among others. Yet she smiles knowing she's showing how confident she is.

 Green in this picture represents freshness. The grass looks awesome and almost like it was untouched.
 Orange in this picture represents restful feeling. Here in this tropical area, you have that peace feeling. 
 Purple in this picture represents power. This woman is (obviously) royalty, due to her stance and sporting off purple in her crown and cape. You could see in her face that she's all about wealth and power.
 White in this picture represents innocence and purity. The pope here is wearing all white, which is the best color to use for a man of that job.
Yellow in this picture represents joy. The man is jumping for joy, and the yellow sun is reflecting off of him.

The Importance of Emotion in Design


http://thenextweb.com/dd/2014/02/25/importance-emotion-design/  This is a link to an article that talks about the importance of emotion in a design. 


1.) The design will touch the observer when its visually appealing, enjoyable, reminds them of past memories, and gets a bit personal. Personal in a way where it makes them reflect on their personality.

2.) The elements that make a good Web Design are first impressions, accessibility, and cost of it. If you website looks terrible and have bad photos, the observer would obviously leave. Make it easy to go place to place in a website will get you big points since they;re on your website to finish a specific task.

3.)It is extremely relevant because it shows how much emotion a designer could put into his/her work. The more emotionally attractive a design is, the more the designer is praised at doing so. 

4.) Yes I do agree. I'm not sure if we gave these colors emotion, or they've always represented it. Colors make us think and we apply it to our daily lives. Red is almost always associated with anger, but also love. Blue is always represented as sadness, but also a calm nature.

I wasn't able to watch a video on how to do this due to school blocking YouTube. I made this ocean with typed instructions. The instructions were very simple and I had no trouble finding what was instructed. The only problem I had was looking for a .AVI file but it wasn't within the computer. Pretty good result for a JPEG image.
