Multimedia seniors hosted its annual Senior Multimedia Show at California Lutheran University in the William Rolland Art Center on April 23 from 2:30-3:30 p.m.ย
Students, faculty, and attendees were able to view different pieces created by the seniors in different art classes such as digital art, photography, and a video game.
Attendees were welcomed by many different pieces such as โThe Chinese Zodiacsโ by senior Alyssa Maxey.ย
โI am part Chinese, and Iโve always been very heavily surrounded by my Chinese side. My painting is of all the Chinese zodiacs, and it just reminded me of growing up in my grandparentsโ house,โ Maxey said.ย
Maxey created another piece, a Chinese Topography digital art piece along with a mock brand โThe Chubby Dumplingโ she hopes to open one day.
โMy poster is a watercolor-inspired background. And I used Chinese type, and that means prosperity. Thatโs just always something that my parents and grandma have said growing up. Thatโs just been a meaningful symbol throughout my life,โ Maxey said.ย
The show included โChino the Chinchillaโ, a video game created by senior Christian Anderson.
ย โI just wanted to try to make a game thatโs a little bit more bigger, grander, more in the lines of what people think of traditional games instead of what I made last year, which was an endless runner-type game, just that quick mobile game. So I tried to make something bigger,โ Anderson said.ย
Anderson said the game consists of five levels that each have a different theme and collectibles. The game was also displayed and available to play at the event.ย
โIt didnโt try to be anything too fancy, and it didnโt try and overcomplicate things. It just gave us something that we all know and love in the way itโs supposed to be, and they just pop out in style. In a bold style and ambitious sense of nature. You can tell they mean business,โ attendee and senior Angel Prado said.ย
