photo editing in photoshop


                                  Photo editing in photoshop


what I learned

 I learned a lot while doing this project. It was our first project that we had to do this school year, I thought it was going to be really hard because  I hadn’t done anything with Photoshop since the last day of school.  Luckily the project was easier than expected because we followed step-by-step off of videos.  I liked this project a lot because we got to do more photo editing while last year we did more of creating logos.  I feel that I learned so much from just doing this first project and I can’t wait to see what I will learn throughout the school year. 


Tools

 Like I said before we are doing more photo editing this year. With that comes a lot of new tools that we did not use before. It was really fun to see all of the tools in photoshop, I didn’t even know you could do such things to a picture. We used tools like the lasso tool, refine selection brush, and the spot healing brush. Those tools did things like duplicate the area and allow you to move it some place else. I can’t wait to learn more about photoshop tools.


incorporating skills

I know that I will be incorporating a lot of things I learned from these videos in future projects. In the videos we did the basics with all of the tools so that in later projects we will be able to do so much more. While using skills from this project I will also be using  skills that I learned last year in graphic design. Even though so far the two years are different as far as projects go I feel like eventually there will be projects where the two areas of graphic design combine.

On the first day we got our teams and started thinking of ideas that we could draw that would symbolize each one of us. But the symbols had to sort of have the same theme throughout the drawing. So we each came up with four ideas that we could use. Some were similar and some not at all. For my symbols I chose a red rose which means promise, a sun which I think means happy, a tree for nature, hearts for love, and an American flag for USA. To be similar we all tried to do nature related things but like I said before some were a little off topic. On day two our groups started sketching the things we wanted to draw on paper. Some things that people chose they didn't like anymore so they changes some symbols. What I did is I had a few symbols from the day before and I added some so that I could fill all of my space up. I We also had to decide how we were going to draw all of our symbols on the ground. We wanted to be able to tell that we all had different ideas so we divided our sq...

In this project we learned even more about using the six shots while filming. This video could be longer than the video we filmed for the creating a document, so we had a lot more time. Since we had more time we had to switch our angle of the shot more often. Because if you watched a video and all the shots were taken at the same angle it would be boring. In this project we had our character going all over the place where in the other one our character was only in the library. So we had more action in this video which was much more fun to film! When me and my other three partners were brainstorming and sketching for this project we had so many ideas that it was hard to narrow it down to one big idea! The first and biggest thing we had to figure out was where our characters would end up. Because we didn't want to be on one side of the school then have to find enough stopping points to get to the other side of the school and still have the viewer know where we were going.  We edi...

typography anatomy

Typography project   The project We did this project so we could learn about different fonts and how there are heights for certain parts of the letters. Also that parts of the letters are called something specific, they don't just have the basic shape that you think they would have. We also learned how to make dashed lines and arrows on illustrator so that you could really see what part was where. What we learned We learned a lot during this project, most of it I stated in the paragraph above. But these specific things I really had to focus on because they were things that were apart of my name. These things are a bowl, crossbar, aperture, descender, shoulder, diagonal stroke, counter, finial, stem, and a serif. These were all things used to identify parts of my letters when using this font. We also learned about  the sizing of letters like uppercase, x height, and the base line. Those are three heights that my letters hit. How was the project  The project ove...
