Photoshop Challenge



This week in e-comm we were given a challenge. After watching photoshop tutorials and learning about all the essential photoshop tools we put are new skills to the test. We were given a few guidelines but other than that we were set loose and told to use are creative juices.

First we were given a portrait of a man and a few nature photos the we could use if we wanted to. I was inspired but the nature pictures so I decided to use the provided pictures. I started with the jacket and changed the jacket to a picture of the side of a mountain zooming in on the rocks. 

Next I added a picture of tree roots to he under shirt, but after applying that mask I thought it looked a little clustered so decided to just make the shirt a color. After making the short purple it didn't match the jacket so I decided to color balance everything to have a purple theme. 




After changing the shirt to just be a plain color I decided that maybe the tree roost would loo cool on the eyebrows. it was very hard to make a mask that small and precise but I think it ended up really cool. Then just to finish out the theme I used the same color balance to make the hair purple. 

I really ended up liking my final product but it is not what I we expecting it to look like. When I started I did not really have a vision I just started editing and changed things to make them fit. Overall I think this project was very fun and challenging and I hope o do something similar again soon.

Music Video

• Embed your work at the top of your blog post under your Title. These past few weeks in video we worked on recreating the Bet on It video from High School Musical 2. As a group we thought this video would be really fun to create and challenging in many ways. We also had a good idea for locations already so we thought it would be do able. We started with pre-production by dividing up the work to be efficient and effective because we wanted to have as much times as we could to film. We also decided Alex was going to act, Josh and Drew we going to mainly do the camera, and Maleah and I were going to help with choreography and making sure the video and our filming was the same and there wasn't anything weird going on. After we had footage we all edited together since we couldn't have everyone at the same time, so we had one person run editing and everyone else helping and we rotated the main editor. As a group I think we worked together really well and dealt with the issues w...

typography project

These past few weeks in graphic design we have been working on quotes in Adobe Illustrator for our typography project. We started by researching to find quotes the we liked and related to our lives. we only had to find four but at first I didn't love any of my quotes so I found about 10 and then picked my favorite four from that. then we looked at  daft.com and found fonts that we wanted to download to use in our quotes. the part was hard because a lot of the fonts I liked were similar. After the research process we started actually creating our quotes on illustrator.  First I started by typing out all my quotes in the original font. After that I organized each word and change the font then I added black and white graphics. After turning this in I made all the quotes in color. I learned a lot through this about balance in each background and about the effect a b...

semester reflection

This semester in video we did four major projects. My two favorite projects were the procedure video and ONW now story. Since the procedure video was our first video of the semester it took a little longer, we had about two weeks to do this video. As a group we faced many challenges with the new cameras and refreshing our editing abilities but after getting started our group did well. We were given a lot of feedback on our storyboarding and timing so we did the storyboard again with more details to have a better plan. Throughout this project I learned a lot about the new cameras and set expectations for video this year. With the cheer project we only had a week. With this project we did not face a lot of challenges our group picked a continent topic and used our time well. The only challenge was writing the voice over but we all worked together and finally got it done. In this project I learned a lot about team work and time management. Overall I think my videos turned out good some w...
