Cracked Chick

Owl with metal parts


I think this project turned out pretty well. It wasn't that hard to do the project but it was gard to find the pics to use. I didn't really learn anything knew but I applied what I knew.

this what I might use for the brush portrait thing

Brush Tutorial


I downloaded a brush stroke and used that to make this.  This was easy because it was simple to make with th brush strokes and I didn't want it to complicated.  I would like to see what brush I could make in the future.

Monster Project


I thought that the labels for the box turned out pretty well. I didn't really learn anything new from this project. I applied what i learned from previous projects to this one. Nothing was really difficult to do in this one. It just took me a while to make the monster but after that it was very easy to do the rest. If I were t odo this again, I would try to make the monster look better than the one before.

Typography


I thought this was very annoying to form text into a picture as it was a tedious task to do so. I learned how to form pics with text. If I were to do this again I would try to find an easier way of doing this because it took me a long time to do this. I thought this was okay but I could have made the face look better but I'm fine with how it turned out.

Magazine Cover

I thought that thiswas really successful.  It's simple looking but looks good.  I ca't think of anything that didn't work for this project.  If I were to do this again, I would do a cover on a different subjuct to see if I could make abeter magazine cover.  Nothing was too dificult in this project and everything went well.  I didn't realy learn anything new just used what I learned from previous units.

Bike Article

I thought it turned out okay but it could have been better.  Not everything I did really worked at first.  It took a while to turned the text into circles.  That was the only part of the project that took me a long time to do.  From this piece, I learned how to type text into photoshop, alter text and how to rasterize it.

Cupmation Project

This our group's cupmation.  It turned out really good.  I added the sounds of bells to the clip.  Nothing went wrong while taking pictures for the cupmation it just took a whole class period to do.  Putting the cups was the only part that was kind of hard.  Everything else went well.

Noel Retouch

I thought that this turned out pretty well.  This was pretty successful and looks pretty real. Everything worked out pretty well in this one and i didn't really have any problems.  I didn't learn anything new from this as I used what I learned from the previous retouchings.

Aisha

I'm pretty happy with this photo retouching because at the beginning there were all these marker marks on the picture and it was really difficult to remove them.  I did that but it was really time consuming.  If i were to do this again, I would want to do it in a less time consuming manner. I learned more techniques to retouch a photo.

Photo Retouch

   
I thought this turned out better than the first photo retouch I did. This one looks less blurry and I used a different method of making her skin smooth in this one.  There really weren't anything that difficult in retouching this photo.  It just took a little time to do it.  I learned another way to retouch a photo.     

Retouching Photos

This wasn't that good because I made her face a little too blurry but it wasn't bad for my first try at retouching photos.  Retouching the photo was simple and I didn't run into any difficulties. If I could do his again I would make her face a little less blurry. I learned how to retouch pics.

Layer wall

This One was pretty simple. I just made it look like a piece was in and one was popping out.  There wasn't anything that difficult in this project.

What came out of the lighter

I like how this one turned out.  I managed to make a fire extinguisher lighter to look like something is coming out of it.  The hard part of this project was cutting out the mentos explosion out of the original picture.  If i were to do this project again, Iwould try to do something different. I might try to finish the other picture I was doing.  It was the waterfall one with paint splats going down.  I learned how to make this picture.

Durian

This one was a pretty easy to do.  This was pretty successful as there wasn't anything complicated in this project.  I learned how to make an object have a reflection on photoshop.

Bucket Wheel

In this project, I made a color wheel out of a picture of a bucket with a stick and a pipeline. It turned out pretty well. Using hue/saturation in the pictures worked pretty well in coloring the items. Some ways of coloring the items didn't look good.  If I were to do this again, I would use different pics and see if I could make it better.  The most difficult part of this project selecting the bucket and not the surroundings. I got to explore photoshop and learned more ways of using the software.

Kiwi Eyes

I really the this turned out pretty well. I like how this one turned out. The head of the tarsier actually looks like its part of the kiwi bird's body. Without changing the hue/saturation of the two images, the color of the animals were different. The hard part of doing this picture was trying top match the color of the two animals and every thing else was fine. If I were to do this again I would try to think of an even better combonation. I learned how to blend two animal pic to make a new combined animal.

Three Clones

I thought this turned pretty good and it looks like im at three place at once. I was succesful at overlapping the pictures but if I did this over I would try to think of a better pose.  Overlapping the pictures wasn't hard but overlapping myself was a bit hard. I learned how to make myself look like im in multiple place at the same time.

Splatkapi

This piece was okay overall but I feel that it could have been better. I was peretty successful with puting the jackson polock onto the animal's head but I couldn't make  it work on the body. One thing I would do better if I did this again is putting the color splats better. The most difficult part was making it look right. I learned how to use thethe warp tool.

Frog Shaped Tongue

In this second project, i made a frog tongue. I thought this project turned out pretty well. It turned out better than the last one. Nothing was really hard to do in this project.  If I were to do this project again I would do a different animal for the tongue. I learned how to use more editing tools.

The pancake is angry

I thought this was okay but it could have been better in my opinion.  I was pretty successful in getting the pancake to look like it was angry. Warping the pancake to a mouth worked for me but making the mouth fit took awhile. A change that I would try to make the mouth look better. I would also try to this type of thing to a durian fruit.
There wasn't really anything hard about doing this prioject.  I learned more about photoshop doing this.
