I like Miranda’s project 7 Self Evaluation because of the work she did in photoshop. It looks very professional and not overdone.

I liked Michelle’s project in photoshop of the rose. It was cool how she made the rose pink and the rest of the picture black and white.

In my 6th project I made Dwight Howard look like he was jumping from earth into space to dunk a basketball.

What I learned: How to use the pen tool to cut things out more precisely. This makes it so it’s not as pixelated.

What I did: Made Dwight dunk a ball in outer space.

What I had to overcome: Cutting Dwight out perfectly so the edges don’t look all jagged and pixelated.

My next project will be in photoshop.

So far in my 6th project, I have edited out the audience from the background of the picture. I have begun to put the stars as the background for the outer space kind of look. I will be done in about another day or so.

In my 6th project, I will be working in photoshop yet again since it’s the best program.

I will be editing a photo of Dwight Howard (below) and make it look like he is dunking a basketball in space.

I will learn how to cut out the background and make Dwight Howard smooth rather than pixelated.

Timeline:

Day1:Find the dwight picture

Day2:Find a pic of outer space

Day3: Find a pic of earth

Day 4:Put them all together so that it looks good

Day5:Upload to my blog!

I got this idea from these website:

In my latest project, I decided to add more detail to my original boxing ad. This time, with the help of Mr. LeDuc, I saturated my face to match the body that my head is on. This way, I looked a tanner.

What I did: Made my boxing ad better than the first time I made it.

What I learned: How to add a saturation to someone skin so it matches the body you exchange it with.

What I had to overcome: I had A LOT of troubles with organizing the layers, naming them, and finally editing them. I worked this out by looking at a website that explains all the basics of photoshop.

My next project will be on photoshop.
