Photoshop Tutorials

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D57I6fJ9MsY

This first video is pretty simple as it is only six minutes and 27 seconds long. The creator just goes over the basic tools that one will need to know in order to first get started in Photoshop. She first goes over the move tool and shows us how to use it and what it is used for. I think this is definitely the easiest tool to use on Photoshop. the most interesting tool she goes over will have to be the marquie tool which allows you to select a part of an image and delete that specific area of it. This tool is either a rectangular one or an elliptical one. The elliptical tool allows you to create your own shape around what you wish to delete. The creator is very detailed with the basic tools and shows us how to easily use them in a short amount of time.

This video is a lot longer than the first video. In this one the creator goes over every tool in Photoshop. From what he is showing I think a lot of the tools will be easy to use especially the spot healing tool. I think is really cool and will come in handy when there is a part of an image that I rather not have. This video is definitely interesting as there are a lot of cool tools that he shows us. The creator also gives us great examples and goes in depth about how to use each tool.

This video is a pretty good length and goes in to a lot more detail. This video seems to be more for someone who has never used Adobe platforms as he goes over basic functions like the zooming in and out of a canvas. The first tool in photoshop that he goes over is the paintbrush tool and he also goes over what each button around Photoshop does. This video talks about more than just tools as well so it really is a good video for beginners as it goes throughout the whole program. This video explains as much as the other videos but in a different amount of time. This video is definitely something a beginner should watch.

Somewhere Project

Image
  For the Somewhere project, I decided to choose a scene from the movie Baby Driver. This scene is very iconic as is one of the best movies scenes that does not have dialogue yet tells a whole story. I decided to use this specific photo from the scene as there was space for me to put a photo of myself in without disrupting it a whole lot. When taking the photo of myself I tried to make it so I wasn't taking away too much from the scene.  Overall this project was difficult as it took me a while to get the cut out perfect and to make sure that the photo was positioned correctly to make it really look like I was in the scene. It also took some time to get the coloring to be similar to the original photo. This project took me around 2 hours to create as there were some areas where it got tricky. I however really like how it turned out.

Business Cards

Image
  I really enjoyed this project as business cards are very important when you want to make connections with people. The first business card I made was the black one with the yellow logo. For the front of the card I decided to put the logo on the left and my name, major, and contact information on the right. For the back of it I just put the logo in the middle. I chose to make the background of the card black to make the yellow stand out. When creating the text I decided to put my name in white to make it stand out and then did the rest of the text in yellow so that it went with the color of the logo.  The second card I did was the pink one. For this one, I chose a dark pink background so that it went with the pink logo yet let the logo stand out more. I did the same layout as the first card yet this time only put the ad/pr part in a lighter pink to match the logo. I also used a different font to make it a little more mature and fancier.  The last business card I made was the blue one.

Autoscopy

Image
  For this autoscopy project, I decided to have a space and flower theme. For the background, I took a photo of Outerspace off the internet and used the magnetic lasso tool, mask layer, and brush tool to make it look like I am in Outerspace. I also used another space like photo on my skin. When putting the space photo over my skin I decreased the opacity so that you could still see my face. I used the same tools as I did for the background to fit the photo on my face and neck. To add to the Outerspace theme I also added a moon, Saturn, and another planet. This added color to the photo rather than just having black and purple. When adding the Saturn I also changed the hue and saturation to make it blue rather than the original color of brown. I added the flowers to make the photo creative and different. I decided to do purple flowers because I felt like that went with the Outerspace photos.
