David Hockney syle!

David Hockney's style is basically getting a whole bunch of pictures of one thing and compiling them together to make a bigger picture. We did this digitally with a picture of my cute and adorable little dog :)

Find the differences!

Everyone went downtown while I stayed in English, so they were doing a scavenger hunt. So I had to use my own personal images. And the project was doing sort of "Where's waldo" thing, but it's just with differences... Have fun!

Some hands.

The effects used were to make the image warm, cool & emerald (with a gradient background). It gives the image a more difference effect and lets it stand out more.

(Warm)

(Emerald & Gradient)

Photo Aging

When making a modern picture look vintage, you shouldn't pick a picture that has something modern (i.e. computer, ipod, technology) that is obviusly not old. The brush that I used for this was a coffee stain brush.

Collage

I replicated the work of Robert Mars. He basically made his collages have a vintage touch and the backround seemed like a lot of pieces of papers.

--Glowing Lights 2--

Photoshop:)

Pen tool, star brush tool (changed brush options), text to tool, outer glow, scattering, quick selection, and free transform.

-Glowing Lights-

Main tool used during this project was the pen tool. I made a figure 8 and duplicated the layer numerous amounts of time. Other tools I used afterward were brush tool, free transform, marquee tool, the twirl filter, gaussian blur, and gradient tool.

Typography

Yes, I know this isn't the best work I've done, but it's what I came up with at the moment.

Typography is using text and arranging it properly to make a design. I made a star and just used the letters of my name to make my name.

Picture Sharpening!!

Spooky Picture

"Glowing Monster Eyes At Night"
It actually was kind of hard to follow the tutorial for this one, but that was mostly because when you click on the link for the tutorial, it shows you a tutorial for a totally different thing. So I had to basically make it my own.

Tools Review

photoshop:)
Tools Used:
Quick Selection: Selects quickly and in big amounts (kind of, can't explain)
Magnetic Lasso: Used it to magnetically select similar pixels
Refine Edge: Allows it to blend in more
Layer Mask: hides parts of the picture
Quick Mask: Quick selects by applying a mask

Midterm Exam =/

For our midterm exam we needed to take two guys out of one picture, place them onto this one "realistically", add a fire hydrant, and remove evidence of a date that was printed on the picture.

Pop Artt Exampless

Pop Art is a visual art movement that uses elements of pop culture and uses techniques from commercial art and advertising. You're basically transforming a picture you took into a cartoon.

Rule of 3rd's Exampless

The Rule of Thirds is visually seeing that the picture is divided into thirds horizontally and vertically, so that you have nine equal parts. This helps lead the eye into a specific point.
