Pop Art Puppy :)

Change My Look - Ashley:)

We also had to change the look of someone else, so I did Ashley. Her haircolor was changed to a more brunnette color, and again the eye color wasn't able to change because her eyes were dark. I made her a giant in NYC with her new best friend, King Kong, and people attempting to attack her from the helicopter.

Photoshop:)
*Same tools used as my previous post:)*

Change My Look - Me:)

For the Change My Look project we needed to change our hair color, eye color, and add two extra items. Hair color was changed to purple and I couldn't change my eye color because my eyes are too dark.

Photoshop:)

Tools used for the hair were Quick Mask, Brush Tool, blending options, Eliptical Marquee Tool, Polygonal Lasso Tool, Magic Wand Tool, and Copy & Paste.

Zac Efron's original hair is dark with blonde-ish highlights, so I changed it to more red color, as well as his eye color that was originally blue.

Change in Appearance

Original hair color of this odd looking person was blonde, but our assignment was to change it, so I changed to purple.

Photoshop:)

Tools used were the Quick Mask, Brush Tool, Blending options was changed to Soft Light, and I used Copy & Paste.

The original eye color was more of green-ish, so we had to change the eye color to whatever we wanted to, so I chosed this blue-ish color.

Photoshop:)

Tools used were the Eliptical Marquee Tool, Polygonal Lasso Tool, changed the Color Balance and set the blending option as Overlay.

Layer Masks

So, in Photoshop, we learned how to use layers and had to use mainly all layers and masks, so we needed a landscape, a sky, and a tree. We also needed three more images which I decided to put in a tractor and two cows:)

Photoshop:)

Layer masks, obviously.

Montage

We were given different pictures and put them all together into a montage in Photoshop. Then we had to mess arange them in a reasonable way and add layer styles that included a drop shadow, bevel and emboss.

The *Magic* Wand

The Magic Wand tool in Photoshop selects by color, so we had to take the orange shapes on the left and place them on the right. Then we had to transform them and put them all together to make some sort of shape.

Photoshop:)

The only tool that I obviously used was the Magic Wand Tool.

Dolphant :)

Had to make an animal, that obviously doesn't exist. Mine was a combination of a chicken, dolphin, duck, elephant, ostrich, and zebra. It was also wearing a top hat to go along with his personality. He's swimming out in the sea :)

Tools used were the Quick Selection, Magnetic Lasso, and the Clone Tool.
