Identity Poster

this assignment was done in order to decide who would represent the school in the Graphic Design Competition, and this year the theme for the advertising poster event was identity. so over spring break I had to come up with an idea for the poster that had the identity theme. my idea since the very beginning was to have two sides of the poster: on one side it was either a drawing or picture of a person and on the other side it was to be what identity was or how it was viewed. this idea actually ended up being my final poster; how the final product was created was by first taking the famous Renaissance Man drawn from Leonardo Da Vinci and creating a white mask over one side of the drawing. it starts off completely white so in order to show detail I traced the body lines that were on the Da Vinci original drawing so it would look much more like a human.  on the other side I placed an image portraying binary code inside the drawing. on the other side I placed an image portraying binary code inside the drawing, so it would look like the identify of a human is similar to that of code. then to create an opposing effect on the poster I made the background color for the side with the white mask black and the side with the code was white. the final piece that I added was a line of text saying "Who am I?"

Lab2: Editing Lancelot

Image
This is the second lab of this year and what we did was edit a picture of Lancelot using different adjustments. the main objective of this lab fro me was to experiment adjusting images in various ways so each one would have something unique about it but this lab has had something else in mind which was to teach us a new way to select an image which was to use edit in quick mask mode. the procedure of this lab was to first select Lancelot; however, we did not use edit in quick mask mode at first, we used whatever tool we wanted. the whole class soon realized how difficult it was to select Lancelot. then we learned about the magic of using edit in quick mask mode because we could then select most of Lancelot with ease without having the blue background ruining the image. After making sure that Lancelot was selected to the best of our abilities I had to make at least eight new layers using layer via copy but these Lancelots had to be smaller than the original Lancelot. this was done by sc

Project 3: Restore Old Photograph

Image
this project was the process of restoring a damaged photo only using the editing tools. the objective of this lab was to restore the photo to how it would be before all the damage; all the editing was to be done to the " best " of our ability. the way i completed the project was by using the various editing tools in photoshop such as the patch tool, spot healing brush tool, healing brush tool, content awareness tool, and clone stamp tool. By using these tools in various ways you can get rid of most of the damage done over time. The tool i used the most was the healing brush tool and the spot healing brush tool because in my opinion worked the most efficient. Of course it wasn't perfect, if used too much it would just blur the image so it had to be used with caution. To me this was a very useful even though it is very difficult to become acustom to. It is also relevant in Web Design because in nature or anything there will be a flaw and so to be able to correct the flaw i
