Photoshop Homework #1

    There are a lot of edits in this video I am not entirely sure how to do.  It really comes down to the memory of tools and those tools' abilities.  I am interested in exploring what the masks can do so I can create cool art pieces on my own.  Really I want to know how to use all the tools.

    This is so interesting in the fact that creating an effect like this only has to take approximately 74 seconds to create.  I don't think these tools are extremely difficult to use, that's why a lot of people prefer adobe products, but I do feel that remembering what tools are the best is going to be difficult, as it's not always easy to remember which tool does what.

    I don't think the tools are very hard to use in the video, it's just important that I remember what each tool is capable of doing.  I find it interesting how effects like the one created in this video are so easy to create.  Originally I thought that making photos like these require a lot of steps but really it doesn't.  That's interesting to me and I look forward to using the tools in the future to create interesting images of my own.

I really tried to get the lighting to match up and I wanted to convey a tired and exhausted look with my pose.  I feel that I was able to get that, but could’ve maybe taken a few more sample pictures.  Overall I am pleased with how it turned out.  I played with the lighting for a while and I feel that that is the best I could get.

Business Cards

  Artist Statement: I didn’t want to go extremely detailed with my business card designs, but I knew there was a limit to how simple I could make them.  I decided to try and stick to a blue color palette for my business cards as I didn’t want to try and commit too hard to both colors that I featured in my logos, blue and green.  I feel like the constant clashing of colors would’ve hurt the designs more than helped them.  I needed to commit to one and I chose blue because of how much better I imagined it would look, although I did make green the main focus of the second business card.  The green, in my opinion, would’ve looked silly.  I like all the designs with my favorite either being one of the first two designs.  I don’t think I would ever actually produce a business card that looks similar to card design #3.  If I absolutely had to pick a card design, I would probably choose the first one.

I like seeing funny gifs online, especially gifs that have a funny twist to them.  I believe I have created a perfect example of this.  I didn’t want to make a gif that was based on another image.  I wanted to make my own meme.  Funny gifs are one of the most iconic parts of the internet and the randomness of this gif is something I really wanted to emphasize.  The colors are weird, the character is weird, and the whole piece is weird.  For those reasons, I like what I have created.
