Pre-Somewhere

 

    I personally think that this photo would be the most difficult due to how close they are to each other in the photo. There was no room for error when it came to the edges between them and I think that he did a great job making the photo completely seamless. A few things that would make this specific image difficult to photoshop would be getting the exact skin tones and working very carefully with the feathers. 
    This photo really inspired me because it brought to my mind that I can also photoshop myself onto a cover. I think this is a really cool concept because I can live my dreams and make them a reality on my own with some simple photoshopping. I don't specifically think that I'll so a magazine cover, but maybe a television show cover instead. 
    This photoshop project made me laugh because the artist essentially did the opposite of what was asked. Originally he wanted pants photoshopped on just him. Though the outcome was the two gentlemen with pants on ended up getting short shorts also. This is funny to me because, in my opinion, the photo isn't that good to start with and to be honest photoshopping pants onto him wouldn't have made it any better. But, instead of photoshopping the other gentlemen with short shorts make the picture funny and completely new. 

I thought this illusion was very cool and an idea that a lot of brands probably do that we do not realize. Essentially the company is trying to make the shrimp look steamy and delicious all while in reality, they placed a literal steamer where it can not be seen by the camera. This would be cool to do in photoshop with different illusions and brush types.

Business Cards

Image
    These are the three business cards that I worked on for this assignment. This was very tricky for me and did not come easy. I spent hours watching tutorial videos and playing around with trial and error. When I finally got the hang of it, I began using layers. A few that I found myself using more were header, subheader, logo, and background. I really liked how I got to tune my inner creativity and use colors that speak to me. I also played around with different gradients and shades. The last thing that I found that makes my business cards stand out is the symbols I used in front of all of my information on the back.

Autoscopy

     Above is my autoscopy project that I worked on over Thanksgiving break. This is by far my favorite end result that I've completed this semester. I really enjoyed getting to take aspects from outer space and correlating them with a picture I took on Halloween in my fembot costume. To gain inspiration I surfed a lot of different websites like Google Images, Pinterest, and a variety of websites that were specifically recommended for this assignment.      I picked four images that I wanted to use; a spacecraft, cluster of aliens, galaxy background, and shooting stars. Going in I knew that I wanted the whole picture to have the same overall theme and ended up choosing space galaxy. The first thing I did when I started editing the original image was the switch from normal to exclusion to give the galaxy vibe.  With each image, I made sure they each had their own layer so I could continue switching from normal to whatever option meshed the best. Once all my images were locked in, I a

Somewhere

       When I found out that we were going to be working in Photoshop I was very excited for this specific reason. I follow people on social media that are famous for editing themselves into famous celebrities' photos and I wanted to know the ins and outs of doing just that. Growing up my favorite movie series was Mean Girls, I would pretend to play the roles of the characters in my everyday life. This project was the closest opportunity for me to be a part of the movie series.      I began with adding the original cover photo from Mean Girls 2 into Photoshop, then started using multiple different layers. Some of the layers I used helped me fix the saturation, hues, and opacities to make myself appear like I was there during the actual photoshoot. As you can tell in my photoshoot picture (last image), the bottom half of my legs is cut off. For this project, I knew I wanted my knees down in the picture because that's how the three characters in the back appear. To do so, I found
