Self Logo/Tag Brush- Photoshop

 

    I really liked working on this in class and getting to learn the ins and outs of Photoshop together. I was a little nervous going into class because I've never had the opportunity to work in this specific program, so I had a little fear of quickly falling behind. Once we began, right off the bat I knew that I was going to love using Photoshop. 
    It's a neat idea to be able to use past work that was created in a different program. I never would've thought to add on to my logo, but thanks to Photoshop I was able to. When working on this project I added my original logo (bottom art) into Photoshop and then continued to add layers and play with the opacity of different scratches, negatives, etc. Wrapping the project up, I was able to create the final tag (top art.)  I was excited to hear that from now on, on all of our future artwork we will be applying the tag to the corner. This is a really neat idea and will make all of the art even more special to the creator/artist.

Business Cards

    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
