Other cool links

This is a sidenote, but I was just browsing some of my classmates' blogs to see what they have been doing, and some of them have some sweet photoshop skills! I think my favorite was Holly's neon picture. So cool! Check it out on my links to the right --->

More Photoshop Workings!

For this assignment, we were instructed to take two pictures that we have shot recently and then do four edits to them using the tools we have learned in Photoshop. I'm just remotely accessing CS1 on my home PC in Idaho because I don't have the software on my macbook at school, so bear with me if the commands are a little different than CS3's.

Original Shot #1

With Edits:
- Eraser tool and copy of background layer to bring color through on milkshake cup
- Magic Wand tool to highlight entire balloon cluster in one click, erased that part of the layer to show color on bottom layer
- Cropped picture
- Used Clone Stamp tool to get rid of the ugly windows and blinds, replaced with continuous wall
















Original #2
(Actually, I edited the red eye out by habit and replaced the old version, not remembering I would need the red-eye version, so this is the original, plus one edit.)






























With Edits:
- Eliminated red-eye, as stated in previous paragraph
- Cropped photo
- Added text
- Using Hue/Saturation tool, changed color of bowl from red to brown so that it isn't so distracting when one first sees the picture.


Hope this shows a little bit of what photoshop can do!

Photoshop HW

Here is our photoshop homework, as requested.


Pop can silver --> another color (green, in this case)
Plus we were supposed to add our name on it somewhere


















City with rainbow in background, add shamrock, make shamrock opaque.
I also turned it upside down and rotated it to give it the full "ghost" effect that Shane asked for. I think that it makes it look a little more spooky/haunting.



















This is me in living color. Yes, half of me looks like it is still in black and white, but that is because I am wearing a gray sweatshirt and the girl's black sleeve is covering my other leg. Go figure.













That is all!

Project

Our group presents our project on Ken Garff tomorrow! 

I hope we did everything right. Everyone did their part, and I think the finished project is going to show off our hard work. My group was solid... not to mention cool! I'd work with them for the rest of my life if I could.
