"Kaleidoscope Tutorial Project"

This is a before and after of my Kaleidoscope Project. The first image is an image of some dumplings I found because I was hungry a the time. The 2nd image is the kaleidoscope I was able to make using a the tutorial on YouTube. I found the video hard to follow because it went fast, almost too fast. I found myself always having to pause the video. It was very informative, and overall and very fun project.

"Poster"


This is a poster Andrew and I made for the O'Leary Music Festival happening in 2015. We took an image of a skyscraper for the background, and added information about the event in an orange circle in the middle of the poster. We made the orange circle see through, and have a border, so you could still see some of the skyscraper. The other poster we worked on is on Andrew's blog. Go check it out!

"Joiner Collage"


The goal of this project was to make each little box look like an individual picture. I made 9 different pictures of one album cover of MC Shan's I Pioneered this. I the decided to off set the images so it did not look like it was just a grid. I moved the top row a little to the left, the middle row a little to the right, and the bottom row a little to the left also. 

"Top Things About Photoshop CS6"


 

The first image is the original I took of the WAHS Tennis Courts. The first thing I did to the image was use the new content-awareness tool and got rid of the shadow in the foreground. The second thing I did was used the new crop tool to get rid of some of the sky in the background. Lastly, I messed around with the Iris blur tool which was not the easiest tool to use. I couldn't get the blur to to show here I wanted to but I tried to blur everything around the net.

"The Power of One; 6 Images"







These are a series of 6 photos that I got from the internet and then I edited them. These are all themed with black and white because they are based on the movie "The Power of One" which portrays racism in South America during the apartheid. I desaturated all of them and used similar filters. I used the art history brush to sharpen some parts in some images and leave other parts of the image untouched. The movie was a great movie and these pictures somewhat portray how the movie influenced me.

"The Power of One; One Word"

This is a project based on the movie "The Power of One". This movie takes place in South Africa during the apartheid times. There is a lot of racism towards blacks and they are treated unjustly.  So in this project I took the South African flag and desaturated it just a little bit so it was a duller color. I then created a border around the flag. After that I used the text and typed the word Revolution. In the movie you can feel that their is a change or revolution about to happen, that is why I chose this word. 

"The Power of One; Poster"



This is a project based on the movie "The Power of One". The movie takes place in Africa so I decided to find an image of your stereotypical african sunset tree. I then found an image of the character Peekay and his mentor from the movie and used the effect overlay on it so it blended in with the sunset. I then added a simple text of the movie title under the tree.
