Project 2: Collage, Silhouette, and Lettering

A few weeks ago, I did a project on an application called "CS6 Photoshop". The first step of this project was to select a famous person, could be an athlete, musician, actor, etc. We had to select a photo of that person, that included their face. Then we had to select 10 different pictures that represent that person. In this case, I did the singer, Michael Jackson. Then we had to open photoshop, create a new file, and place the image of the person you're doing the project on, with their face. Then we had to select the magic wand tool, and cut out their face from the background, create a new layer via copy, and once you've done that, make sure the new layer is an outline of the person's face with nothing inside. Then you select those 10 different photos, and place them next to each other, within the outline of the face. Finally you, go back to the first outline cutout of the picture, and select the type tool. Once you've done that, you have to type something around the outline, like a quote(like 4-8 words). So once to have typed your quote, you copy and paste it more times, so it surrounds the whole outline of the picture, and you change the background color to whatever you want, but make sure you're able to see the quote you typed. The objective of this lab was to learn how to collage images together, to create something, and to learn how to silhouette and lettering.

Project 1: Andy Warhol

Image
In class, a few days ago, I did a project. It was based on making a portrait of yourself. The portraits was inspired by a man named, Andy Warhol. I did this project on an application called "CS6 Photoshop". The first step in this lab was to take an image of yourself, and to make it, it's own layer. Then I duplicated the layer, and deleted the original layer. Then with the new later, I had to duplicate it again, and put a new "color fill" layer, which was an all white layer color for the background. Then I went back to the first layer, that I duplicated and, I had to use the magnetic lasso tool, and only select my body. After that, when you have selected our body, you make it a new layer via copy. Then we made the image/new layer black and white, and changed the filter.  Then I, changed the image size. After that, I made it a whole new layer again, and transformed the photo to one-forth of the page, and duplicated the new image 3 more times, and put each image ...

Window vs. Mac

Window vs. Mac. If you had to choose on to have what would you pick. It can be based upon software, looks, etc. I would choose Mac. I think that it's better. One reason why I would choose Mac is because, it does't get any viruses, while windows computers and laptops can get viruses. Another reason I would choose mac is because, in my opinion I think the Macs looks futuristic and better, than Windows look. Another reason why I would choose the Mac over Windows is because, Mac has better software and has more application that can teach people things. For example, Mac is better for people who want to create things like websites, music, games, etc. This is why I would choose Mac over Windows

THE MET

Image
Friday, February 17, 2017 my web design class and I went on a trip to the metropolitan museum of art. We saw a lot of historic art and learned a lot about each piece of art the museum had. For example, some of the historic art that we saw at the museum was, a blue wall which was a Islamic wall, facing towards Mecca, which is the direction they pray to Allah. Another historic art we saw on the trip was, 3 panels connected to each other, and each panel had 6 sides, Each panel had a different flow of a waterfall. One panel had a lot of water, and some panels had very little water. We learned  little bit about each art we saw, and we learned some of the messages behind each piece of art. For example, the waterfall panel's message was about, things being in a different form/way, they're still the same. Because for the waterfall, even though each waterfall had a different flow, it still ended up as the end of the waterfall. These different pieces of art that we saw, applied to web ...
