Find 1 image that inspired you or gave you an idea for the "Somewhere" project:

I think this is a really cool photo because you can do a lot with the background of it. Whether it's changing colors or making it a whole other structure, I would definitely photoshop myself onto it.

Find 1 image you think it would be really hard to photoshop yourself in to:

This photo I especially thought it would be hard to photoshop myself into because of how complex the image is. Theres a lot of motion blur going on, lots of different colors and reflections, it would be a hard task to accomplish.

All of his posts were very funny and creative but I laughed the most at this one 😂

This illusion is cool because some of the other ones were able to be done without software, whereas this one clearly uses photoshop. It would be very cool to work on a project like this one.

BW to Color

Artist Statement: For my black and white to color photoshop project I decided to use three different types of color schemes; Square, Triad, and Analogous. I really like pinkish-purple colors and I think my favorite scheme in this project was probably the analogous. I was able to utilize the quick selection tool to outline multiple sections of my image including my shirt, shorts, hair, the wall behind me, the reflection on the water, the lights, and as an added bonus, the moon! Having a white shirt on definitely helped the colors on my shirt pop a bit more than the rest of the image since it was taken at night time. Overall, I really enjoyed working on this project and I think photoshop is my new favorite software that we've used so far!

Calligram Project

Calligram Project For my calligram project I decided to base it off of something I would say represents me, which is music. What you are seeing above is a Treble Clef with music bars flowing off of it, representing what sheet music would look like. I was able to morph the words in a way to look like they're flowing off of the Treble Clef using a tool called the puppet warp. Placing pins on each word using this tool allowed me to morph the words in the way I wanted them to. While I did use the envelope distort tool for some parts, the puppet warp tool was much easier to get the desired shape I wanted. I decided to go with a variety of different fonts in this piece to add an element of creativity, not keeping everything the same. Each different font represents a different sentence, making for easier readability. While things do tend to get a bit trickier to read in the Treble Clef area, using the different fonts helps distinguish between sentence. Inspiration My Letter

Business Cards

Artists Statement: This was my very first time working in InDesign and while its similar to other softwares we've used in class this semester, it also has its differences. My three logos features various different color schemes which I was able to coordinate with the business card colors. I feel as though business cards should be kept simple and not overcomplicated to keep focus on the logo and personal business information. On the front of the cards I included my logo and on some I included elements like diamonds and circles. On the back of the cards I included the same elements as the front but added in my business information. If I was to choose one card to actually use for a business I would choose the black and red color scheme because I think those colors go great together and looks the cleanest. Overall this project was super fun and allowed me to be very creative with my card designs!
