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 😂

Portfolio

Artists Statement: After becoming more comfortable working with InDesign, I was able to create a personalized portfolio containing all of the projects we've done throughout the semester. For reference, the first slide is above and the last slide ends with the business cards. This portfolio encompasses all of the hard work I've put in throughout this semester, and I couldn't be more proud of myself. Looking back on it, I didn't even realize how many projects we've actually done! I used a green color scheme, featuring a light green as the background with dark green, grey, and black as alternate colors. I can't wait to show this portfolio to my friends and family to show off all of my projects!

Somewhere

Final Image: Artists Statement: One of my favorite movies is Superbad which is the one I used for this project. I found this great picture of the three main characters and saw a perfect spot that I could Photoshop myself into. I was able to mask my original image, then mask the two guys in front of me. Also, I added a color filter to myself to match the environment. Specifically, I used a warming filter and fine tuned it to match the best. It took some trial and error to get myself to blend into the original image the best, but I feel as though the final product turned out great. In my original image I had my arm extended in hopes to have my arm around the guy wearing yellow but I unfortunately wasn't able to figure out how to do it. A little easter egg I added in my image is that I put my logo brush on the back of the computer to blend in with the other stickers. Overall this was my favorite project so far and can't wait to Photoshop myself into other pictures! Me: ...

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!
