Photoshop Final Project 4/4

This is part 4 of 4 of my Photoshop final project. Here I used my own two images. One is of the man with the camera and the other is of the tan wall behind him (that sort of overpowers the brick wall from the first photo). There is also an image of stacked newspaper from Google at the bottom of the image in the center (on the recycling bin). I wanted to demonstrate my understanding of layer masks, text, color, and image size in Photoshop.

Photoshop Final Project 3/4

This is part 3 of 4 of my Photoshop final project. Here I used my own two images. One is a close up of the front of a vintage Ford truck and one is a close up of construction rods. I wanted to demonstrate my understanding of layer masks, text, color, and image size in Photoshop.

Photoshop Final Project 2/4

This is part 2 of 4 of my Photoshop final project. Here I used my own image of a person playing the piano and my own image of trees close up and out of focus (top right of the image). The stacked newspaper image is from Google. I wanted to demonstrate my understanding of layer masks, text, color, and image size in Photoshop.

Photoshop Final Project 1/4

This is part 1 of 4 of my Photoshop final project. Here I used my own image of the man in the photo and the newspaper showing through on the brick wall was an image I got from Google. I wanted to demonstrate my understanding of layer masks, text, color, and image size in Photoshop.

Shrek Silhouette

This is my pen tool silhouette created in Illustrator. With this, I took an image of Shrek from Google and traced it using the pen tool. This was a challenge because I traced the image trying to catch every detail of Shrek's silhouette so I did the entire image on extreme zoom. Although this was time consuming, it was well worth the effort because, to me, this is very clearly Shrek's silhouette.

Pen Tool

This is my first attempt with getting familiar with the pen tool in Illustrator. This was an existing document where I just traced over the lines on the page initially. Then, as I got more comfortable with the tool, I was able to create my own designs off of the existing ones and change the placement, color, etc.

Pear

This is the pear image that I created using Illustrator. The newest challenges I faced with this image was using the pen tool to trace and create new shapes, using the gradient tool, and using the rotation tool. This one took a bit longer than any of the Illustrator files I created prior to this but in the end I was very happy with the final look and I felt that I learned a lot about Illustrator through this assignment.
