For this photoshop assignment, we were given the opportunity to search out photoshop tutorials and experiment with different techniques and tools. I really enjoyed being able to try new things and explore all the different projects. I found a lot of tutorials that I was interested in, but sadly I didn't have enough time to try all of them. Dash Of Color: For this assignment we had to change a photo to black and white and use the history brush to reveal an area of color. I've always thought this style was captivating, because of how well it directs the viewer's attention in a photograph, and adds a point of interest in the scene. To do this we desaturated the image and then painted over our spot with the history brush to reveal the camera. Polaroid: For this piece we used layer masks, groups, and layer stacks to create the illusion of an image composed of a pile of polaroids. I like the way this turned out and it's cool to understand how to to use layer masks because of all the different applications that they can be used for. Galaxy Eye: For this project I used the layer mask, blur, screen, and filter adjustment tools. I had some trouble with this one because of how the colors were turning out, but I'm happy with the end result. I tried two variations with two different galaxy images but I prefer the blue one because it's not as busy, and looks more natural. Low Poly: This project was the one that gave me the most difficulty because of how each individual triangle needed to be drawn. Originally I wanted to make a low poly image out of a face but realized that it would take hours so I decided to keep with the space theme and use a planet. I really love the minimalistic/3D polygon style so I was excited to try this, but I regretted not being able to try other tutorials. For this project I learned about the polygon lasso, grid snaps, anti-aliasing, and filter blurs. I'd really like to try this again and devote enough time to polish it up as much as I can.
