Image Manipulation





For this class I had 3 projects to do. The first two were photoshop and the last project was illustrator. The first project was an old military photo that was taken back in ten-buck-two. What I had to do was restore this photo to make it look as if it just came right out of the dark room... printer or whatever was used back then... you get the idea. You had to be careful though, we were told not to make it look like a picture you would see these days. You can still see a few scratches in the retouched photo but when I had it printed, the scratches were gone. I got a 96 on this project.
The next photo was something I had to create from scratch. This was called our visual essay. I had to pick a song and identify keywords of the song and put them into a picture. My song: 18 and Life by Skid Row. Another 96 for this project.
Next and last was my illustrator project. I was given a letter of the alphabet and I had to illustrate that letter in whatever way I thought would be artistic. My letter was S so I chose S is for Snoopy. I had a hard time with this project because we only worked with illustrator for 3 weeks. What do ya know, I got a 96 on this project. A word of advise for those who are planning on going back to school- sleeping is not an option.
Although I wasn't to happy with the way everything went in this class, I passed with flying colors.
