Vector Mask

Today assignment was to merge 3 pictures, I didn't think it was going to be that hard, because to make it easy there was the vector mask option. this is in the layer palette, and basically we added another layer to each layer we already had, then with the gradient tool, using the black and white one, we merged every end of the pictures. We can use this photoshop experience if we ever have to create a big image with many pictures in it.

Filter Gallery Assignment

In this assignment we got to use something different than usual in photoshop! We learned how to apply to our pictures the different types of filters in the filter gallery. I chose a picture of a beach and I changed its texture, its style, and I made it look really artistic. At the end my work was a canvass with 4 different options of one picture. It was cool to learn how to modify our pictures so easily just with the filter gallery!

Exploding carrots

In this assignment I learned so many things! The original picture was an image of three carrots, and in a separate file there was a picture of a dynamite. Our goal was to put the dynamite in between the carrots without letting people know that that dynamite wasn't actually there. The process didn't take too long, first I reduced the opacity (which is something new I learned) of the dynamite so I could see the edge of the carrots and erase with the eraser tool the extra part of the dynamite that was over the carrots. To make look perfect I needed to zoom in a lot! To make it look realistic I learned how to use the dodge and the burn tool, these two tools made it either brighter (dodge tool) or darker (burn tool)! So check out the result!
