This magazine included our model, Chris, and a motherboard template photo. The words "Digital" has a clipping mask of the motherboard and the glasses were originally red and were painted green. The text coming from the mouth were made by duplicating a warped path and changing the fonts and spacings. The words on the side were originally all in normal size and had to be edited to be more appealing to the eye and the overall end picture is a very pleasing picture!

This started out with just a blue screen and some templates but with some easy editing, I made this into an awesome magazine cover! You use a ton of filters in this editing process, I added a blur effect, made my own racing flag pattern and also made some effects to the other photos of the car using the filter gallery. The line tool was used for the road
This project included a picture of a young boy on a playground with some serious red eyes, a group of ducks, an egret (which is a stork like bird), a train that was off the rails, a column from a great architectural beauty, and a group of photos that were made to be formed into a panoramic view of a pretty city. The boy was an easy fix, all I had to do was use a redeye tool and brighten the picture a little to give it more life. The ducks required the use of a special tool that takes anything in a picture and can move it to anywhere else in a photo by copy and pasting the background while you free transform it, so i moved the third duck a little closer to it's friends! The train just required the use of a distortion tool to shape it onto the tracks and slightly bend it so it looks like is has gained some speed. The column had a barrel view which made it looked kinda unsightly so i bent it back into shape using the perspective tool and made it look straight again. The Panoramic view wasn't too complicated, all you had to do was place all the photos into a certain tool and it will form all of them into the according order. They had to be slightly brightened and made a heck of a time working on them! Overall, this project taught the use of the many new tools that can be used for editing and making pictures look more appealing to the eye. This project had a picture of a piano and some music. I made my own base background layer and added some nice red and purple coloring to it. I also added some stars to there piano to give it an appealing look to it. The notes were made using an elliptical tool, a pen tool, and other forming tools. I used many of these forming tools in other ways as well. The flag connected to the notes and the stars were made with a certain brush tool.
This assignment was a tough one to try. It contained two downloadable images and a bundle of small images. The two images were the beach scene that is slightly tilted in the picture and the purple flower in the bottom left corner. These were all combined to form a postcard that turned out great! The flowers and text required a drop shadow on them to make them stick out more. The pineapple required some contrasting to give it some life and the beach scene, along with the rest of the image, were given a whiter border and edited into the image itself. All in all this was a huge success and turned out great for any tourist looking to visit the beautiful islands of Hawaii!
What started out as a barren, empty, and depressing lot, became a beautiful property with flowers, grass and statues! this started out with just dirt and no life to it at all, but when i used different images to freshen it up a little it turned out great! So you start out with sod, a tree, one bush, a flower bed, an image of a house, and a statue of a lion. These images are placed into the background image (the house in this case) and duplicated, contrasted, and brightened up using different types of tools. The lions required the magic wand tool to erase all the outside white and the bush had this requirement as well. The tree required a magic eraser to remove certain colors from a specific color background. The flowerbed and the base for the tree required a magnetic lasso tool to trace the out to place them into the photo. Then you had to use the sod to take out the grass coloring and paste it onto the dirty old beat up soil. That's fairly all this entailed and was a rigorous adventure to say the least.
This started out with six items a sand dollar, a mollusk, coral, a nautilus shell, a plate of sea shells, and a screw. These items were to be put into this showcase for all the world to see and enjoy! I first used a magnetic lasso tool to cut out a majority of these and used many other beneficial methods as well, such as the Magic Wand too to paint all the colors of the mollusk to cut and place it in it's correct box. The items selected in this showcase had to have a certain shade on them for graphical effect. So I placed them slightly to the right of each box to create a shadow effect. Overall was an enjoyable assignment!
the original photo for this project started out with two candle and one batch of candies. I added two more tall candles by using a lasso tool to crop out and duplicate them to change their size and shape. I did the same process to the shorter candles as well. The tall candles were slightly askew so i had to use a magnetic lasso to trace the wick to move it into the correct placement. All I did with the candies was moved them in front of one of the candles. All in all a complete success!
This image had it's complications but how it went down is that I was given this photo without the lower ribbon and had to add it on myself by creating a rectangular Marquee box and then matching the color of the top ribbon by sampling it's color using the sampling tool and then filling it in with a brush tool. After all of that was completed I cut a triangle shaped etching into the ribbon to give it a stylish look and I added the name Elaine to it so it could have some feeling behind it. It was a fairly large image so I had to save a Photoshop document version in case of editing and a JPEG image for uploading. Overall a complete success!
In the parasailing project, I was given a fairly large picture of what seems to be a man parasailing in a clear, blue sky. I was told that this image was too large and that it needed to be more focused on the single person and that it should be decorative. So i added a pretty white border using a editing option located at the top of the screen and enlarged this image using a tool called a Zoom Tool and magnified it to about 125% the normal size resulting in a decent looking advertisement for a parasailing company!
