Photoshop

    This video explained tools such as vibrance and saturation. I think these will be easy to brighten and darken images, so you don't have to individually change each color. They will be helpful for editing the whole image in one move. You can also easily use text in Photoshop in a similar way to Illustrator, so I think that should be easy enough to use.

    I think using layers will be a challenge for me. When I was working on my Illustrator project, sometimes my outlines would end up in different layers and I would have to manually move them around. The layers are helpful for sorting our different sections of the work, but I found them stressful. I think having to use over 50 layers will be difficult and might make this project harder for me to do successfully.

    The undo button will be helpful because I found myself making a lot of small mistakes in Illustrator and didn't like having to use keyboard buttons to remove my mistakes. The selection tool will be easy to use too because it will allow me to move certain parts of my image. I also want to use the clone stamp tool because it will come in handy to remove small details from the background, if my selfie isn't taken in front of a plain background. Overall, I am excited to use Photoshop and hope I will be able to figure it out.

Somewhere Project

Image
I wanted to put myself into a superhero show, because I love this genre and think it's fun to imagine myself with superpowers. I put myself into a scene from The Defenders, because there was a gap in this elevator scene that I thought I would fit nicely into. This was one of my favorite projects to work on, because I got to put myself into a different world and I think it turned out really well. The hardest part for me was blending the edges of my picture into the background image, because the tools weren't working exactly how I wanted them to. Overall, I had a good time working on the Somewhere project and would definitely try something like this again.

Portfolio

Image
For my final portfolio, I wanted to do something nature related. I've tried incorporating nature into almost all of my projects, and I wanted this one to do the same. I chose a sky theme, because I could add flying birds, which are my favorite animals. I put the projects in timeline order from this year, because I think going in order shows my progress the best. My first project wasn't the best, but once I got to the end, you can see how much I improved. I had a fun time doing the portfolio because I got to really see all my work together, and think about how much I've done in only one semester.

The Internet!

      The internet is potentially the most useful piece of technology available today. However, it was not always around for people to be able to learn the answer to any question in a heartbeat. On the first day of 1983, the internet as we know it today was created by Vinton Cerf and Bob Kahn. It was originally designed as a secret way of communication between scientists during the Cold War, and as time went on, engineers realized how great of a tool it could be if available to everyone in the public. The internet now is used for quick and easy research, communication across the world, and entertainment.       The World Wide Web is the collection of all webpages accessible by the public. Known more commonly as the Web, it was created in 1989 by British scientist Tim Berners-Lee. It was originally used as a system for managing and organizing documents. Over time, people realized it could be used for much more, as there are now websites for things such as public forums, media entertainme
