Go Make Me Something



For this project we were given a picture of a plane to use in any way that we chose.  To make this picture, I used the pen tool to select the plane and place it in the sky.  I then took a picture of a bull rider and used a layer mask to select him and put him on the plane.  This project was easy because I already knew how to use every tool I used in making this picture.

Giant Ego



This is a composite of two images.  For this project we took a picture of a girl and put her into the background photo of a room.  This project was not too difficult, however it did take a lot of time.  The easiest part of this project was using the Pen Tool to select the image of the girl in order to put her into the background photo.  In order to make the girl look more like she actually belonged in the background photo, we had to create a number of adjustment layers, which was difficult to do because we had o determine the right amount of Hue, Saturation, and Brightness to allow this photo to have.

Re-Design

















This is the re-designed logo of Jaspers' Rink.  This design is better because it is simpler than the first design.  The bird was taken out of this design because a bird doesn't have anything to do with an ice rink.  This design  has a hockey puck, which goes better with an ice rink than a bird does.  Also, this design only has two colors, which looks better than the original background which was a gradient of 4 different colors.  This new design is also made using Photoshop, which looks better than the original which looked like it was hand drawn.
