Photoshop Assignments 2011


Photoshop Assignment 1: Collage

This is our introduction assignment for Adobe Photoshop. We were to find images off the internet/google and put them together into one piece of work utilizing layering, cutouts and the magic 
wand tool. 

Photoshop Assignment 2: Soviet-Style Poster

This project was meant to mimic the style of old Soviet propaganda posters. So we had to use sharp angles and bold blocks of colors. Textures were to be used as well as some filters, like the Photo Filter. 

Photoshop Assignment 3: Movie Poster

For this assignment, we had to create a B-Movie poster based on different techniques we had previously learned. We had to start with a background image, come up with a title, and add characters to the image to create a scene about what the movie was to be about. I chose bunnies because bun-buns are awesome.

Photoshop Assignment 4: Book Cover

Here we had to use a lens flare as our main technique. The image was to create a cover for a book, using a bronze-colored object and applying the lens flare to it to create that "shiny" effect.

Photoshop Final 1: Rosy Dragon

For the final, we had to use all the techniques we had learned throughout the class and apply it to the final. We also had to use a drawing we created ourselves. So, I made a dragon, colored in in Photoshop and added a flowery background.

Photoshop Final 2: Sweet and Sorrow Song

For this part of my final i collaged together something on a theme of 'song.' I used filters and layering to my advantage, as well as color. I also placed some text for added effect. 

Photoshop Special: Whut?

An unused work for my final. It's a picture consisting of a bunch of random images for a funny effect. I still don't understand it.
