First Blog

My name is Alexia Pez and I am very interested in this class. I'm excited to see what I am going to learn and I hope that I do not struggle in it, considering we have to do coding and I have never done that before! I am a very organized and motivated person who wants to learn new topics and skills to use throughout my life and career. Media is something I am attracted to because nowadays, everything revolves around media. The more I learn about it, the better I will feel because I will have a better understanding. 

Here is my picture that I converted into ASCII Art:

Autoscopy

Image
 My final product: My original image: Images I used: For this autoscopy project, I decided to create something that means a lot to me. My mother took this image of me driving one day, and I decided to use it to add the ocean in the window area. My goal was to make it seem as if I'm driving in the sea, and the sparkles at the top show how I am going somewhere nice and exciting. There is a light guiding me to my destination. The planet at the top of my head resembles how I always think about the universe and how interesting it is. I recently discovered that I am very into this topic, and I want to learn more about it. Finally, I added a rainbow at the bottom of my image to show that there can be different answers to your problems; that is why there are different colors in a rainbow. This means that people can see things differently, so only focus on what is best for you and take yourself there. This project was enjoyable to do, and I am excited to be learning so much about photoshop.

Three Photoshop Videos

First video:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KAmSB5MQxOo This video showed me that to create a new document, you have to press command N. If you double-click the background, you can make it into a new one where you can edit it. You can make different groups of layers, which is pretty cool. You can click and drag an image into the screen and scale it how you want. If you hold control, you can change the angles of the picture. You can change the hues, which changes the colors, and there are many options. It is easy to add blur or pixels to the image you are working on. Vibrance and saturation are very different. If you do not want to make people seem orange, you can change the vibrance but not the saturation. If you save as a PSD, all the layers and edits save altogether.  Second video:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpHiWOBQ4dM Adjustment layers can be changed at any time, and it is easy to edit them and add and delete things. You can use hue saturation to color the water. A layer ma

Business Card Sketches

Image
  These up here are my three sketches for possible business cards. It took me a little bit because I wanted to think of cool designs and not be boring. I like them because they are all different types of styles. The top one is more formal because it has less design, and it gets straight to the point. The second one has some lines and circles to add some design. Finally, the last one has some flowers which I think makes it look charming. Even though flowers can be a little overwhelming for professional things, I believe a couple of them or tiny ones would look fine. I am excited to see how they turn out in the application!  Updated card:
