Three Photoshop Videos

First video:

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.

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 mark can let you hide or show specific stuff from your layers. If you want to make water bluer but do not want to make the mountains blue, you can hide it by using this. Then if you paint with white over the water, only the water will be visible as blue. It is very easy to change the settings regarding saturation, and it does not matter when you do it.

This tutorial taught me how to make portraits look professional and excellent. You can duplicate the layer and apply filters until you decide what looks best. Then you can look at the presets and decrease opacities. You can create color adjustment layers. Fill it into the picture, and whatever color you chose will show the color. With the brush tool, you can add a blob of paint and place it where you want a cool extra effect that gives colorful light. This video showed me how to play with different tools and effects, and I cannot wait to learn how to use them better.

Calligram

Image
 Final Project: Artist Statement: I decided to create a Calligram using my favorite letter, "A." The words inside the "A" consist of a letter I wrote to my future self 20 years from now. At first, I thought I would use a palm tree for this project, but then I decided that I would suffice with this letter because it is very special to me. My name starts with an "A," and I like how it is the alphabet's first letter. I also like the idea of this letter because since I am writing this letter to myself, and I am "A," it will be cute when in 20 years, I read this and see it inside an A because it will be my past self who wrote it and my future self reading it, but the same person. I decided to add something special and make every word that starts with an "a" be a different color, so they stand out, and whenever I wrote my name, I made them pink, so that stands out even more. To create this, I used the compound path tool to be able to writ...

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:
