12 Days of Photoshop: Day 2 - True Identity

Caitlin is a KANGAROO?!?!?!?!

I took a picture of Caitlin in the classroom and cut out the background using the polygonal lasso tool. Then, I placed her on a field. I took a picture of a cat on its hind legs and removed the background. After that, I colored the cat black and turned the opacity down to 64% so that you could see the grass through the cat picture. I cut off the tail because it went over the hill. I also don't think that Caitlin's true identity has a long tail like in the cat picture. I wasn't able to make Caitlin's feet look like they were in the grass and I couldn't get the proportion of Caitlin to the field correct. I think she should be smaller but yano...

12 Days of Photoshop: Day 1 - Sliced Elephant

jThe first project in the 12 days of photoshop was to slice something or someone in half! I used a round select tool to cut and past half of the elephant into a new layer. I used the same select tool to take a portion of nuts from a picture. I placed it where I thought the stomach would go. I added a shadow to give depth to the stomach and i drew in a shadow of the whole elephant so that it would look like it is standing. I colored it a grey that is similar to a shadow

Post-it Note Project: Paul Walker

The post-it note project is a portrait of a person made entirely out of sticky notes. We took a picture of Paul Walker and altered it in Photoshop. We changed the contrast, color scheme, and pixel size. After printing this picture, my group used half of the face as a guide. Each pixel of color represented one sticky note. We filled the whole poster with sticky notes and hung it in the Cary Towne Mall :-)
