Yearbook Spread: Senior Boys Soccer


First I found a good background photos that had lots of extra space to place photos, text, and headers.
Then I edited all my photos on photoshop to create and overall theme of the photos, then braught them all onto InDesign. Once I organized them all the way I wanted, and created a title and header, I was done.
Image Complete.

I took a Monet painting, then searched up some other photos of flowers, lilypads, water, plants ect.
I put each photo on its own layer, and changed opacities and other characteristics. I used a lot of the clone stamp. Then once i flattened the image and used brush strokes to create a painting effect.

Sketch Design


First I found an image on the internet that I enjoyed then sketched it in my notebook. Then I scanned it onto my computer and saved it. Then I used illistrator and ohotshop to clean it up and create an image i was content with. I liked it a little rough around the edges and black and white to keep the effect i wanted. Image complete.

Web Tshirt Design



I searched the internet for a insiprational quote. I then downloaded a font that I thought suited my quote and mood I wanted for my shirt. Then downloaded a brush to create a subtle pattern. Each on it's own layer then I flattened the image and saved. Image complete.

Green Screen



First  a portrait was taken infront of a green screen, then with photoshop I extracted my self, then did all my protocals on the photo and used the clone stamp for the hair, and the spot healing tool for some unwanted blemishes. Then I chose the backround I would like to place myself in. Then Changed boht photos to grayscale. And to blur the outsides of the portrait to make it seem like it belonged in the backround, I used the eraser to make things blend. Then changed the lighting effects and used dodge and burn for the sky.
Then it was complete

8 Panel Project


I took photos all on the same topic then changed them all no monochrome.
I editted some leves and used dodge and burn tool, then downloaded some brushes to add effects and create better ideas. All the while making sure that as I did each photo I was creating silimarities in each one. Then I put them all onto the same document and added text to msot of the frames and put it into a panel formation.

Photoshop Portrait


We found a spot with flat lighting. Took the photo.
Then I changed the levels to make the lighting a bit more bright. Then upped the contrast a bit. When I was done that I used the channel mixer to change to monochrome mode. Then i started to edit my face and hair. I smoothed the skin, then got rid of unwanted blemishes with the spot healing tool. Then used the burn and dodge tool to make things more natural and flattering.

September Light


With this photo I did not need to do too much to get to my end result. The photo shows long shadows that result from the autumn light. I adjusted my colors and brightness to get a good composition, and used burn tool to make some parts of the photo look more balenced. I used the rule of thirds to have the main subject of my photo be the main attraction by not being centred. And there are dramatic use of lines, to create a dramatic photo.

Rule of Thirds : Relationship


I thought changing this photo to grayscale helped focus on the playful relationship in the photo and the rule of thirds helps focus it aswell.

Rule of thirds : Pointing


I used all my photoshop protocals on this, had to adjust my levels and contrast quite a bit.
Then created my rule of thirds.

leading lines


In this photo i created two layers, one fro the ground and one for the backround.
I then brightened featured parts of the photos and made sure when taking the photo that lines were leading to the 'victim'

Duotone


In this photo i began by doing all my photoshop protocals then created a quick mask and blurred the backround, so that the main focus in the picture is the actual portrait part of it.

Landscape layers



In this photo, I created two layers and did all my photoshop protocals and created water that draws your eyes in then sharpened the backround details.
