Stop Motion


This was really time consuming and boring. I don't like projects like this because
it takes way too much time and it requires attention to detail and a steady hand.
I would not recommend this type of project for beginners.

Before and After


Just playing around with Photoshop.
Look at the difference 20 Minutes of editing can do.

More Retouching



This project was relatively easy. I ended up changing her eye color, hair color, 
nail color, dress color, skin tone, whitened her teeth, made her face thinner and
changed her necklace. I think it turned out pretty well.

From "Gag" to "Glam"

                                                  BEFORE                                    AFTER

This project was really challenging solely because you had to make everything 
look realistic.I think the end product turned out great, and I'm surprised that the make up turned 
out as well as it did. There was a lot of work and effort that went into this piece, but in the end 
I'm happy with the final results. :)

Retouching Magic


                                            BEFORE                                           AFTER
                        
This project was very interesting because this is what some professionals 
do everyday before they post pictures in magazines. You can tell her skin 
looks softer and her eyes look brighter in the retouched picture. Now when
I look at magazines I'll know how ugly they really were before the retouching.

Painted Parrot

This project was hard at first because I didn't know where to begin. I pretty much just 
played with Photoshop the whole class period and this is what i came up with.
I am pleased with the final result because its really colorful and it looks nice.

RGB Color Wheel


This was a fun project but it was very tedious. 
I like my final product a lot and I think it turned out really well.
I wish we could have used internet pictures because they would have been a lot cooler.
Overall this project was fun and creative and the final product is very colorful.

Outer Space

This assignment was extremely difficult because we had to explore Photoshop and figure things out for ourselves. I think it turned out pretty good, it could be better but it took me the whole class period just to do this. I learned about different effects on Photoshop and how to use them during this project.

Retro Hand

This project was my favorite by far!
I love adding color to make pictures look retro and different.
Making the colors sounded like it was going to be hard, but it was actually really easy!

Horsky

This project was probably the most difficult project we've had so far.
It was a challenge to get the right blend of color to make the picture look realistic.
The final product turned out really well though, and I'm glad with the results.
