Exercises

Week 1
Today was the first week of class. We were introduced to Adobe Photoshop. We were intoduced to some of the basic tools such as quick selection tool, masking tool, etc. We learned to photoshop dora into the 'Hearst Mansion' background. Then we were told to photoshop a picture of ourself into the background as well.

Week 2
This week we learned more about Photoshop. We learned to edit an old house into a 'dark cloud' background during class. Afterwards, we added a picture of a 'ghost bride' into the old house. We learned several blending tools such as screen, multiply, etc. We were also given the option to edit the 'old house' picture into two different sunset pictures. I decided to choose the sunset picture with clouds on it.

Week 3
For the third week of class, we did a recoloring exercise. We had to add color to a black and white image. We added color to a portrait of a man during class, however I did not really like the result of it.

We were then given the task to recolor another black and white portrait. I found two portraits that I really liked and couldn't choose between the two. So, I decided to recolor two portraits.

Week 4
 For this week's class, we learned a new term - displacement mapping. During class, we learned how to apply a texture to an image. We did two exercises in class. The first one was placing a picture of a flag on silk, and the other one was changing the texture of a man's skin.

We were then asked to change the characteristics of an animal. I decided to use a giraffe's skin on a little kitten.
