This is my hot sauce ad I created to go alone with with the bottle of hot sauce I created. I got practice with the gradient tool along with putting effects on texts (drop shadow). I also used rulers to insure alinement of my my texts and icons at the bottom of the page.  The hand was a little tricky to select, and it was not a full hand so i could only place it in the corner.

Today i was assigned a pen tool exercise in my visual design class. It was pretty easy but a good refresher on how to use the pen tool in Adobe Illustrator. I had a little bit of struggle with like click un-click then click again on the same point which I thought was strange. over all good work flow.

This project is difficult and was not easy to accomplish. illustrator is a monster of its own. I had know clue what I was doing and managed to scrape this together.

This was my attempt at making a scholarship poster for the college of my choice. I choose the Naval Academy because it is where I aspired to go. I had a hard time with this project because I had no template to go off of. Also trying to figure out the placement of the pictures was a difficult task. I can be honest and say I did not learn any new features to make this photoshop project. But trying to figure out how to select the intricate gold "emblem" was a task.

 

This is my attempt at a vintage poster. In the adobe photo shop cs6 project I learned how to download paint brush fonts, I learned how to select the text and invert it on a mask to provide a knock out effect to the poster. I also learned some elements of adobe illustrator. I had quite a jolly time trying to conjure up my vague knowledge of illustrator to make the banner in the middle.

My project completed on 11-13-13 is the magic lamp. In this project I worked with downloading new brush files. I used a hue saturation adjustment layer, I learned how to rotate the brush, gained experience using my table to create sparkles around the lamp. and I also learned how to create at an animation and save my file for web using a gif. I actually Did not have a whole lot of struggles with this project.

Our resent most project was invisible man. It was easy in some ways and hard in others. becoming more experienced with photo shop masking to blend objects has become a lot easier. which is what this project consisted of. I learned to take more object than what I need. I had to recreate the pants sleeve cuffs and collar of tee shirt. The collar was definitely the hardest part. Things I learned were the patch to which is how I removed the head. I also learned you can use the eraser hold shift and click straight across and it will make you a perfectly straight line.
