Screen Shot Blog



In this website project, I thought mostly it was pretty simple to follow the online directions from edmodo, but at times it was hard to find certain properties or certain tools to get this project finished. I think this project was pretty fun, although I wish that the instructions would be a little easier to understand. Web design is a lot different from graphic design. Web design you have to go through a certain process, of applying the website. I had more fun doing graphic design then web design.

Photoshop Projects




For The Monarch butterfly project, I used photoshop to change it to my own style. Some techniques that I used were to zoom in and out of it so I could get every little detail. In the other project I used the mask tool to make it appear that the school was hiding behind the letters. In the ONW and Compass project I used the shading tool or fade tool to fade the letters and compass into the background school pictures. For the picture with all school pictures I also used the fading tool. While erasing the cars and the two light poles I used the clone stamp tool to practically erase them, or hide them. For the name project I used a tie-dye background and used different gradients to make my own different backgrounds. Im Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop, I could see why graphic designers need both because, they need different tools to create different images, erasing things, different types of gradients and so on.
