(Project #1: Film-Still Illustration - Photoshop Final Product)

Here is my Photoshop final product for Project #1. My original photograph [see below at February 3 post] had a sad and depressing mood to it, but now the final product has a calm and dreamy feeling to it. My original photograph was a reflection of me in a mirror looking sad and now my final product is me sitting on an airplane spinning a globe and wondering about life. As you can see there is a big difference between the two photographs except for my face. I got the pictures of the airplane seat, sky and globe online and I had to retake a picture of my whole body since my original photograph only had part of my body. Then I used the tools in Adobe Photoshop to create the final product above.

Assignment: Trace over one of the GIF format signage symbols

I know how to use Adobe Illustrator more than Adobe Photoshop so tracing the icon above with a pen tool wasn't that difficult for me. I also took Technical Drawing my senior year of high school so I've had much experience with tracing objects.

Assignment: Composite Two Photographs (from your Proj. #1 Photos)

I took two photographs that I wasn't using for Project #1 and combined them to create the result above. I also added some other elements, such as grass and the fairy wings.

(Original Photo for Project #1: Film-Still Illustration)

This is the original photo that I am going to use for Project #1. I have to manipulate the original photo in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator to create a visual statement different from the original photo's visual statement.
