Self Portrait Makeover October 21st

Last Class, we learned about portraits and how to edit them, like they do for magazines, and posters. We then went out, and shot the image with a grey backdrop. We then edited it using protocols, and then used channel mixer, which is another way to turn an image to gray scale. We also used the layer tool as well as a surface blur to soften and blur out everything, then erased all the features that should be sharp, the reason for this was to put emphasis on the eyes and mouth and hair, to make the photo more dramatic and make everything more soft. I also used the clone stamp tool. The picture above is the end result.

Fall Light October 7th

Yesterday, we went and shot a "fall light" assignment. This assignment was to use the warm and cold fall light in with previous concepts we have used to demonstrate high level final product. In this photo I took into consideration, leading lines and rule of thirds when "shooting" the photo, afterwards I added in the quick mask. In the first photo you will see the leading lines, point of interest, and rule of thirds emphasized. In the second you will not.

Rule of Thirds-October 6th 2010

In this assignment, we went out and shot photographs, after learning about the rule of thirds. This rule states that the main subject or subject's of the picture are not in the center but more towards the side on a set of intersecting lines. The lines are shown here to show the understanding of the concept.
