Bionic

My friend Annie was used to become bionic for this project. To create her as a bionic spacewoman, I first drew a line down the middle of Annie's face and body to separate her two different sides. Then, I liquified her curves to create a cartooned look. After perfecting Annie's body, I put together her outfit and skin. Finally, I colored her hair purple, which was my favorite attribute of the overall project.

Painting

This assignment was to take a photo and simply make it look like a painting. To do so, I applied three filters.

Comic Strip

For this project, we were allowed to work in partners. Annie and I decided that we wanted to make a comic about fruit, so we simply Googled fruit jokes on the web. To create the cartoon effect, we first added a surface blur to the pictures. Next, we added film grain and applied the color halftone effect. After applying the effects, we erased the effects off of ourselves. Last but not least, we liquified my eyes in the last strip, then added all the speech bubbles and arrows.

Panorama

This is a panoramic picture created in photoshop. To make this, all I had to do was choose three different photos taken in the same general area, upload them to photoshop, and merge them together. The panoramic project was probably the easiest that I have done so far this year, seeing that all I had to do was press a button, and the photoshop program did the rest.

Chair Art

For this assignment, we were given three different chairs. With each chair, we were asked to find artwork with a certain artist or theme, then take strips of the artists' paintings and use them to create a new fabric cover for each chair. We were also asked to create a shadow each chair by copying and pasting the chair itself, then filling it with black and using the distort tool to make the shadow more realistic.

Midterm

For our midterm exam, we were asked to make a grid of 35 photos. In each of the squares, we were instructed to apply any different filter, effect, or tool to each individual square (with the purpose of showcasing how much we have learned). In this project, I decided to do a sort of earthy theme.

Kaleidoscopic Images

To create these kaleidoscopic images, I first cut out a triangle of a regular picture, then repeated the triangle three more times to create a square. After this, I merged all the triangles together and put an effect on them. The first project I made was of a vending machine, and the second was of a stained glass art piece.
