For this assignment (4.5 stars), we had to take a picture of a friend doing something similar to an emoji. I asked my friend if they wanted to partake in this assignment and to send me a picture of them looking like an emoji. Out of all the emojis, this is what he chose! The resemblance is striking, but here he is posing as a tree.

To complete the assignment, I used a collage app where I can compare the photos side by side and then uploaded it to Flickr. Overall, I am happy with results and got a good laugh out of it!

Monkey See, Monkey Do

Choosing the Mashing Friends and Emojis assignment was a no brainer, because I love using emojis… and then times that by 1000 and that’s how much I love my friends. It seemed like a fun way thing to do to get my friends involved in my assignment.

I chose the three monkey emojis, because I use those the most out of all the emojis. I use them in a lot of different situations. I use them for cute things, embarrassing/or bashful things, or the literal “hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil” saying that they represent. They are so versatile!

I created the mash-up using an app called BeFunky. I insterted the pictures side by side and then added the text to give it some flare. I think my friends are (almost) just as cute as the monkeys!

Emoji Mashup!

View Assignment Details

For my second mashup assignment of the week I chose to complete the assignment titled, “Mashing Friends and Emojis” because it seemed like it would be fun. In order to complete this assignment I first looked up emoji images. I chose about four emoji faces that a person could possibly replicate. So, I called my little brother over and asked him to make the same expression as each different emoji face. His best expression that matched an emoji was his surprised/scream face. So, I took a picture of him making that face and mashed it together with the surprise/scream emoji face!

This assignment was worth four and a half stars contributing to this week’s 12 star requirement.

Mashing Friends and Emojis

View Assignment Details

My second mashup assignment I did this was Mashing Friends with Emojis which is worth 4 stars making my total now 7 1/2 stars for the week thus far. This assignment tells you to take a picture of someone who is acting like an emoji face. I had just taken this picture last week of my boyfriend’s niece and thought it would look so cute with the sunglass emoji picture. I did this by saving the emoji pic online and then mashing it with the picture of the Karleigh (the baby) using PicStich on the iPhone. I liked how it turned out, except for the quality of the emoji picture!

Above is a picture of my sister on a family vacation and right below that are the two emojis that fit her expression. I found the emojis online (google image search) and edited them into an image together using freephototool.com. What do you guys think of the real life/emoji mashup/comparison?

The Work Itself

This mashup assignment is titled “Mashing Friends And Emojis“, its instructions are to “take a picture of one of your friends or just a person that is in the moment doing something exactly like an emoji and then mash them together for comparison.” It is currently rated 3.5/5 stars for difficulty.

The Story Behind The Story

My friend Sean Prin has been sick the last few days and my roommates and I have forced him to wear a mask and maintain a a 3 ft radius from anyone of us. These tactics are in an effort to keep the rest of us healthy. His face of amazement and disbelief stems from the moment I told him that he no longer has to wear the mask. After much consideration, my roommates and I agreed that the sickness was no longer contagious so he was no longer a threat to our health. This is what friends are for…looking after each other for the better of everyone.

The Process, Narrated

I took two pictures of my friend Sean and matched to the appropriate emojis. I simply took the photos with my iPhone, emailed the images to myself and downloaded the images. Then I searched the matching emojis on google images and found the ones I wanted and downloaded those to my desktop. I uploaded the images directly into my blog post. I arranged the corresponding photos horizontally so as to show which emoji goes with what photo. Here a few photos documenting my process.

For this assignment you are to take a picture of one of your friends or just a person that is in the moment doing something exactly like an emoji and then mash them together for comparison.

Being an iPhone user and an avid texter, I’ve become obsessed with emojis! The latest iPhone software update included a lot of new emojis and this is one of my favorite.

How I Did It:

This assignment was very simple. All I had to do was find an emoji then take a picture of someone recreating it. The person I used to make the face was my brother and the emoji I used was the rolling eyes. He’s always rolling his eyes at me whenever I ask him for something so I though he was the perfect person to use for this! I took the picture of my brother on my iPhone. To get the picture of the emoji to be bigger I used the app Phonto.

Next, I used the app Picstitch to put the emoji and the recreation side by side. All I had to do was choose the photos from my Camera Roll and re-size them once I put them in the frame.

I chose this 4 star assignment because it seemed very simple to do. To start it, I went on Facebook and found a picture from my profile in which I thought someone looked like an emoji. Instead of choosing the emoji first, I looked for photos that had the expression of an emoji I’ve seen and decided to go with this picture:

Which immediately made me think of this emoji:

So I opened up Microsoft Paint and cropped the photo so it most represented the emoji:

Then I pasted the picture of the emoji next to the picture above in Microsoft Paint and created the mashup:

Mashup Assignment 1506

For this assignment you are to take a picture of one of your friends or just a person that is in the moment doing something exactly like an emoji and then mash them together for comparison.

This assignment was extremely simple, besides finding a model. Once I found a model choosing an emoji was also tricky but after that it was just snapping the picture, blowing the emoji that the picture was modeled after up in Snapchat and then making a pic collage of the two images.

So I took a picture of my dad, pondering how to cook the turkey.

Then took a picture on Snapchat of a black background.

Then using the third button from the top right I placed the thinking emoji on the screen.

Then I made the emoji fill the whole screen.

I then went to Pic Collage and selected the two pictures.

And made this! Which I then saved and then wahlah! I was done!
