Splash of YELLOW

splash of color edited

This photo was my favorite to do even though it took me awhile to figure out how to use a program called art weaver. I took a picture of the minions from the movie Despicable Me. and turned the ppicture to grey-scale and messed with the brightness and contrast. Then I used the lasso tool to outline the minion I wanted to change to color. Lastly I used the eraser tool to change the minion to yellow and keep the rest black and white!! I used this photo because I love the minions in this movie I think they are so cute. :)

My Buddy

My buddy

This is my buddy when I went to the courtyard today. He is sitting in the BIG white chair and it is a good things that there is some RED in my buddy because it does not blend in with the chair. Instead the Red makes my buddy stand out!! I got this stuffed animal on valentines day from my best friends Mom. So it is one of the special stuffed animals I have. :)

Album cover

album cover

The process to create this photo was interesting. I followed the directions as to which photo to pick and what text to write in to make my album cover. I loved that this photo is random and mine actually makes some sense because the background photo is of a cat and the album name is “If it’s true that our species” by Fisher, Montana. When making the album cover, I used picmonkey.com to help me edit my cover and make it more interesting. ToΒ  pick the fonts of the text I just tried some and picked one that looked good with the picture. I re sized the picture and made bigger. Then I used the Andy Worhol technique for my album cover mixing a dark blue and white. I thought the technique made the cover more interesting and make it stand out.

 

Draw it

I used the random spin wheel for this assignment. And I got Draw it! Here I took a picture of a picture that I have from my mom. Its of me sitting in a fridge. Long story… haha. So I uploaded this photo into Dumper. Here they automatically make whatever photo you upload into a sketch drawing. Very easy site to use.

Common Everyday Objects

I took a picture of some ordinary objects I use everyday, such as sunglasses, car keys, pens and pencils, my iphone, and a watch. Then I uploaded this picture on PicMoney. There is where I changed the color, saturation, temperature and sharpness of the photo.

Albulm Cover

Coveralbulm

This was pretty simple, but exciting because you had no idea what title, band, or cover picture you were going to get. For this assignment I gathered all three items to make my album. After which I used PicMoney to create and edit my picture. I messed around with fonts and effects for the picture. The original picture was black and white. However, once I messed with the effects, I got to change the picture to orange.

Normal to Extraordinary

Normal to ExTrAoRdInArY

We had a lot of fun with this picture. My friend loves to do her makeup, and usually takes hours getting ready so I thought I’d ask her to do this for me. We took paint and dripped it down her face. Set her up against the Eagle Landing courtyard fence and took a picture. Iv always been interested in paint and i just remember seeing famous portraits taken with paint so I decided to have fun and try. After I uploaded the picture I used a picture editing site called PicMonkey. Here I created a collage and uploaded a regular photo of her I had on my computer from her Facebook, and uploaded the picture I had taken. After which I saved it onto my computer where I uploaded the collage on Flickr.

Splash that Color

Bartender

I took this picture downtown at Capital Ale. The bartender was pouring the beer and I thought it would be cool to see the flow of beer drop down into the glass. I asked the bartender and he was pleased to let me take a photo. I uploaded this into a free version of Photoshop. I learned how to do Color Splash on Photoshop from Youtube. This is the video I watched. It is very simple and easy!
