Photoshop Tutorial - Photoshop Compositing Tutorial | Photo Manipulation - YouTube



       In this video the composing tutorial for photoshop. This teaches you how to add something for one photo and put it into another photo. This video doesn't use audio so its basically just following along to what he/she is doing in the video. This part of photoshop is very cool. I find it fascinating how you can add one photo to another and it look like one photo. Photoshop is super cool but it seems like it is so hard. I am happy we are learning to do stuff like this because I feel as though it is a very unique skill people would like to know.

Logo

Image
          The reason I decided to make this logo is because I am aspiring to become a doctor. It has been a life long dream of mine to help save lives. One of the best ways to do that is to become a doctor. It takes years of hard work, dedication, and drive to become a doctor. Its a grueling and painful process but in the end it will pay off. My mother is a doctor and has been a huge inspiration in why I would like to become one. We often follow in our parents footsteps and I am quite proud to follow in my mothers. My logo is an object often used in the medical field known as a stethoscope. It is what doctors use to hear the heartbeat of a patient. I blend in the initial of my first name in this logo to make it more personalized. All in all this logo means a lot to me and is something that I strive to become and something I am working to become.

All my life I thought I saw the world how everyone else does, I had no idea I saw "differently" than most people. I started to notice I see things differently when I was in about 5th grade. People would call out colors they saw on the teachers screen and I just didn't see the same color. I found out that I was color blind when I did a color blind test with my family. We sat down and did it and I couldn't see the numbers (your supposed to be able to see a certain number to pass the color blind tests). My mother had told me that my Grandpa was color blind and it was a hereditary trait. My brother is also color blind. Color really is all about perspective. We all see different shades or even colors, our eyes all work differently. No ones eyes are the same and I think that

Somewhere

Image
          This is the finished product for my Somewhere project. Overall this was my favorite project of this class. The objective was to place ourselves in and environment next to a celebrity, athlete, or in a movie. This project too me about 6-8 hours to complete but I enjoyed doing it. Like I said this was my favorite project because I got to place myself doing a jersey swap with one of my favorite baseball player in Vladimir Guerrero Jr.  Some things  I  had trouble with were getting the netting to lineup so it  didn't  look off and the  background. All in all this was my favorite project.
