Designing Jared

The Project

The project was to update the model's clothes , hair and background to make him your own. We used images we found off the web and masked them in.

How I incorporated the tools

I used the brush too give Jarod makeup. I used the blending to make it more realistic. I used the mask to give Jarod a cake head, I Also used making to add patterns in the clothes and backround.

with the adjustments I just changed the saturation.

The result 

The result didn't end up like my vision because I changed my plans when finding pictures. My original idea was to do a 90s theme , but then I thought of incorporating

sweets. At the end I was pretty impressed with myself.

Surviving photoshop

The Assignment

In graphic design I was assigned videos to fall along to too learn photoshop skills. I don't have much experience with photoshop so I found the videos quite hard to follow. I took a long time on this project and struggled through it. Even though this was hard I got through it. After all of this I learned a lot and I will probably use these tools in the near future.

The Tools

Content aware

Out of all the tool I found content aware being the easiest. Content aware allowed me getting rid of text in a click of a button. I find this tool very useful and I will use it in the future.

Patch tool

Out of these tools i disliked the patch tool the most. The patch tool allows you to move over content . I struggled the most when trying to use this, and I liked the other tools better for                          covering up stuff.

Clone stamp

I found the clone stamp quite useful. It allowed me to copy other textures and colors and fill in areas with it. sometimes it got quite glitchy but , I was able to work through it.

Healing Brush

The healing brush let you fix small mistakes such as blemishes. Sometimes i found it useless when it came to fixing my own mistakes. Although getting rid of blemishes was very easy with this tool. I don't see my self using this much for graphic design but it can definitely be helpful for editing pictures.

Collage

Out of the project the collage took the longest. Although I learned a lot of useful stuff , like using layer mask. In graphic design  i really do see myself using the layer mask in graphic design.
