Clone

I like the outcome of this and the way it fades so it shows my movement through the picture instead of there being seven of me through out. This is pretty successful especially when you look at it on the background of my blog or something dark. The faded look really worked for me but next time I'm going to try to find an easier way to go about that. Erasing the same thing a billion times on every layer was really annoying but I wouldn't say challenging, it is a pretty easy assignment. I learned how to do this project as I have wondered in the past at how people do this.

Header


Well I was looking at my blog and said to myself "Wow this looks kinda boring. I need to add something other than my posts."
So what I did was I made this header that is at the top behind what says Mike's Works

Romans 5:6-8

My freshman year I accepted Christ and it has definitely changed my life, I recently heard this verse and while looking through a website for tutorials I saw a picture and out of no where got the inspiration to do this. This semester and for the rest of my life I want to tell others around me about God and the things he has done in my life. Let's just say this is a start to that.

Walk Animation

1. Describe your overall thoughts on the final piece.

I could have colored in the drawing a little better but other than that it was excellent
3. What worked about this project? What didn’t work?
The actual animation part worked well but the lining up of the pictures was a little off.
4. If you were to do this project over again, what changes would you consider making?
Being a little more creative with my drawing would be something I would change.
5. What was the most difficult part about completing this piece and why?
I thought this project was very simple. It only took me a few days to complete.

5 Compositions With 5 Elements

^ Photo

^ Font

^ Brush

^ Texture

^ Hand drawing
1. Describe your overall thoughts on the final piece. I really like the final looks of all of these, really brings me back to what I used to do with Photoshop. I like stuff like this and can get pretty creative while at the same time being really simple. 2. How successful do you feel this piece is and why? I think I did a good job at keeping the focus on the element that I was intending to be the focal point. 3. What worked about this project? What didn’t work? The 5 different elements that I used worked really well together and I also like the colors. Only thing that I don't think worked very well was the idea of adding the elephant in all of them, I had a hard time figuring out where I wanted it but then once I found a good spot it all came together. 4. If you were to do this project over again, what changes would you consider making? There isn't much I would really change about this. I like the idea of it and how I got the designs to look in the end. 5. What was the most difficult part about completing this piece and why? The elephant, or hand drawing. I didn't know where to put it. 6. What did you learn from this piece I learned a little of what I really like doing with Photoshop
