What's On Your Mind

What’s On Your Mind is the name of this project. The objective is to display what you generally think about by making an image of objects coming out of your head.  The objects are for symbolizing your thoughts. I like making things in general and I think about various projects all the time. My favorite projects always have do to with technology so I created an image with Photoshop to displayed example of scientific and engineering achievements coming out of my head. I added a background that fits the theme and to top it off I added some diagrams of a computer circuit and the structure of a molecule and my name with a caption. After I got images to use from the internet I had some trouble cutting them out from there background to add to my images but other than that the project went smoothly. I’m satisfied with the finished product.  



I made two versions of an image for a “silhouette design” project. This is the second version and it’s the one I choose to turn in for the project. The objective was to past a three pictures of you onto a custom background in Photoshop. Make two of them silhouettes and use different brush designs to fill in the background and the silhouettes. Another requirement was to choose a color scheme and apply it correctly. After I added the pictures of me and made the two into silhouettes I downloaded Photoshop brushes and fill in the background with them and the gradient tool. I also used the gradient tool to fill in the silhouettes. The color scheme that I first choose was fine but it looked to colorful to me so I made a deferent version that is black and white with some blue. I think the second one could be better, but I’m happy with it.

The top one is the first version and the bottom is the second.



Famous for 15 Minutes

This is not much more than practice with altering colors with Photoshop. This is for a project called “Famous for 15 Minutes”.  The objective was to use a image of yourself and change its color in four different copies to fit specified color scheme that my teach presented. Though I had to use certain types of color schemes I got to choose the exact colors. It was a rather boring project that didn’t take much time or work, but I learned from it.

Bottle Cap

Here is an image I did for a class project.  It’s designed to be printed and pasted in the inside of a bottle cap. Originally my teacher expected me to get images on the internet and then put them together as my own image but I drew the whole thing on Photoshop instead. It wasn’t a difficult process to draw. It did take a lot of erasing and redrawing because I had trouble deciding how I wanted it to look. The objective of this project is to design an image to be printed and pasted in the inside of a bottle cap. The requirements are that it needs to resemble a heart, it needs a banner, and it needs to say something on the banner. I could have came up with something more clever than “Friends” but I made it to give to a friend so I wanted to keep it simple with its original meaning.
