Photo Aging

     The photo above was edited to look aged.  I first made a regular image black and white.  Next, I added a new layer and added a sepia color to it, then faded the color so that the black and white image also had a sepia tone to it.  Next, I put the photo on a white background (which cannot be seen here) and made sure it was tilted a little to look like it was hand made.  The last thing I did was use the eraser and choose the brush that made the wrips on the bottom of the image and on the right side.  Then I used a brush with the tape brush and added tape on the edges.

Shapes

     Over our winter break, we had an assignment to take photos of things with shapes.  Then, we edited five of them in camera raw to make them look perfect.  These are the five I edited.

     Once I had nicely edited the photos above, I made a collage out of some of the photos I took for the assignment.  To do this, all I did was create a new document and resize and arrange the pictures I wanted to use in the collage.

Disproportional

     The point of this project was to make images that are disproportional.  This image I used the free transform tools to change the sizes of the kitten and the yarn.  The yarn was made to look much bigger than the kitten instead of the other way around like it is in reality.

Hands

     This project was done using images that we took.  The point of the pictures was to take images of people's hands.  After we had uploaded the pictures, we edited them to make them look better.  There were four different edits that I did.  The one shown above is the cool edit which makes the image look blue toned. To do this, I had to add an adjustment layer, choose color balance, and then change the settings.  There are different settings for each photo.  The next two are a warm filter and an emerald filter.  Warm makes photos look red or yellow and emerald is a mix between warm and cool, it looks blue and green.

     The black and white looking image above has a gradient map edit.  I just added a new adjustment layer and chose gradient map instead of color balance.

David Hockney

     This project is called "David Hockney" because we were supposed to recreate a David Hockney style photo.  A David Hockney style photo uses many different images of the same thing put together to look like the one scene all together.  To do this on the computer, we had to choose an image we liked, and then break it apart.  To break it apart we first selected part of the image, made it black, added a white background to them, and added a few extra layers.  After that I just copied the layers I used to make the polaroid looking image to make it look as it does above.  I made two photos for this project.

Movie

     For this project, we made a video instead of a photo.  First, we chose a photographer who we really liked, and saved at least ten of our favorite images taken by them.  Then we used the Windows Movie Maker to add the photos to a movie, add credits, and music to go along with the video.  The video above is the finished product.
