For this assignment we had to create a visual of what you perceive yourself as from outside your body. I decided to split myself down the middle as a half angel have devil. I am told by not only my family but sometimes friends how much I resembled my zodiac sign, Gemini. This means I have the split personality of a devil and an angel. I had a lot of fun being able to use all the skills we learned for this assignment. It was nice being able to take free range with it and it was nice to focus on this for awhile, tweaking every little detail. For the devil portion I used the techniques from B&W to color assignment to change my eye, lips and jacket to enhance the dark vision. I tweaked the colors and outer glow/drop shadow on each side to match the emotion. I think this piece directly resembles myself from the outside in what I see in myself depending on my mood. I really enjoyed the GIF aspect and changing the amount of colors and dithering because it totally changed the look of the...

For this assignment we had to take 6 photos of ourselves and combine them into one image. We had to make sure the camera did not move while taking the photos so we could mesh them together. We had to interact or make a connection with ourselves in the photo. I had a lot of fun doing this and seeing the end product. I wish I stood by the fridge instead of by the stove for one of my poses, however I am still very happy with the way this turned out. It was overall a fun assignment and I love using photoshop and learning new techniques.

For this assignment we had to place ourselves in a movie scene. For my movie I picked the popular Netflix movie To All the Boys I've Loved Before. I love this movie and I love the ending scene in it which is what I picked to place myself in. I love doing assignments like this because I love playing with the colors and trying to make it match to the scene. I had so much fun with this and I am so particular and detailed when it comes to cutting myself out of an image. It was nice to sit and focus on it and be in the zone. Attached below are the files of myself in the movie scene and the original picture from the movie.

For this assignment we had to take a black and white image and change it to different color palettes. For my photo I picked one from my dog Teddy and I at an event in my hometown called Dog Days. I will attach the original photo that I altered into black and white. For my color palettes I chose triad, analogous, and square. I had a lot of fun with this assignment and I think my favorite is the square colors. I think the orange I used for my skin does not look super orange and my purple eyes glisten and look good with the rest of the colors.   (Original photo I changed to black and white)  ( Analogous )  ( Triad)  (Square)
