My Photoshop Projects

 Project #1- Layering and Opacity Levels
For the first project, we worked on how to work on all separate layers, as we did with the text and compass ver the school. Also, we worked on how to use the opacity too, so that you could see the school behind the compass and text.
Project #2- Hues and Clone Stamp
From a picture of a normal monarch butterfly, we added color to the wings by changing the hues and then added 'motion' to the wings using the clone stamp tool. For the longest time, I couldn't figure out the clone stamp tool, but after I used it correctly, it was easy.
 Project #3- Text Masks and Gradients
Taking a picture of ONW, the same one as the first project, actually. We layered a text mask over it and adjusted the font size to make it stretch to the image, selecting the outside so that you can see the school in the letters. On the outside, we added a gradient. This one was really fun to use.
Project #4- Taking Objects Out, Magic Lasso and Blending Layers
At first, this project was very difficult for me. Once I figured out how to remove the unwanted parts of the picture though, it was much easier. We used the clone stamp to remove the cars and light posts out of the picture and just show the school. Then we used the magic lasso to cut out a picture of the raven and follow the lines correctly, pasting it on the picture of ONW. Then we added pictures around the school on top and adjusting the opacity and shape of them. Then we cropped out some of the grass and added a border. It took a while, but I'm happy with the finished project.
