Popart

I took a photo of myself in Photo Booth and then dragged it into Photo shop and edited to look like it is now with all the different colors.




For this assignment I learned some of the basics of Photo Shop and how to use them.  I learned how to crop my image and then copy it onto a new page.  Then I learned how to add different colors to my pictures and change the color to whatever I wanted it to be.  Finally, I then learned how to upload my photo onto my blog so everyone can see it.

Composition Assignment

For this assignment we learned 11 different forms of photography.  We then brought back all of our photos that we took for then and picked our top 3 for each type of photo and uploaded it off the computer and into our server space.  From there we uploaded all our best pictures onto photo shop and put our best picture for each type of photography into a folder.  We then took the folder and made it into a slide show on blogger.

Types of Composition
1.  Rule of Thirds " Jacob looking at his camera"
2. Texture "Bark of the tree"
3. Pattern " Lines on Construction Sign"
4. Depth of Field " Picture of Megan with school in the background"
5. Symmetry " Tennis Net Lines"
6. Lines " Electric School Sign Lines"
7. Framing " Jacob in a cabinet"
8. Perspective " Looking down the stairway"
9. Balance " Jacob and my Shadow on the ground, and the ground's color"
10. Space "The sky"
11. Color " The colors of the cups and their markers"










During the composition assignment, i learned how to take pictures with different styles, like rule of thirds, framing, perspective, etc.  I also learned how to upload photos from my camera onto my computer.  Also i learned how to edit pictures in photo shop and then make them into a slide show on blogger.
