Around the World Recipe Book
Candy Bar
In the Candy Bar project, I used the magic wand, eraser, and quick selection tools to help select out the parts of images I wanted. I used a gradient tool to give the entire background a fade from red to green (representing Christmas). I used free transform to edit and movie images, text box and text orientation tools to get the text boxes where and how I wanted them. In turn with that, I used fonts that I downloaded, and finally, I used a downloaded brush to give it the frost look on the front, along with the color dropper to get those colors I needed again.
FINAL REFLECTION
What was your favorite assignment and why?
My favorite assignment had to be the calendar. I loved how unified it felt, and I really enjoyed learning about all of the weird national holidays that exist. I was extremely proud of it.
What was your most challenging assignment and why?
My most challenging assignment was the recipe pages. It was the first project where inspiration had not stricken me, and I hated having to cram all of the instructions into the small page.
Which assignment was your most successful and why?
I'd have to say my favorite was also my most successful because the calendar was so unified and actually looked professional to me. I worked very hard, and I feel that hard work is what ultimately makes it successful.
Do you think you will use any of the skills and tools from this class in the future? Why or why not?
I definitely think I will use these tools and skills. I like photography, and these photoshop tools will be helpful in creating really cool images. I would also like to purchase photoshop and do really silly things with it, so, I will get a lot of use out of the stuff I've learned in the future.
