Project 1 Layers
|
The objective of this project is to obtain a better understanding of Photoshop Layers by creating the layers of a sandwich on a plate. Utilizing layers effectively is a key skill to have in order to create efficient and fully editable graphics. If layers are not used effectively, it can be detrimental to the success of your project.
You have been hired to create a graphic design for Tom's Diner. The owner wants a BLT sandwich with sides as a graphic for the diner. The owner has supplied you with an image of a plate from the diner, as well as images of the ingredients for the sandwich. You are to follow the directions given by the project manager to complete the project for the target audience. There is a PDF tutorial located to the left to help you complete this project. However, since this is the first project we will be completing in Photoshop, we will walk through this procedure together as a class. Remember as you look for other items on-line to add to your sandwich to make sure to find high resolution images with a solid color background. When you are finished, save the file (in .psd format) in photo128 folder, in your grade folder. Call the file yourname_sandwich , remember if the project is not saved as your real name it will not be marked. |
Now we are going to learned how to precisely add color to a black and white image, let's apply that knowledge in a fun and personal setting. In this project, you are going to paint several renditions of a picture of yourself and arrange it in a grid. A famous artist that used this technique to develop pop art advertising is Andy Warhol. We are going to mimic this technique to create an original, personal piece of art.
First you will you need to take your portrait. Be creative with your pose so your project will be appealing and interesting! You will apply a filter inside Photoshop to make it look like a black and white sketch, then use your selection and coloring techniques to create the Warhol effect. You want to have a minimum of 3 different colors per box. Remember to use bright colors! Remember to save the project as yourname_warhol in the class folder! |

Adobe Photoshop is a very powerful image editor that can bring life to otherwise dull and unexciting photos. Using the tools and features of the software, a photographer can take his or her pictures to the next level and produce professional-looking images.
In this project, you will learn how to use the selection and coloring tools of Photoshop to add a splash of color to a black and white photo. The overall goal is to bring a dull photo back to life by accurately coloring the components to make them seem life-like.
Choose one of the black and white images on the right and use the refined selection tools of Photoshop to carefully select particular areas and add color. Be sure to add each color on its own layer just in case you need to make adjustments later on. Leaving several colors on the same layer (especially the background layer) can result in you having to start your project all over again!
