             Collage Reflection

    My strongest area was how I applied filters to make the colors all blue-ish and fit a theme. I wanted my design to look kind of like a blue print and I used the filters to accomplish this. However, I can improve making sure all the pictures I used can be detected.  I can do this by rearranging the placement of the images.

                 The easy part of this was applying filters to fit the style of my collage. The difficult part was finding pictures that represent me, and also trying to figure out the placement of the pictures.

                   I used the magic wand tool to get rid of the whiten background behind the images. I demonstrated the goal by representing myself in my own unique fashion. In this example I was represented by a blue-print like collage which included images that I felt represent me. If I could redo this activity I would rearrange my pictures so that they could all be fully shown and so that you can actually tell what each picture is.

My strongest area of the work was seeing how the lighting affects the shadows, and taking the photos. I was good at adjusting my model in different places to get different vantage points. I could improve on lining up the backgrounds because this was a constant issue. The program is still kind of confusing because you have to tell it what to do for every single step and if you forget one thing then it's a mess. The easy part was taking the pictures and repositioning my model.
           This activity was a little bit of a struggle for me because I am not at all familiar with Photoshop, so it was annoying because I asked a million questions. I used the layers to be able to merge the pictures into one.
      I demonstrated the goal by making a picture out of five other pictures. The product was cool because it shows Abby moving about. When I am more familiar with the program I will be able to complete the assignment quicker and with less questions hopefully. Overall I learned that you literally do have to tell Photoshop every single move.

          My strongest area of work is seeing how the colors go with each other. I have a good eye for color contrast. I could improve on getting familiar with Photoshop since I do not really know how to use the program. The program is kind of confusing and I need more practice so I can get used to using it. The easy part was designing the actual letter design and seeing what looked the best. I am good at knowing if something is cute or not.
           This activity was a little bit of a struggle for me because I have no idea how to use Photoshop, so this limited me in the assignment. I used the layers to be able to easily undo my mistakes. I also used the opacity effect.
      I demonstrated the goal by making a design of all the letters. If I could do this activity again I would use more effects and make my design more complex and cool to look at. When I am more familiar with the program I will be able to use more effects and I will know how to make the design more interesting and less basic, and beginner level.
