Reflection 2

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.
