Hello my lovely students!  I am not with you today (*sniff*), but that does NOT mean you shouldn't be PRODUCTIVE!!!

You have a few options.

Number 1--finish any blog articles that you have not done.  The Mini Assignments (selection tools, transformation, and 6 layers), and the enhanced photograph.  This is the option you want to take to CATCH UP IF YOU NEED TO!

Number 2--Make serious plans about who/where you plan on shooting tomorrow.  We will be shooing PORTRAITS and converting them to BLACK AND WHITE.  Write a blog article about your plan, where you want to shoot, what the lighting conditions will be. What will be in the background, etc.

Number 3--check this link: http://www.myjanee.com/tuts/filter/filter.htm  (I found it at home, so I'm hoping it isn't blocked--if it is, do a google search for photoshop filter tutorials.)  Play around with filters on your photographs that you have taken so far.  There are a lot of fun artistic filters that do cool things to photos.  The liquify filter is probably the most fun.

Be good for the sub please!  Show him or her your work.

Your first blog entry will probably look similar to this one (although maybe without such a tall subject).

Upload your 1st photo to your blog.  Remember that the LARGEST SIDE should be 640 pixels.

Answer the following questions in your blog article:

1. What is the most successful part of your photograph?

2. What is the least successful part of your photograph?

3. If you were to shoot a similar photograph in the future, what would you do differently?

You can add all of your images into one single blog article, or you can choose to put them each in separate articles. 

For each article, include the image with the following comments:

Describe how you created the image.

Tell about what tools you used in Photoshop.

Explain if there is anything you could have done better, or improved for next time.

Describe what you think you could do in the future, given what you have learned in this class so far.

 This blog post should be longer and more in depth than most of your previous posts. You have now had a full semester of photography class, so please show what you’ve learned by writing thoughtful, intelligent blog articles.

Please take this survey before you complete your final:

Blogging Survey

Check out this blog article by IVAN in Cartooning and Animation.  His self portrait turned out fantastic!

1) On a scale of 1-10, I feel my Rotoscope turned out amazing. I'll give it a 9 because apparently it doesn't look like me. When we first took the pic, this is exactly what I had in mind. Photoshop is raw!!

2) The most successful part of my Rotoscope is the lightning all over the place. It was basically my background.

3) The color of my clothes could use some rendering. I went with simple gray and black colors which don't make me look powerful or superhero like.

4) It would be a lot easier because I would not spend as much time using the pen outline. I'm getting quicker and used to the pen tool.
