Non-Destructive Image Adjustments

Image
I learned how to change the way the lighting of the image changes when you edit the vibrance of it and how you can change the saturation to match the saturation or just however you want it. I learned how changing the Hue of an image can change the saturation on the image on a specific color in the image and the lightness of the image. I learned how to change the Hue and Saturation on an image to either make it brighter or darker.  The other images wouldn't upload but for those I learned to edit the hue and saturation as I did with the flowers and the image I ad selected for myself to edit I learned to mix and match the image adjustments to make an image fit more to how you like it.

Robot Final

 My process for this was finding any items that I was familiar with or had seen before like toys and utilities. What I learned through making this was a fun way to put anything I'm thinking of into something different. I thought this was a fun experience since it was a calmer project. Once I got to the background part I was struggling a little bit and I didn't even think I would find a good one. 

Image File Formats

  Raster (bitmap) jpg - compress files significantly to reduce file format while still maintaining image quality png - used for lossless image compression, it has also almost completely replaced GIF gif - it is used for basic images that appear mainly on the internet bmp - display images independently from, devices psd - used in Photoshop to distribute pictures while maintaining quality tiff - used to store raster graphics and image information heic - a space saving format that uses hevc to compress images psb - used for storing debugging information about a program Camera raw - an app required to edit raw images using photoshop Raster Editors adobe photoshop - adobe software. application for image editing and photo retouching that can be used on Windows and MACOS Photopea - web based photo and graphics editor, used for image editing, making illustrations and even web design gimp - often used for making logos, and making pictures bigger and smaller  procreate - raster graphics...

300ppi vs 72 ppi resolution

  1. What is the difference between 300ppi and 72ppi? The difference between 330ppi and 72ppi is the amount of pixels used to produce the image. 330ppi is also the resolution for bigger images in order to have them be high quality. 72ppi is the resolution for smaller images so that the image looks high quality while not changing size because the image becoming bigger would make the quality of the image lower. With bigger images they need a higher res so that they don't look grainy and pixelated. 2. Why is that important for the graphic designer doing print projects? Knowing the resolution for a print project is important so that you can print the images in high quality because knowing the image size can also help find the resolution and ppi for that image so that when it is printed it won't be low res or up to the standards of the project. 3. Why is that important for the web designer doing websites? It's important for web designers doing websites because they can't hav...

Museum of Illustration Reflection

Image
 During the trip we had made our own book covers. If I had to grade my book cover I'd say it was very good since I worked off of my own creativity with help of a guide. My book cover design in my opinion was well made and I definitely put a lot of thought into it. I think that the museum was fun and the work there was definitely inspiring and I really enjoyed the comics on the second floor. My favorite illustration was one on the second floor of bugs, one of them was a kid, the other two were the parents, the mom's head was cut off, and the father told his son that they were just wrestling too hard.

 My brush technique for this assignment was sloppy, some space was barely filled in. I think with time it will get better so I can work efficiently and accurately enough. I feel that it was definitely sloppy and could use some touch ups. The brush was a little hard to use since I was using a mouse which isn't my ideal tool for using the brush tool. I think that because of the mouse the brush was very unsteady and it left a lot of space empty. I feel i can improve on using the brush tool with time.

Daniel Blend Modes

  I learned how to duplicate layers during this assignment. I learned how to change the blend of colors in images. I think that this could be used in other assignments involving real people like doing portraits of a person. I think it could also be used in tasks involving animals too and for posters to make them more interesting. I wouldn't really know what else could go with these different blends but I feel that anything could work if you can do it right and still make it appealing to peoples eyes and really hook their attention to it.
