This week in photoshop we learned how to restore and colorize damaged photos, save different types of ways for uploading your art for certain purposes, and now we are in the process of learning how to design an event flyer. When we were learning Illustrator I liked the videos better than the book, but now for Photoshop, I like the book better than the videos. One of the tutorials we did was called Ena the Ballerina. It was kind of an event advertisement I guess. I really like the way it turned out, though.
On Wednesday, I wasn’t in class for too long. That morning I was out for homebound, then I went to Socastee for the junior class ring ceremony rehearsal, then I came for a little, then I left school to go to counseling. During my short appearance in Digital Communications I attempted to brainstorm for my thumbnail sketches for my candy bar wrapper. I was not very successful. Brainstorming and doing thumbnails are my least favorite part about designing things in the major. I hate doing that. That and blogging are hands down my least favorite things overall about the major. And right now. I’m blogging about thumbnails, so thats two of the worst things, PUT TOGETHER! Wow, how knew that was possible?!
I think I have decided to make my candy bar wrapper project dedicated to my best friends Brooke, Sterling, and Paola. There are four of us in our group, just like there are four pieces of a king size Kit Kat, which is the bar I have chosen. Just like the pieces on the bar, even though they came together from the same place, they can be separated, but they will always belong together. It is kind of a stretch, but it makes sense to me, so it’s fine. A long distance friendship bar. Great idea.
I am so excited for this weekend because Paola and I are going to Night of a Thousand Candles and we are going to take some pictures that we can edit next week.
