Exhibit Project

This was our second Photoshop project and it was a freeform project

For an exhibit project, we had to take 9 pictures from the web of any singular theme across time and utilize whatever we have to create a poster for an imaginary exhibit.

My theme, obviously, was automobiles.

I used the polygonal lasso tool to create the grey borders. Grey because it reminded me of roads and I thought it would be interesting to incorporate that in there.

I cropped each photo differently, emphasizing a difference between the old and the new. I realized soon that adding a small border in each of them would be best so I used that to my advantage.

The headline had to stand out so I used the outer glow effect on it. Notice that I used green and red as well as yellow of the sub-headliner on the top left, further emphasizing an automobile theme.

The essay was hard to incorporate into border but I found a way to fix it eventually.

And that's basically it. I personally think this stands out like a sore thumb, not in a good way too, since the pictures were arranged in a strange manner. However, I was trying to experiment and I thought why not? If it's to stand out, I think it'd be better that way.

Zoo Project

This is the first of many I shall post in this blog.

Basically, we had a project for a zoo card and we had to choose from a multitude of animal pictures provided to while utilizing the border tool.

I thought the bear was cool and it emphasized the title because it was looking directly at it so I made that my biggest picture to catch the eye.

The bottom four pictures were arranged in an interesting manner so that the farthest two are facing the center and the inner two are facing the viewer.

The font was kind of interesting and I thought it matched up the theme so I utilized it to emphasize a zoo theme.

Basically, I think this was great but I know I could have improved further with the text.

I hope you find this work intriguing. ^-^
