Some Kittens

 

 

This wasn't an official class project, I decided to play around with photoshop a bit. The image on top is the original kitten photo, and below I messed with effects and smart images.

Ad Replication

For this project I chose the ad with the wood and screw because I knew it was a challenge. The ad above is my version, the one below is the original. I found is simple to change the tone of the wood color and change the saturation, but the most difficult part was manipulating the wood. I used the liquefy tool to twist and mold the wood, though unless done very slowly and delicately it is hard to master. I used the sharpen brush to sharpen up the lines in the wood a bit and refine the lines, and the burn and dodge tools helped me brighten or darken areas if necessary. The magnetic lasso allowed me to copy and paste the logo from the original ad and place it onto my own. I will be working with the liquefy tool more until I can master it.

Strange Fruit

 

The world would be a much better place if square apples existed. Kids can play with them like legos and then eat them when done.

Cute Kitten

I got very bored and made this. Enjoy!
