I think my best shot is the hand because the paint on the hand is very beautiful lokking.

Well if you look at my contact sheet it would be the photos of the two girls because they all blurred and I didn't take them from a good angle.

I'd give myself 8 out of 10 because I took way more that 30 photos, edited the photos (a bit different than usual if you noticed the sparkles) The models were great! but i wouldnt give 10 because of the amount of blurred photos i took :(.

Portraits

Broad

butterfly

I think my split looks the best out of them all because the split isn't out of focus or blurry. Also the colors look beautiful together on her.

The one labeled loop looks the weakest to me. Its blurry and the model wasn't very expressive and refused to pose.

Album

1. What is the best thing about your art work? Why?

I think having the ufo idea and the comic frame one is also good. Comic frame shows how i enjoy comics and the ufo idea is cool because it shows abducting things lol.

Not making it more crazy and randomly have things placed everywhere.

I used text tool, move tool, blending modes, opacity, text tool, and even the 3D option for the text. Eyedropper, brush tools, including downloaded one that makes smoke affects, eraser tool ect.

5. Explain how were you able to meet the objectives (GOALS) of the assignment? **THE GOAL CHANGES EACH LESSON. **SEE THE EQ ON THE ASSIGNMENT AND ANSWER THAT FOR THIS QUESTION.

sdcdI was able to do the following i believe:

-Must use 13 images representing your identity (may be from the internet or you can bring in your own)

-Must use a filter

-Must use a blend mode

-Must use Text somewhere (can be a quote, name, date, etc.)

-Must use a paint brush to add an effect

- Must use opacity

-There should be no 4 corners visible on the pictures.  Must be cut with the selection tools.

-Image Must blend and flow together. DO NOT Copy/Paste a collage. 

6. What was easy about this assignment? Why?

Just downloading photos and added them to my album picture. Downloading them isn't difficult and moving them onto my picture isn't difficult either.

7. What was difficult about this assignment? Why?

Picking quotes and images that represent myself or like. I couldn't think of any quotes and I dont really know much about myself lol.

8. If you could do this assignment again, what would you do differently?

I'd might not do the comic frame idea to make mines more random and pictures randomly placed and nice to look at.

9. On a scale of 1-10 (10 being your best effort) how would you rate your effort in this project?  Why would you give yourself that rating?

I'd give myself an 8 because it took me way to long to finish this and I feel like everyone else looks better but I put in an lot of effort, I think I even have more than 13 images :D.

BLUR MOTION

1. Which picture is the best shot of this assignment? Why

     I think my best shot was my second stop motion picture. I love how u can see the surface of the water were the dye hit the liquid and were the other dye has fallen into the water.

2. Which picture is the weakest shot of this assignment?  Why?

I think my weakest shot is the first blur motion picture. I feel like i didn't stand still enough when i took the pictures so it looks a little off and not as unique movements. I also didn't edit it very much.

3. How can the weakest image be improved on in future shoots?

Edit it to look a bit better or just take a whole completely new photo.

4. Did you use Photoshop, Lightroom, or both?  What tools in the programs did you use to edit the pictures? 

I used Photoshop. I used crop to eliminate dead space and edited the levels and colors of the picture.

5. Explain how were you able to meet the objectives (GOALS) of the assignment? **THE GOAL CHANGES EACH LESSON. **SEE THE EQ ON THE ASSIGNMENT AND ANSWER THAT FOR THIS QUESTION.

I was able to meet the objective of the goal by taking plenty of photos that show blur and stop motion.

6. What was easy about this assignment? Why?

It was easy to edit the image.

7. What was difficult about this assignment? Why?

It was difficult to stand still while taking blur motion photo and getting more than a couple photos that were not similar.

8. If you could do this assignment again, what would you do differently?

Id see if my mom can buy me glow sticks and help me take more blur motion photos.

9. On a scale of 1-10 (10 being your best effort) how would you rate your effort in this project?  Why would you give yourself that rating?

    Id give myself an 8 for how quickly and good the project came out when working on it for two days but also because i turned it in late because i was a couple projects behind.
