Description: Students are to demonstrate their knowledge of using Photoshop tools including masking tools, image resizing and filters. They must use the horses background image and then bring in a minimum of 4 images from the web to create a fantasy composite image that tells a story. Composition, masking, detail, perspective and other basic design technique will be included in the grading. Files must be saved as native .psd and also as a .jpg. Students will upload their final piece as a .jpg to their ePortfolios on their Tech Lit page or as a page/kid to Tech Lit page (their choice but stick with one method for all assignments) with the assignment order number, and with a detailed assignment description (can be copied and pasted from here) and reflection restating what they did, how they did it, and how they feel about their work.
Reflection: In this project we had to bring in at least four pictures to make a story. My story is that a leprechaun has come to the horses and a llama escaped from a petting zoo down north. First I brought in the horses background picture. Then, I changed the sky to make it different. After that I brought in the picture of a llama and a leprechaun to dance on the llamas head. Once that was done I brought in pictures that related to the leprechaun, then I saved it as a Jpeg. I added media to my post and got the description from Mr.Schiff’s blog. I think I did good on this project and I had a fun time doing it. I am excited to get to learn a brand new application to use.
