Friday January 11th

Today we will work on 

let's play around in PS with pics from the internet

make sure>>>>>>>>>>>>

CONVERT your HEIC files to JPG here
What format is your IPHONE shooting in?

Your photo for the fence project is DUE MONDAY!
-I will be checking and you will either have a 100% or a 0% in the class..
-25 photo minimum
-I would recommend uploading your photos to drive BEFORE class. its just easier that way. Otherwise don't forget your SD card or camera so you can turn in your work!
-You will be creating a contact sheet like the image below to prove that you took all 25+ photos.

You created something called a contact sheet to turn in your photos. Contact sheets go as far back as black and white film. A contact sheet is a good way of looking at your entire shoot at once to decide what photos you want to process.

Photoshop tools we will be using for this project include
-Basic editing. Contrast/exposure/ levels ect..
-layers
-renaming layers
-Layer masks
-Brushes-- Color picker, arrow and change to black and white
-the bracket keys that look like this [    ] next to the letter p on your keyboard will help to make your brush bigger or smaller.

Today in Class
- use images online to practice layer masks.
-You can upload your practice to your extra work if you wish
-Finish your about me!

Step by Step Directions for Photoshop
-Open your fence photo in Photoshop
-Rename the layer FENCE
-Open the photo that you want to "shine though the holes" the zoomed in pic
-Pull your tabs down so the photos are loose in Photoshop
-Drag your zoomed photo on top of the fence photo
-At the bottom of the layers panel there is a box with a circle in it---that is the layer mask
-Hold down the ALT key and press the layer mask
-A black box should show up next to your top layer. The top layer will also disappear
-Use the white brush to erase and use the black brush to add back.
