Somewhere

 


This project required us to take images of ourselves and place them in a movie scene. I chose a scene from Caddyshack, one of my favorite movies. When working on this project, I had a really fun time placing myself within the scene.

The project required a lot of masking, which was something I was familiar with. To place myself within the scene I masked myself behind the bag, using an image of myself at a caddying event this past fall. The tough part for me was matching the lighting. The image I used was relatively bright, and with my pale skin it was difficult to match with the scene. To match the grain between the images I used a film grain overlay, which allowed me to match them pretty well.

Overall, I enjoyed this project a lot. It is relatively similar to some of the work I have done before. What makes my work successful was the ability to mask myself into the frame, over another character, as well as how I was able to match the lighting pretty well.

    Hi Ben,
    I really like this project. This is tough to achieve because it looks like an older film but the way you made edits is really well done!

    I think you did an amazing job blending into the scene! I think the placement is cool because it looks like you were actually there. Overall I think you did a great job.

Photoshop homework 2

  1. I think this would be difficult to photoshop myself into. With all of the colors, and light trails, I would need to properly light myself to make it look like I am there. Along with properly exposing my photo, having to light myself with the light trails would be difficult. 2. This image made me laugh and remember the funny memes from when Obama was in office. It reminded me of the funny images we got to see all the time, and made me think about the possibility of photoshopping myself into an image with them. 3. This image made me laugh. I thought this was a funny way to fix his question. It also reminded me of my fear of losing my hair, and not wanting people to see it. Overall this one made me laugh a lot. 4. I would like to recreate this illusion. This is because I have done food photography before, and had to create my own make-shift studio, like this one. I enjoyed the process of creating the setting for the food to be displayed on, it takes a lot of creativity and patience t

Digital Media Portfolio

Below is the portfolio I created with the works from this year. Overall, I had a fun time creating these projects, and enjoyed the process of putting them together into one document. The portfolio was made in InDesign, and was relatively straightforward to make. This semester, I learned a lot about the different softwares, and furthered my skills in each. I enjoyed learning new things about graphic design, and hopefully I am able to use these new skills in the future.
