For my post I did our current project. My article includes Marcus Vick. I took another body of a football player and used an every day picture of Vick to photoshop his head onto the body. It is not complete and I am using a gold football to put in his hands. This will better explain his personality for the project
I did a monster design for my blog post. I used a photo of monster energy and used A liquid effect to make it look like the drink spilling out every where. Then I used a Shatter effect to give it a better more unique effect. I used blending options to blend and morph 3 different layers to make the image. I faded the letters in the Monster font making it appear as if the the explosion is providing light onto the letters and Monster logo.
For my blog post I decided to Photoshop a space seen. I first took a picture of a ball and added affects to it to make it appear as a full size planet. I then got a plain background of stars, and added some blue stars using another photo and blended the layers together using the screen affect. I then took a picture of another planet and erased the planet and took the ring, but modifying it to fit the look of my design. I used the overlay affect to blend the ring of the planet together with the planet itself. The end result was very satisfying.
I chose to do the Illustration Friday topic for my blog post. The word was savour, and I immediately thought of something sweet or sour or good tasting like candy. My design was very simplistic in that it was someone eating candy and sucking the flavor out of the candy. To show that happening to the viewer, I made the cheeks on the person squished together. I then made some lollipops with very simple shapes. The box of candy, I used the extrude and Bevel effect to make it seem three dimensional. I made the colors very bright and colorful to keep the viewers attention to the idea of the design. I then wrote the word on the side with a font I felt matched the design.
