My pig assignment was very basic. I used a picture of Cristiano Ronaldo because i like soccer so I thought I should do something based around it. This was a perfect picture because it fit well with the pig head i found. the head was tilted so it fit well to sort of blend in with the body to the pig head. Secondly, I changed the jersey lettering which before spelled out AIG, I changed it to PIG to spell pig which I thought was creative in a way. Lastly it looked a little plain so I added a filter called "Poster Edging" to give it a more rough look to the background and give it more feel. I think it did a good job because it really completed the overall photo.

Photographic Triptych

For image number one, the original photo was a floor tile in the main foyer. I used the magnetic lassoo tool to give my pictures rigged edges so they'd be different and in my opinion, I think they look pretty cool. The filter used on this image was called "Plaster". The second image is a bulletin board, originally it was blue but I changed the contrast to darken the color. I cropped it so the glare of the flash was near the bottom adding a little extra to the picture. The filter I used is called "Glowing Edges". Lastly, for my third image it's Graham's sweater, the texture and design really caught my attention so I chose to use it. The original picture had a lot of texture and feel to it to begin with so all i did was add a filter called "Water Paper".

DJ Deadmau5 - "MDMA"

The main colour of the CD Cover was green, I added the green lasers in the background because it gives the overall image more life and it describes the atmosphere of the type of music. The mouse in the top left corner gave more feel and blended in well due to it was around the same type of green as the lasers. At first the laptop has a white bright screen which made it the focal point, something I didn't want. So I chose a color that would blend in more and not attract so much attention. I added the DJ with all of his turntables and equipment. I chose to use a picture of him with a blue mouse dead so the attention would be directed to it, as it stands out due to the fact its blue. Lastly, The Title of the CD was added, "MDMA" and the name of the DJ. My intent was to use green, but a different tone for it to stand out.

Poetry Assignment Cover

For this assignment, originally there was another idea to have a different theme but in the end it didn't quite fit and workout. I finished another cover that was much better and fit the point of the assignment well. Unfortunately I forgot to save it. so this came to my mind, its really simple, but in a way I kind of like how the two halves blend in to one another. the light blue font was picked so it could stand out from the darker type of blue in the sky. I'm not very happy with the overall result of the cover, it wasn't what i pictured it to be, but it was better than to not hand anything in at all.

Sharieff Peru #13 QB - OLOL Crusaders

Original Photograph

This was the original photo, there was a lot of glares which were taken out when it was transformed into a gray scale. The picture turned out good due to the lighting, angle the picture was taken at, and the pose.

Black & White

The main picture was turned into a gray scale. The Nike visor created some glare around Sharieff's eyes so the stamp tool was use to eliminate the glares that were really noticeable and interfered with the clarity of his face. The pose worked really well because its very athletic and overall a nice picture.

Comic Book Style

The filter's work really well because there a whole variation of colors and mixes of effects to make the picture look good and really make it stand out. I chose this comic book effect because the small black dots gave his skin a lot more texture and added more. the jersey looks very sharp and has a strong color along with the helmet.

Neon Outline Style

This one is my favourite because Sharieff's eyes really stand out with a very creepy look to them. the outline to everything makes the picture very creative and unusual. Again the jersey worked great because it shows alot of texture with the little holes and the different color underneath where the undershirt shows through. The face mask shows a lot of detail and the variation of colors makes it very interesting to look at and completes the picture.

Fade Yellow/Blue

This was the first picture I experimented with and it turned out pretty good. I chose yellow and blue to represent our school colors which are blue and yellow. The blue really stand out on top of the yellow without loosing any detail, and the mix of the jersey with the blue and yellow underneath worked well. I was surprised by the skin texture where the light glares show. I would of liked to improve the helmet because it looks blended in and a little lost with the background.
