minimalist
The reason I chose this project is because it looked challenging and fun. The steps I did to make this was basically using burn and brush tools to create a burn old and blood effect.
gameposter
the fonts I used I chose because I felt they were the best game fonts I could find in time. And the tools I used were masking, hue and saturation, patch tool, and the brush. My feelings of the project are that it was fun and very entertaining also that it was very creative. I mean by that, that it brought forth the creative juices to ready us for Graphic Design II.
Fix Tools
what I did in the steps was very simple and easy to follow. But I had trouble reading them to their entirety and actually had to start all over after reading most of it. So the barn was copying one door to another was very fun.
here are the sites for the images

Goals
Goal #1 – I want to better my understanding of the gradients in Adobe Illustrator so that I can make sprites.
Goal #2 – I want to better my Photoshop skills with my pictures so that I can make it professionally in the real world.
Goal #3 – I want to better my organization skills so that I can present myself as a neat person.
These goals are not only important for me because I want them to happen but because they are goals that better myself and get me ready for the road ahead of me. Goal one is more for fun than for profession but I do have a limit on how long I have on it is three weeks. The second and third goals both have a two week limit, because I feel that I can get them done in that amount of time.

I used curves and levels alot and the most difficult part of the project was the lighting i spent three days on what the teacher solved in two minutes love photoshop great app but hard to a beginner.
Old poster
The tools I used for this project was mostly the brush tool, layers, and free transform, but I already know how to use most of the functions it taught me. Mostly it told me to create layer masks and use the brush tool to reveal some of what is under the mask.The link for this project are here.

Color enhancements projects
The techniques used to create the last two images were basically a tone adjuster and opacity. Which were really fast and easy. But the first one took time because it had more steps which included selecting both images and moving the color to the other image with the match color tool.
