Stewie and Adam Sandler

Here is my creation for the Barbie Project. It is a combination of the character Stewie from the show Family Guy and Adam Sandler. We were supposed to create a mixture of a cartoon and a famous actor.  This was a part of the retouching unit because we were learning about how if a barbie was a real sized person then she would be very messed up. Our assignment was to create a celebrity who was altered to look like a cartoon character that has strange proportions just like barbie.

Retouching


Before this unit, i knew that most magazine photos were retouched but i had no idea that they were changed so much. Before, i thought that the pictures were just brightened up to make them shine more but i realized that it is much more.  I think that now that i have done some retouching, i realize how much different a magazine picture looks before and after photoshop.  Retouching artists do a lot of work on each picture and i think that they do most of the stuff that i did to this picture and probably a lot more.  What i did to this picture is removing freckles and blemishes, smoothening and softening out the skin and i also changed the eye color and saturation.

Newimals


These are my new animals that i made. the guard dog bear was easy but turned out well. the parrot fish was harder to make because it was more complex and i had to make more layers. i did not put a background for that one because it was harder to see when i added one. the dog bear didnt have as many colors so i put a background for it.

Pear Reflection

This is my image for the shiny bannana project. instead of a bannana i used a pear and made that reflect off of the shiny surface. to create this effect i duplicated the layer, flipped it and then used the gradient tool.

Xray project

This is the photo i made for my xray project. i chose to do the xray on my shoulder and i put an axe coming out of it. i had to make two versions of the axe so that i could invert the one that is in the xray. this makes it look more real because you can see the inverted and the non inverted versions of the object.
