Color Wheel Project
Hola! It has been a long time since I posted something! Recently we got an assignment that was really fun. We were supposed to take 6 pictures of things that were related, whether it be shoes, backpacks, or industrial machines. Then, we would put the pictures on a photoshop canvas. Then we needed to find a stencil online. I used a star stencil. Then we had to cut the picture into the shape of a star. Once we had done that with all of our pictures, we used a photo filter and tinted each photo a different color of the rainbow. Once I had done that, I applied a gradient to the background of my project to make it more appealing and to make the colors stand out more. Then I had to arrange the stars so that they were arranged by color, but they were also appealing to the eye. Then we were done! I thought this project was interesting because we had so much freedom on the subject of our pictures. We got to choose what items we wanted to take pictures of. I chose shoes because they were simple to find, because everyone wears shoes to school, and usually you can find a variety if you look around. I got most of my pictures in 1 day, and then I took some more on the second day. This project was also cool because we got to experiment a lot with different tools. It was really all about the freedom. Adios!
