This site is really nice and since I’m into photography I would love to learn how to do different effects with photographs. i would like to learn different features in using photo shop. Can’t wait to learn!
Hi Dane, yes Photoshop is an exciting program to learn. The possibilities are endless!! You should have a very nice portolio by the end of class. Let me know if you have any questions.
Good evening Professor.
I have an interest in animations, and I hope I could get to learn it in class.
I also have a few questions for the panoramic picture project that is due this Saturday.
Is it acceptable if there were people or moving objects in the pictures?
Can the pictures be taken in a landscape or portrait orientation?
When taking panoramic photos, do I just turn my body slowly to take pictures?
Should the photo overlap be around 30%?
Hi David, Glad to hear you’re interested in animation. It’s a lot of fun. You can have people in your panorama, but be careful, about moving objects…you may get some funny distorted results. It is better to take the pics in Landscape mode, but you can experiment with this. Turn your body only after taking a picture, and turn it in a very small degree. Of course it is much better to use a tripod, if you have that available. The photos only need to have a 25% overlap or less, as long as there is some.
Woops. Regarding my previous comment on the panorama photos being due this Saturday, I meant to say “to get ready this Saturday”. I’m sorry for the typo.
Hi Alice. I have an earache and my throat is nearly closed up. I do not want to miss class but I want to know if you think I’d be okay doing this assignment from home, as I don’t want to infect anybody and I can barely move…?
Hi Professor,
Are we allowed to turn in late projects or extra credit ones we did in class?
I have a bad habit of saving projects on my USB drive and find out later that I didn’t turn it in. 😦
I realized I may have forgotten to turn them into the folders and I am planning to turn all the ones we did in class and projects for this Saturday class.
Q1> My question is for Lesson #1 P 24 – 25; I am running CS6 and am repeatedly getting stuck on Setp 7-8 and cannot proceed correctly to step 9. I get a ringing bell each time from Photoshop and cannot compelete the lesson properly. I plan to also discuss this with you in class on Saturday 2/8 to hopefully get a work around.
Q2. Tried to do the Panorama assignement outside of class as per your email and in CS6 and found that I cannot finalize Step 2. and incorporate Geometric Distortion Correction as it is not available in my CS6 package. Do you have a workaround for this issue so I can complete this assignment?
Hi Alice, Why does David Brown’s posts continuously show up in the blogosphere to review and my posts do not? Also, I have not had a reply on my previous posts; are you seeing them?
I am thinking of taking my panorama photo that I shot and joined, and inserting a picture of my wife and I somewhere on the photo in 3D, but I’m not sure if I’ll be able to complete this since she’s currently out of the country:(
I found this to be a fairly simple special effect, but it looks pretty sweet. It would be good for creating some interesting photos for friends or family, and it could be used as a way to promote a product. I really like the idea of water reflection, but I think I could make some additional changes using the warp too to make this even more advanced. Anyway, here is the link: http://www.photoshopessentials.com/photo-effects/water-reflection/
I found a lot of fun in Pic worth 1000 words. thanks to the instructor, she helps by repeating meany times.The assignment looks easy but it needs more attention with the instructions.Have fun working on it. here is a youtube link for turning the picture into words effect.
Making a web page is something that should have been fairly easy for me, but the first web page I made had a template that was too difficult to revise. I wanted to change text and links, but I had no luck doing either of these, so I went back to an old webpage that I had a long time ago. It’s not a wonderful layout, but it’s a start to showcase some of the things I’ve accomplished as a student at golden west. However, I feel that I still need my own devoted website, so I will probably move everything over once I am no longer so involved in school. Here is my site, for those who are interested: https://sites.google.com/site/astraeslocke/
Hi Alice,
I just uploaded 2 more files to my web site for extra credit . 1_EXTRA CREDIT.jpg (465k ,
2_ Refine Edge.jpg (393k
sorry for being late but I could not open my blackboard until now. It keeps saying error . The refine edge file is for today’s video that you posted today. I was very interested at this point exactly.it is really helpful to solve this problem. thank you.
Day for night it was a very nice project to change the day to night and you believe it and i learn how to adjust the color and cut the pic and edit it together to get good design.
I never thing i can work on project like this [Picture is Worth 1000 Words] and it was need more passion for to do it good after you print the poster for me i couldn’t believe the result. It’s awesome
Content Aware this is one of my favorite because i can eras any part of the photo and you can feel nothing happen in the photo look like original shoot without the annoying part.
Special FXs – Atmospheric – i was looking for search in google and i see some photo i don’t know if that real or photo shop and i work on this project and i was happy for what i’m doing and the final result is amazing for me.
For the movie poster i was looking on internet to find poster i like and i find amazing indian poster and i was amazed how can i do like this and with Alice i did it excellent better than the orignal. Thank you.
Logo is one of the important thing in the poster or the media at all and i was doing that with different way but now i know easy way to do it sharp and super fast.
For advanced montage is a project you can have big freedom for imagination and i spent too much time to make my dream come true. that is super awesome.
For day night it’s a very nice project you learn how to convert the time to another even if that is not the true but you do it like real and that is very nice technique i learn in this class.
Movie Poster i love this project a lot because i couldn’t believe i can do like any real move poster and that is happen with one of the excellent movie indian poster i like and i did it with my on pic but the same as the Indiana poster and i add my touch also. Thank you professor Alice.
