First Clone Assignment

This is my first clone assignment. It is of my grandfather. I made them interact by putting one on the computer, one flipping through the channels with the remote, and one laying on the couch watching TV. All of my colors blended pretty good. I see all colors (blue, red, green, and yellow) Instead of the lasso effect, I used the eraser to erase out any parts of the clones that might have shown through the other clone. I think that I did very good on this piece.



Good and Bad Cloned Images

I think this cloned image is very bad. Some of the edges of the man are feathered way too much. They could've done a better job with the lighting and the shadows.

This cloned image is very good because the contrast between the colors fit very nicely. He is very well blended with the background.

This image of clones is very, very bad. The dude on the very far right is way too blurry. The guy doesn't match his background very good at all.

This is the best clone image I could find. The lighting and the shadows match perfectly. They are all interacting in a very neat way. This person obviously took time into this photo.



Assignment 1-My 5 Collages

Yes, you see this picture right. My grandfather gave me the idea that I should have a "Colorado" courtroom(because marijuana is legal there) where Willie Nelson, the king of smoking marijuana, should be the judge. I also decided to crop in some big marijuana activists in the picture as well. You will find Seth Rogen, Miley Cyrus, Snoop Dogg, Wiz Khalifa, and Bob Marley in the picture. I started with Willie Nelson as the judge. Obviously Willie isn't a judge so I had to crop his face on a judge's body, who originally had a thumbs down so I had to change that. Next I cropped everyone else and made them look like they were actually sitting in the chairs. The last thing I did was put smoke over the entire picture and turned the opacity down.

This is one that I posted the other day. I made it to depict that society worships people like Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber, Kanye West, Kim Kardashian more than they should. These people are not role models to me. I cropped all of their faces using the lasso tool. I sized them and changed their perspective so they would match the presidents. I saturated them to make them the color of the rock. I blurred and smudged them to blend in with the rock.

I got the idea for this one from a painting I saw of Kristen Bell as Anna from Frozen. I thought it would be neat to show the voices behind the characters as the character they play. Idina Menzel is Elsa, Kristen Bell is Anna, Tom Hanks is Woody, Tim Allen is Buzz Lightyear, John Goodman is Sulley, Robin Williams is Genie, and Mandy Moore is Rapunzel. I used the lasso tool to crop their faces and sized them to match the characters. I used the hue-saturation and color tools to make them the colors of their characters. I used the smudge tool to blend them to their characters.

This is my favorite picture by far. The little girl looks like my little cousin, so I thought it would be neat to do something with her. I have her sitting on the moon blowing "bubbles" that are the planets in their order from the son. (Yes, I know it would've made more sense to have her sitting on the sun, but that's just unrealistic) ;) I used stars as my background and cropped the moon, the girl, and the planets using the magic wand tool. On the planet mercury, I smudged it into the bubble wand to show it the girl blowing it. I used brightness and contrast to make the colors seem like they belonged.

Everyone knows the saying "it's raining cats and dogs." I wanted to actually make that idea come to life. I cropped all of the animals into the picture. I added noise to the background picture and each individual picture to make it look like rain.



Mount Rushmore--well, sort of

This is my first collage. I wanted to show how society seems to "praise" celebrities who shouldn't be. From left to right the picture shows Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber, Kanye West, and Kim Kardashian. All of these people are celebrities that I don't see as role models in my own eyes. The first thing I did was use the lasso effect to crop out their faces. I copied and pasted their faces onto the original Mount Rushmore picture. I saturated all of the faces to make the rock effect. I then used the burn tool to darken the shadows to look as though the faces were actually carved. I used the smudge tool to blend the celebrities' faces with the presidents' faces.



First Collage

This is how I decided to do my collage. It kind of looks like the rocket and car are about to crash while they are landing on the moon that has robots and raggedy Anne dolls.
