All classes:  

Hello!

If you haven't done so already, provide a link to each of the images you used in your PTA contest image. This is your way of tell me that you definitely want to enter the contest.  If there are no image links, I will assume you don't want to enter the contest.

Make sure you write at least three sentences explaining how you created your image!

Make sure to pick up an entry form from the sub.  All entry forms are due Friday.  Pay careful attention to what you write under the "artist statement."  This is almost as important as your image itself!

Photoshop 1:

Assignment: 

• Watch this video on using Kuler.com and create the color scheme along with the teacher BUT DO NOT reduce the number of colors to 3 when he does.  You want to keep 5 colors.
• His version of Kuler is a little older than yours, but you should still be able to follow along.
• Note:  if the video link does not work and you can get to youtube, here is the original link.

Create a color scheme for each of the rules available:

• Analogous, Monochromatic, Triad, Complementary, Compound, Shades
• 
  Also create a color scheme from a photo
  
• Upload a screenshot of each of your color schemes to your blog along with the name for it 

Dreamcatcher

• Dreamcatchers
• Download the Dreamcatchers zip file.
• Double click the file and a folder of images will open.
• Choose one of the Dreamcatchers.
• Use one of your color schemes to color the dreamcatcher
• The easiest way to do this is to drag the screenshot into Photoshop and use the eyedropper to choose your color.
• Upload your finished image along with a description about what you did or what you learned.
• Make sure to include the name of the rule you used for your color scheme.

Photoshop 2:

Assignment: 

•  If you are not already working on a project, begin working on the following photo repair project. 
• Lee Baby Photos (they can also be found under "Photoshop Files" link on the Videos and Files page.)
•  These images were damaged in a flood and need repair.  This assignment is a "client" project, which is what Photoshop 3 students do.  Your client is Mrs. Lee, so if you have any questions about the images, she is the one to ask.
• Make sure that you do not "downsize" the images (make them a smaller file size) because they will be printed out.
• Upload a screenshot of your finished image along with a description about what you did or what you learned.

Print and Image:                                                                            

Assignment: 

• Continue working on your game board.
• If you do not have anything to do, choose an image from the Alphabet Book project.  The link is on this page.  Look at the list on the door to make sure you do not use an image someone else has already completed.
• Upload your finished image along with a description about what you did or what you learned.
