Today

Today i worked in illustrator but it was really hard to work in. During the week we'll work on it more and it will eventually get easier.

Pixel Vs. Vector

Photoshop creates pixel based images, and Adobe Illustrator creates vector based images.

Pixels: Images created using pixels and are resolution dependent.

Vector: Images defined by mathematical equations and are resolution independent.


Resolution independence is the concept that elements from the computer screen can be drawn independent from the pixel grid.
Resolution dependent is the concept that elements from the computer are depended from the pixel grid.

Today

Today i read an article about chine and talked about it on my blog, It was very interesting. After that i worked on photoshop trying to make a typography of Emma Watsons face, which I am not finished yet. I got some help from some friends and i was able to finish some parts.

Inside the War Against China's Blogs

As an individual I believe that the chinese companies have acted very unprofessional. With such unprofessionalism daqi has been very dishonest and the integrity shown on the blogging world has changed for the worst. Even though they try to fix the problem by doing everything they can they are only adding to it. I feel like the way they use other companies in order to gain better profit and wealth is unacceptable. They cant use their own ideas, they "have" to use other ideas from other companies and use them for themselves. This has some dictatorship in it, this results in a very nasty form of government in China. These acts only deteriorate to an unstable government that is still trying to mature. The flames of Communism have started to flare up and the signs for a future of crisis is beginning. With such flames of Communism, the developing country will suffer greatly along with all its inhabitants. All these little things affect how people on the internet see daqi as well as what China has been doing. They see it as an act of intolerance and for the sake of a better tomorrow many people have started to step it up and try to put an end to all these problems. This company is only trying to gain sympathy from others in order to show that what they are doing is for the better. They believe that all the things they have done have been good for the country, that nothing has actually "hurt" it. The internet and the blogs have said a completely different story. They have shared their opinions on blogs about what daqi has been doing, and how they see it. Unfortunately daqi can asses what the comments have said and can stop them before they flare up. So far daqi has been doing bad things, that i believe.

Typography

Typography is what language looks like, typography is just words written all over the place in different styles. I think that big companies pay artists typographic work because thats a way to get peoples attention and eventually getting them interested in their work. It works as a type of advertisement. Typography can really get people hooked into your work, they get really interested in what they are looking at that they want more. I think that graffiti is typography because its what language looks like, its all whole bunch of words written in different styles that get peoples attention. Typography looks really cool, it really got my attention the very first time I saw it, today, and made me want to do that too. Its very interesting and very unique.

Photoshop Me

This was done in photoshop in order to make it look like this. I changed colors, backgrounds, and used pens in order to trace and make it look like this.

"Stock Photo: Tiger 2." Free Stock. Web. <http://www.sxc.hu/photo/1283209>.

Today i was able to change a tiger picture in order to make it look nicer. I used photoshop and followed really easy instructions and was able to get the picture in after. I changed colors, curves, smooth color and put a border around it. It didn't take that long. 

Second Six Weeks Reflection

I feel like i've been really productive these past weeks, I was able to get all of my work done and turned in on time. I followed what had to be done on the activities and was able to post them on the blog for them to get graded. My work habits have been not so good, I was called by the teacher to get on task about 3 times and that was It. Even though I got" distracted" I was still able to finish my job and get a pretty good grade. I learned a lot of things during the 2nd 6 weeks, I learned how to work on pages, photoshop, how to work with colors, the blog, and how to use iphoto. These are some of the many things I learned so far in multimedia. I wonder what else we are going to do.

Photoshop

Today i worked on a mini quiz and got a nice grade. After this I worked on a picture in photoshop as you see up here, Its was a husky at first until it got drafted by the dallas cowboys. He aims to be in the superbowl 45.       http://www.dreamstime.com/husky-image16126384

Photoshop

Today I worked on photoshop and was able to get some nice photos shopped. I learned how to put it in photoshop and change the colors, contrast, texture, and everything in order to change the photo and make it look completely different from the original. I liked working on photoshop and next class I'll probably work more on it.
