Yet Another Unnessecary Blog Post

Well I promised I'd write more today! ... This time I'll talk about what I did this week, problems I had and how I overcame them! -- This week we worked souly on our blogs and a Photoshop Elements Assignment, as well as a few textual assignments as well! In Photoshop Elements, the only problem I had was how to create the MOVABLE, believable cutout of a horses head. I found out that if I use the "magic wand" and the lasso tool I can paint a horse outline, and then select it separately. More next week! (See the blog post below too!)

EARLY POST

Well tomorrow is blog day, but I thought that I'd do it early this week, to show off the beautiful artwork I did today (HAHA). This week we worked mostly on a new assignment (a digital photography thing), with the acception of learning a few more "text tool" things in Photoshop Elements AND Corel Draw. Tres Interessant! Well this should be a sufficient blog post for now, and I'll write a little tomorrow too! More Soon!

Aujourd'hui ... BLOG DAY!

Je suis tres fatigue. NO I'm not going to speak in french for the entire blog. (Though I could....). I got 34/34 on my quiz today on Photoshop Elements. I'm extremely excited because the show we ARE going to do for SURE this year is called THE WIZ! Its a "different" version of The Wizard of Oz. It should be exciting. Today in photoshop we had to retouch a picture of Korah, removing the smokestacks and changing all in the picture (except the BIG K) into "sepia" form. More soon!

Random!!!

It's BLOG DAY! Of course I've already done one this week, but I'm BORED! Today I finished my picture searching, and another picture assignment in which we had to edit the picture with the Adobe Photoshop Elements --liquify application thing. I don't have much else to say, especially since the bell is going to ring in about 2 minutes ... well one minute now. Someone just "escaped" from class and I found out that the video clip I wanted to add (from Youtube) I "cant add" because youtube "access is denied". Too bad.

Introduction

Okay! So this will be the first "blog" post I'm going to do! I have many questions to answer so lets start!

1) The objective for taking the course: I am considering different "creative" paths for a career like photography, cinematography, web design, etc. Also, I joined the committee for the "2010 Finnish Grand Festival" which will be held in Sault Ste. Marie (of course in 2010). On that committee I have a couple of jobs, one being to create an artistic, catchy web page-- meaning I have to know HOW to create a web page.

2) Projects I want to work on during this course: I am looking forward to photography and editing, for the artistic reasons. I (obviously) need to know how to create a web page, and I LOVE cinematography ( working for SHAW made that quite clear). I just want to expand my technological knowledge in a FUN WAY!

3) Skills I hope to acquire: Well I Basically just explained that in 2 different paragraphs there, but like I said, I just want to expand my knowledge (and learn how to digitally edit videos, photos, etc.)

4) Any future career goals in the area or other: I have been considering many different career paths in this area. The most prominent being graphic design, and following that choice I have cinematography, photography, and basically every other subject in this area.

5) Include a favourite photo from your files or the Internet: If you can't see any right now, then you'd better look harder!
