Dear Ms. Dunning,
               Today we made cell phone covers in Photoshop. I created an alpha layer in channels and pasted a black and white picture to that layer and then I pushed the blacks in that picture. Next I found different backgrounds online, and then copied them to Photoshop and added effects to them. I then merged the layers and added a layer mask to the picture. We also organized the folders on FileZilla.

Dear Ms. Dunning,
                  Today I finished up my yearbook cover. I downloaded a font style form online and finished all the text I needed to do. I also used the golden duck that you posted online for the yearbook cover. I used a free background that I found online for my yearbook background. I couldn't stretch it for the whole background because it looked weird so I used eight different copies of the background and then blurred the edges.

Dear Ms. Dunning,
                    Yesterday I worked on the movie poster assignment. I finished cropping my pictures in Photoshop yesterday. I took out the background and adjusted the brightness and contrast of the pictures. I based my movie poster on a hungry games movie poster.

Asymmetry and Symmetry

Dear Ms. Dunning,
                    Today I learned to create symmetrical and asymmetrical texts on photographs using Photoshop. I used tools like the pen tool, clone tool, create work path, text tool, effects, and brush tool.
Dear Ms. Dunning,
              Yesterday I learned about symmetry, asymmetry, and radial symmetry. I also learned how to write text in a circular path in Photoshop. I used the ellipse tool in path mode to create paths and then I used the text tool to write quotes in a circular path around my head.
