Movie Poster

For this assignment I used the poster from the movie Honey and transformed it with My face. I think this is a good choice because Honey was one of my favorite movies when I was younger and I love dancing. For this image I used Photoshop to change the pigment of my skin and add place my face in-between the bangs. It was definitely a challenge for me to get the skin and hair as exact as I could but I enjoyed the challenge.  

Contrasting Identities

These pictures describe two contrasting identities that I have. During school and work I am very dedicated and take my work very seriously, however I love to be silly with my friends. Using photoshop, I used filters, blur tools, smudging, and stamps in order to portray my emotion and mood.

If The Shoe Fits

This image was taken in my roommate's closet. I think the perspective allows the viewer to want to look deeper into the closet and explore what's inside. These photos are for the assignment image conversions. By using Photoshop I was able to bring out warm colors with gradient and then inverting it to further discover interesting aspects of the image. I think the second image gives the photo a cooler and interesting style. 

Tumble

This photo was taken in the inside of a washing machine. This image is for the assignment image conversions. I think this image is interesting in its original form because it is hard to distinguish what it is but, by using Photoshop, I was able to further distort the picture using filters such as plastic wrap and color adjustments. I think the second image makes you think harder about what it is and the colors make it seem almost extra terrestrial.

Calm After the Storm

This image was taken in my basement after hurricane Irene. My family had to evacuate our home and our basement flooded. These images pertain to the assignment of image conversions. I used the original image, along with Photoshop, to alter the image to add more expression. I chose these colors in order to amplify the emotions felt by my family and me.
