Bang Em Sticker


Category #6: Bang Em Sticker

Story: Image completely of my choosing.

Everything was made from scratch except the texture background which was downloaded from grungetextures.com a while ago. I used the shape tool to make the rectangle. Liquefy was used to create the actual wrinkles/creases in the sticker, and used the burn tool to darken the wrinkles/creases. The dodge tool was used for highlights. I made all the letters individually. I used transform, warp, to warp the letters around the crease.

Art Piece


Category #5: This character's name is The Butler. It was made as a t-shirt character idea my friend sketched up for me to try and create in Illustrator.

Everything was created from scratch. The character was made in Illustrator, created the blue lines in photoshop. Used guides to make a grid. I used the brush tool to make those blue lines.

Introduction

The photos below are a mixture of photos taken by myself and my cousin Eriq Brye (with the exception of 3 photos found on the internet). I used his computer to do all of the manipulating because my Mac had crashed and I was really in a crunch to get this project finished. So, if you are wondering why all the screenshots show me using CS5 Photoshop, that's why. I hope that is alright.

Wheel


The only technique used in this photo was masking.

Both photos used were taken by Eriq Brye





Walk



In this photo, I made a surface blur, added photo filter called sprayed strokes, adjusted the levels, masked out all the people from the filter used.

Photo used was taken by my cousin Eriq Brye on a vacation with his family in Chicago.





Emotional Reaction- Space Invader



This photo is used to create an emotional feel. It is depicted to seem as if you are sitting in the seat of the viewer. The photo was taken while driving, however, the actual purpose is to make it seem as if the viewer is driving very fast. The burn tool was used to make the glare in the sky seem darker, as if those lights were actually in the sky.

Skreet


The only technique used in this photo was the clone tool to remove the man and vehicle.
