1. What did you learn?
I learned how to remove backgrounds from images, create my own background layers, and use layer masks, filters, and adjustment layers to create a composite image in Photoshop.
2. What was easy?
After getting lots of practice with the labs, I found removing backgrounds to be the easy part of this project.
3. What was challenging?
The most challenging part was choosing which images to use and figuring out how to arrange them. Deciding which background technique to use and coming up with a background that complemented the images was also challenging.
4. How could your submission be improved?
I could improve my submission by experimenting with more tools than what I already used, or by trying out different backgrounds.
5. How could the professor improve the assignment for the next class?
The professor could improve the assignment for the next class by giving more attention to the mobile version.
6. How might you apply your knowledge in future assignments or work scenarios?
This project helped me to get much more comfortable using/navigating Photoshop and to learn several new tools in the software, which will be helpful for any future assignments or work scenarios that require using Photoshop.
7. How did a specific reading or video inspire or help you?
I found the Pinterest board that was shared in the Image Compositing slideshow inspiring in showing all the creative ways people have used Photoshop to create composite art.
