What did you learn?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Project 2, I learned many things! First, I downloaded a texture and applied it for the first time. Then, I learned more about creating a background. I began with a simple clouds background then used the paint tool to create a new background with the texture. Additionally, I became more comfortable with the pen tool and making my shape transparent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>2. What was easy?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to my background in photoshop, I found numerous things easy! This includes cropping and scaling all three images, creating a background (clouds), and using the pen tool to make a shape out of my third image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>3. What was challenging?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this project, I found working with the texture to be the most challenging. Prior to this, I only used textures from my photographs. Instead of doing that, I downloaded a texture from the website you recommended &#8211; which is out of my comfort zone. However, after re-watching the class and experimenting, I solved my minor issues and created an image I am satisfied with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>4. How could your submission be improved?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I believe that my submission could be improved with the texture aspect of the project. I did not like how my only option for the texture was my dog&#8217;s fur. So, I downloaded a texture from the website you recommended. As a result, I would have spent longer searching for a better or more effective texture for my project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>5. How could the professor improve the assignment for the next class?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I believe the professor did an excellent job providing information, answering questions, and showing examples with this assignment. I really do not think this assignment can be improved for the next class &#8211; it is already well thought out and explained!<br><br>6. How might you apply your knowledge in future assignments or work scenarios?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In regards to future assignments or work scenarios, I think that my knowledge about Photoshop. I know a lot about the program and can my knowledge to freelance and professional work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>7. How did a specific reading or video inspire or help you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this project, there was not a specific reading or video that inspired or helped me. Since the images I used are from Project 1, I wanted to portray my dogs in a different way. Here, my dogs (Teddy and Toby) are shown in a unique and artistic way whereas the first project portrays them in a very realistic, yet enhanced, way. As a result, my project was influenced by Project 1. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"446\" src=\"https:\/\/comdma.com\/lauriek\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/142\/2021\/03\/project2_full-1024x446.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-34\" srcset=\"https:\/\/comdma.com\/lauriek\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/142\/2021\/03\/project2_full-1024x446.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/comdma.com\/lauriek\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/142\/2021\/03\/project2_full-300x131.jpg 300w, https:\/\/comdma.com\/lauriek\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/142\/2021\/03\/project2_full-768x334.jpg 768w, https:\/\/comdma.com\/lauriek\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/142\/2021\/03\/project2_full-1536x668.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/comdma.com\/lauriek\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/142\/2021\/03\/project2_full-2048x891.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/comdma.com\/lauriek\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/142\/2021\/03\/project2_full-1568x682.jpg 1568w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1.
