bored.

This picture i decided to add onto the orig. picture (which was just the picture of Hanna) and then I added in the picture of the cheetah with the matching mascara down the face theme because i was thinking about how her mascara smearing looked like a cheetahs eyes. i then downloaded the smoke brush and added in for effect. 

advertisements.... while i wait for the equip

While i was waiting for equipment from people, i spent some time practicing making advertisements. these are what i came up with. the first image is all my work other than the brooks logo obviously since i didn't create their logo. i took all of those althletic photos one day, went in and blurred out everything but her brooks, and then added in the smear and the crack with brushes and sat the logo on top. the next image i sorta already explained in the post above, but i then took the theme of the mascara smearing and turned it into a advertisement for bad gal lash mascara. after that is the club tan picture. i designed this from complete scratch i started with a black background and downloaded brushes and fonts to make everything except their logo. the last one is of my friend Hanna's car. i took the pic on her garage, went around it and made the background black, added the spotlight effect to give it some interesting contrast, downloaded the font and added in the logo. i am assuming that since i did these projects not only with pictures i have already used on this blog, and by choice since there weren't enough supplies for me to use for the past three freaking weeks, that i do not need a contact sheet. therefor, i do not have one.  

althetics

well, lets start from the top. i took a plain background and put blue paper over the strobes so that they flashed and created that bright blue effect. i sprayed her down in some of the pictures, and also sprayed down the basketball so that she looked intense. all diffestent sports and angels. edited by cleaning her up and then working on the background. and adding translucent images and text to match each pic. i have a lot of levels work and dodging and burning on each image. (twitch also remember i had to show you all my images becaue they were raw so i couldnt use the files to make a contact sheet!) thank you

Senior ball

This week i decided to try and take some interesting pictures of my prom dress... my inspiration came from a wedding magazine with really interesting pictures of the details on a dress. i took care of the back ground, adjusted the levels, and used blurr and sharpen tool so that it had some depth.

road trip and paintings :)

These pictures were taken on my road trip for spring break. a couple of the images (at the beach) i played around with some art effects and got some cool results. The image of the smoke stack started out looking kinda like that simple one, i then altered the levels, burned, and swirled the sky for a creepy effect. the portrait of hanna started out just a regular picture i took candid and i then played around with her skin and the background, i wanted an almost cartoon look that was super subtle so i gave her eyes a plastic wrap and was happy with the results.

this week

had some fun in the studio this week. i was in a kinda weird dark creative mood when editing so pardon the creepiness ... some of the pictures are of my necklace and that was my main goal of what to get pictures from this week. i wanted dark... in focus on the charm and then the chain out of focus so mission accomplished. some of the others were just me getting carried away and having fun.. took some pictures through this tunnel i wanted a "light at the end of the tunnel effect

mr chs

with these boys i wanted to make them look like james bond and whatnot because the theme was casino royal... this was a big project between the suits for everybody and getting them all to not be shy about trying to look hardcore... they were a little shy at first but they warmed up. i adjusted the levels to bring out the suits and then i  burned all around them. edited their skin using clone, patch and blur.. brightened and burnt the eyes.

 sharpend the eyes ( i wanted an over overdone look in the eys because i wanted it to almost look not real)... some of them i desaturated then intesnifyed the levels.... but ended up using the color anyways.
