Lab 6 reflection

In this lab we used the healing, spot healing, patch, color replacement, dodge, blur, smogde, burn, and rectangle tool. For picture (a) we used the healing brush to get rid of the the circle thing and fill the edge with grass. On picture (b) we use the healing brush again to get rid of JB sign and holes, but to fix the crack it was hard because you have to use the patch tool and select a part of mountain to get rid of crack, I ask Anvinh for help because he did it in his first try. On the picture (c) we had to make the man younger buy using the healing brush on his forehead to remove wrinkles and then I zoom into his right eye and change the size to 10 and remove wrinkles. On picture (4) I change the wall color from blue to red, which was fun. Then I used smodge tool on the roof to make it look like someone put there gand there and moved it, then I used the sharpness tool on the right window to make it look nice and clear, and blur tool on the left window to make it look unclear. Last I burn tool on the right rose and on the left I used dodge tool. After that we put the pictures together and finished the lab.

Reflection on my grades

1) My overall grade in this class was 90
2) My highest grade was 100 on engagement, which is 15% of my grade and I don't think it's that hard to do.
3) My worst grade was assignment because I guess I made some mistakes, that I should have not made.
4) I wasn't missing any homework but I forgot to put a blog link in Jupiter so I messed up so bad, even though I posted it on Google plus when it was due, it still count as late.
5) I can do better by remembering to post the blog link in Jupiter.

Lab 5 reflection

In this lab we took 2 pictures and give them filters. We use liquify filter first by using a picture of a person. We did this by first rasterizing a picture then we go to filters and pick liquify. It was fun to use this because you can make yourself look funny, like bigger face. Then we rename the layer liquify. With the second photo we have to duplicated it 4 times because we need to use different filters for each pictures. Then I spread out the other 5 pictures and gave each filters and rename them to these filters. After that we had to write our name and date and the lab number somewhere in the lab. What I learn is that doctors make pictures looks different what they usually look like and they can make pictures look better sometimes. What was hard for me in this lab was when I had to resize the pictures. I see myself using this in the future when I need to use a filters for my pictures.

How I take notes

The way I take notes is that I write the topic or the question on the left side of the paper where there hole puches are and on the rest of the paper I write important thing that the teacher teach me about the topic and it help me keep my notes organized

Road to Queen College reflection

On the 5th of November our class went on a trip to Queen College. We first took the M train to Woodhaven then we transfer to mta but. When we got there we got tickets for a raflal to win nexus 5 or nexus 7 tablet. We also met the U.S Army, they asked us what is leadership. Some of us got to answer and got prizes, I got one too when I answered their questions. After that we ate food the funny part was that Diego took six lunches. Then they answer our questions. When we left we took the mta but then the E train back which sucks because when ms. Ramirez dismissed us I took the same way back. The most important things I learn is that it is important to be a leader because you have to help your team weekness.

10/30/15                                        Project 2 Warhol Portrait

Warhol is was an American artist who was a leading figure in the visual art movement known as pop art. His works explore the relationship between artistic expression, celebrity culture, and advertisement that flourished by the 1960s. After a successful career as a commercial illustrator, Warhol became a renowned and sometimes controversial artist. I would because this not only a regular painting, it is different and creative. This reminds of the time when I see art on the street because it nice to see some thing different because I think that the same is boring. Association is important because it the way of working with your group or friends, also when you work together you can split up the work up and get the job done faster.

Critics would make other feel bad and make them drag them down with they got and it not good to do this. The difference between informed and uninformed opinion is that the informed is what you share to the other and unformed is not having or showing awareness or understanding of the facts. The different between taste and bias is that taste is something you enjoy and bias is when your against one thing. Warhol portraits are very unique because he makes a portraits into four portraits, also each portraits have two different colors, but from a regular picture you see only one portrait with actual color.

Portraits are important to us because we take pictures of ourselves almost everyday. People paint portrait throughout their age because when you paint someone important you can sell it for a lot of money. What I did to created my Warhol portrait is first I took a picture of myself then I watch Ms. Ramirez step by step instructions for how to make your own portrait, but at first it was hard because there a lot of things you have to do like using the magic wand tool, lasso, ruler, making layer, etc. I don't think I would use this in the future because when you take a picture you can add filters and one of the filters does the Warhol portrait for you.
