Whew! What a crazy start to the school year. And by "start", I mean the past 13 weeks!
Changing districts is tough. Starting a new program is challenging. And moving from middle school to high school is, well,
totally amazing!
For the first two months of school, we were running at break-neck pace trying to get ready for the ATPI Fall Photo contest and our first YMCA Gallery opening. The past two weeks have afforded us a little time to slow down and experiment with Photoshop.
The Transformations project introduced the concept of layers, duplicating images, transformation tools, color adjustments and filters. Using one of their images, students created a grid of duplications and adjusted each image using hue, saturation, and filters.

The
Descriptive Portrait project introduced the typography palette in Photoshop CS6, and students experimented with adding fonts and adjusting kerning, leading, character size, and more.
And finally, everyone stepped in front of the green-screen to create a
Big-Little image while learning about the quick selection and magic wand tools and reviewing how to transform images.
