Fall 2015 – 14 – Images in Text

Objective:

I can use layers and clipping masks to create an “Image in Text” picture.


Links:
See the folder named “14 – Images in Text” in the Student Pickup Folder for detailed instructions.
 
Topics Discussed:

  • Clipping Mask
  • Layers
Assignment:

Following the instructions in the above tutorials, or the instructions in the “14 – Images in Text” worksheet, use Photoshop CS5.5 and the “Create Clipping Mask” item in the”Layers” menu to produce three “Image in Text” pictures:
  1. Your name with your picture inside the text (use the iSight camera and Photo Booth to take your own picture).
  2. A fall, harvest or Halloween-related word with a seasonal picture inside the text (see the “Happy Thanksgiving” image in the instructions for an example)
  3. Any other words and picture of your choice. (Example: The word “Mustang” with a picture of a Mustang inside the word.)
  4. Place these three images, plus the “Pumpkins” image we created in class into a folder with your name on it. You should now have four images (Pumpkins, Fall-related, Your-Face-in-Your-Name, and Your Choice).
  5. Turn this folder into the server by the end of the day today (Tuesday, October 17th). Place it in folder number 14 – “Images in Text”.
  6. Get this done today, as we will start a new, multi-part project tomorrow!
