Topics Discussed:

  • Magic Wand
  • Tolerance
  • Contiguous Selection
  • Black & White Adjustment Layer
  • Clipping Mask

Assignment:

Open the “bouquet.jpg” file below in Photoshop. Use the Magic Wand selection technique demonstrated in class to select the red elements in the photograph (the flowers and the berries). Inverse the selection and apply a Black & White Adjustment Layer to turn everything except the flowers black and white. You may also apply a Hue/Saturation Adjustment Layer to change the color of the flowers, or a Brightness/Contrast Adjustment Layer to lighten the flowers. Save the file as “YOURNAME bouquet.psd” and place a copy in the “Color Splash” assignment post on our Google Classroom page.

ADOBE PHOTOSHOP 2022 – IMAGES IN TEXT

Objective:

Students will be able to create a picture in text effect by using clipping masks to develop an “image in text” picture so they can produce dynamic text effects using type and graphics in Photoshop.

Topics Discussed:

  • Clipping Masks
  • Layers

Assignment:

Following the instructions in the above tutorials, or the instructions in the “Images in Text Instructions” worksheet linked below, use Photoshop CC and the “Create Clipping Mask” item in the”Layers” menu to produce a total of four “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 holiday-related word with a seasonal picture inside the text (see the “Happy Thanksgiving” image in the instructions for an example)
  3. Any other combination of a picture in the text of your choice. (Example: The word “Mustang” with a picture of a Mustang inside the word.)

Place these three images, plus the “Pumpkins” image created in class today 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).

Try to turn these in by the end of the day on Friday, October 28th. Upload all four images to today’s Assignment post in our Google Classroom.
