During this burger tutorial I learned a lot more about how to make specific shapes and how to arrange them in the correct order so the correct things are in front of each other, I might have messed up a few items while in the production but I was able to remake them. While making the fries I accidentally added a stroke that was too thick for them, I decided to use the smallest stroke on the finished fries now because I wanted them to look more crispy and finished instead of just logs in the cup, I chose more of a red black and white color scheme because that's what I think of when I think about retro kind of diners and older restaurants.
I really enjoyed finishing this activity and had a lot of fun making my menu.

In the Four Icon Challenge I learned how to make more complex shapes and how to change what layer they are in, the shape editor was confusing at first but after I made the Train I got a hold of it, the diamond was hard because I couldn't move the edges that are king of pointing out but its fine, the book I chose was Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone which I put a wand, the Hogwarts train, the Sorcerer's stone, and the The Mirror of Erised.
For the Elements of design, I decided to take pictures of a painting on a wall for color, it included many colors that can represent this element.
For space I took a photo of the space between two chairs since it showed them being separated and the space between the two. The element line I chose to do a photo of a line of tape on the floor that was blocking something off, this was a good photo for a line. For texture I put a picture of the wall, it showed the different type of texture that just flat, it was very bumpy and had divots in it. For shape I chose a picture of the Japanese flag since it showed a perfect shape, a circle. For scale I put a picture of books on a bookshelf, I thought that this showed the scale of the books and the bookshelf which showed the size of both. Principles of Design -Contrast, I used a photo of the courtyard since it was showing lots of colors and with the blurr of the closer up things like the railing. -Repetition, I decided to take a photo of 3 blue chairs being placed in a row to make a repetitive view. -Alignment, I Took a picture of an equal looking shape on both sides, the bench was aligned directly with the front door area so it was perfect for alignment. -Proximity, I used a photo of the bricks on top of each other with the same proximity as the other, the area between each brick was a good choice for proximity. -Proportion, I chose a picture of the keyboard, the different shapes of the keys made sense to me for Proportion. -Emphasis, I used a picture of an arrow pointing at a barcode on the tv, it was emphasizing the barcode so I thought it was a good choice for Emphasis. -Rhythm, I used a picture of the lockers next to each other, I thought that this showed a good example of rhythm through the locker since they were all perfectly placed next to one another. -Balance, I used a picture of the balance of the black and the yellow, I thought that both colors were used good here and there was a feeling of balance between the two colors. For this assignment I mostly used the direct select tool which allowed me to make changes to the shapes I used in my pizza like the changes to the circle which was the top part of the mushroom and also the black olives, I also used the direct select tool to make changes to the Polygon which was the basil in the top right and middle.
I also used the fill and stroke tools to make changes to the color of all the objects like the main base of the pizza and the pepperoni but also used it for everything else. The two Items I chose to add where mushrooms and basil leaves, It was very hard to try and get the right shape for the leaves but it looked fine, the mushrooms I used a square and a circle with changed shapes using the direct select tool and the shape changer. In this project I learned more about masking and creating layer masks and using blur for the reflections, I also learned about the brush tool and how to use it.
In this project I learned more about the lasso tool, the feather tool and more about what the polygon lasso tool does, these tools helped me learn more about how to add a fade to my image and using the invert tools, using the feather to add the fade was completely new to me so It was cool to see how that worked.
Most of the destructive editing techniques were really easy but I found the clipping mask a little bit more confusing, just about everything else was pretty simple, it took some time trying to find a drink cup since there was not alot that could be edited but once I found one it was better, I had fun designing the sandwich and finding condiments etc.I personally think that fan art should not be illegal since its someones own idea that they get from something, the people who are making this fan art are not making money off of this and if anything it brings more attention to what the fan art is about, I think that if a company really did not want people to make fan art they should come out and say that its against their rules and they would take action if necessary, but if a company did not make this announcement it should be fair use, or the other way around where a company comes out says that fan art is open to everyone to make and if they don't they say they don't want people to make it.
The cat in the hat parody book court case shows that someone just got an idea from the book and made something just a tiny bit similar, they said it perfectly, "Dr. Seuss’s original work; it merely used Dr. Seuss’s work as a vehicle to comment about something else." |
