Making a circular image with an image of a Gothic girl

For the Fourth week of class, i learnt a lot on the short cut and the finagling an image such as cleaning up an image that have been crop by using the brush tool. with the black ink, i am able to undo the erase part and with the white ink i am able to erase or clean up the edges of an images. for the photo that have a very distinct contrast to its background, i can simply use the the bar which is place at the  right bottom part of the software: under the "layers" bar, i can just click on the bar below it and change the "normal" into "darken" and the background of the image will disappear by itself without the need of being crop or cut out using the magic tool or the quick selection tool. we also learn how to make a circular image with the duplicating layer button  and apply to the image. after duplicating, move the center of the image on the area i want it to pivot. after that i can simply move the image without the image  going off center of the circular image i want to create. lastly is adding the text box which was quite easy to manage. it is straight forward having the font type and size bar at the top left hand corner of the screen. That is the last thing that i wan thought before going for the assessment next week. i hope i am able to duplicate the exact mood board that will be given to us during the assessment day.

For this week class, i learnt quite a few of things such as multiplying a certain image by duplicating after selecting the layer i want. After duplicating i can merged the layers together to make it into 1 image. i can also control the opacity of of an images by keying in the percentage i want such as "50%" in the opacity key bar. i can also select the percentage. i also learnt how transfer the stain glass and edit it by press alternate and clicking the middle part of the image so i will be selecting the image in a perfect circle without having the stain glass being cut out. One of the confusing method was removing the background from the gargoyle. however after trying a couple of time and asking my friends to explain to me the method i am able to understand better. i hope that i am able to do well during the assessment in week 5.

I find that week 2 of computerized technical drawing (CTD) is not that bad. in class, we were thought about the different method of copying and pasting through adobe Photoshop. I was first a bit panic when i was thought like 3 to 4 different method of copy and paste, but after practicing in class i started getting the hang of it. Other than that we also several method on cropping picture we had in the internet and pasting it in Photoshop to get us prepared in making mood board for our future assignment.

For example we would select a photo and bring it to Photoshop to be edited into our board. We first had to crop the model from the background. to do this i would select the crop button and select the area where the model i want is standing. I then copy and paste this in my board. To clear the extra background and get only the picture of the model, i would select the magic tool and click on the area i want to get rid of. I would press shift and continue selecting the area and press enter to clear the background. With this i would only be left with the picture of the model.
