Illustrator stuff

Today we learned how to make a strat column on illustrator. We used the pathfinder to clean up the picture and then we made our own halloween picture. I was a little confused today because I got lost a couple times.

Tonight for Halloween my friends and I are going to go to like 3 parties and then watch brothers grim.

More Illustrator

We learned how to make our own picture in illustrator today. We placed and embedded an image so that it will open again and it is not a link. We learned how to align and distribute space in lines or text or whatever we want. I a little frustrated today because I had trouble cutting the image. We were going pretty fast and I missed a couple words so was lost the entire section.

My favorite Halloween costume has been an indian. When I was little I wanted to be Pocahontas and would dress up in an indian costume and play in the woods where I lived in Missouri. I would dress up like that every year.

Illustrator

Illustrator was fun today, we learned how to draw and manipulate shapes, text, and use the pencil and paint tools to create our own shapes. I liked being able to just create whatever comes to my mind. I was not frustrated at all today, the lecture was very good.

Something I would like to know about the future is if my family will all live near each other. We grew up far away from the rest of my family and we have all wanted to live close when we settle down.

Clone Tool


We used the clone tool today in class to remove or add objects to our picture. I was a little confused because when I try to remove people in the mexico picture, you can see the sand repeating really badly and it does not look real at all.

I don't have any superstitions, but when I was little my sister tried to make me think that if a black cat walked across your path you would have bad luck for 13 years. If that was so, I would still be having bad luck!

Merging


Today we merged three photos to make it look like one long picture of dead horse point. It was really cool how we could do that, I liked that I couldn't even tell where I had erased part of a picture and the other began. I was not fristrated about anything today.

I am a sports fan for the teams who I know, but I don't watch TV just to watch sports. If I know who is playing, I am a big sports fan.

Fall Activities

In class today we played with photoshop some more. We learned how to use the burn and dodge tool, the eraser, and how to edit a scanned image. It was a lot of fun because I like art anyway so I got to mess with a picture to make it better. I was not frustrated or confused at all today.

My favorite fall activity is playing outside in the wind and leaves that blow around. There aren't so many around here in Utah, but in Missouri there would be tons of leaves because there were so many trees.

Even more photoshop


Today we learned more about how to edit font and shapes with pictures in photoshop. We also added a border and edited text with a picture. I was not confused about anything today.


The best date I have ever been on was when we went to DI to pick out funny outfits for each other and we had to wear that outfit that night when we went ice skating. Afterwards, the boys attacked us with flour and we had a big fight.
