Blog 5




1. The most significant accomplishment looking at my Final would be my used of layering and the circular flow it created throughout the entire piece itself.  Looking at the work altogether it was able to create a deeper meaning of time and flow through the color change in each piece, the advancement of the pyramid, the progression of birds to planes and the overall circular motion of the piece.   The transition from the God Anubis, The Pharaoh, and the mans silhouettes displays were people have come from to the unknown of our future with the silhouettes of man compared to the outlines of the Anubis God and the Pharaohs.






2. Quiz 2 was the most challenging learning experience for me.  I had a lot of issues trying to used the different selection tools.  In this quiz you can tell that the images were selected from another sources and placed in this piece.  I was able to master my skill with this tool in my Final, through the insertion of the plane, helicopters, and the glass pyramid. Using other techniques such as blur and the eraser tool allowed me to be able to make these images look seamless, as if there were originally in this art work.










3. In my Midterm and Final I was able to change the color of each frame, creating a shift in time.  I achieved this feeling in the Midterm by selecting each frame and changing the saturation to create the illusion of a shift in the day.  In the Final I was able to not only change the hue/ saturation, but used different filters as well as the adjustment tools to create the shift from the dark ages to the now with a bright sky.  Through my advancement of the tools and techniques acquired I was able to create a more meaningful art work in the Final than in the Midterm.
