I Alyssa Scherk will be creating a page for the yearbook with the title “ find yourself”. This page will include seven images which will reflect the difficulties of a new student coming into an unfamiliar school and dealing with the frustrations of the first few days. I will set up these photos and direct my friends during am lunch and after school to illustrate such events as finding my locker, getting bumped around in the hallways, finding my bus, too many books, making new friends, lunch problems etc. I will use my friends scenery,nature,and will photograph these situations with them and with their consent. I plan to have these images by__________.

"A" assingment, September lights.

For this "A" assignment, i decided to use the ray's from the sun as my leading lines, drawing attention to the trees in the front row that i made the viewer focus on by using a duotone to balance out the colours and blured out the background so that line of trees stood out more, ending up with an "A" assignment by using leading lines, protocals and a duotone for a picture perfect moment.

leading lines

This assignment was an example of using the quick mask mode, the reason why we use the quick mask is to help draw attention to the forground.

duotone

duotone is used to put more focus on the desired subject.
I used duotone to make the picture contain only two colours. Then the blur tool to blur out the background slightly so
that the center of interest stands out more than the rest of the picture.
