Animation Progress Update


I made some progress on my animation in which I have decided on the way I want my characters to look and on the style I want them to be in. I picked a fairly simple, but nice style. I drew the lines for the first character (the guy shown above) for the first small part of the animation. The animation is running at 12 fps so I ended up copy and pasting some drawings for stillness.


I also drew the first two frames for the second character and all the frames for the first character are done up to this point as well. I currently need to do the most difficult parts of the animation; the running in the dress and the twirl. I am pretty happy with the progress I made so far.

Composition and Harmonic Frameworks

This is the final Dog Statue Edit shown with the 1/3 grid I used to move the dogs. This is the same as the image above without the grid. I copied the dogs, moved them so both their heads lined up with the intersections of the grid and edited them with the use of curves. This is the original untouched image. This is the final image of this house with the internal armature I used to edit this photo. This is the final photo, if you look below you'll see that I removed the tree and parts of the house to try to make it follow the internal armature better. I also raised the contrast on the house to make it stand out a little more. Here is the original photo. This is the final photo with the rebatement grid.  This is the final photo without the grid, I used adjustment layers, raised the brightness and brought out the blue with the use of curves and levels respectively. I then lowered the saturation of everything else besides the house so it would po...

Clipping masks and Retouching

Image
This is an edited photo of a watermelon using clipping masks and adjustment layers. I used curves on the background and the watermelon separately. For the background I increased the contrast and lowered the brightness using curves adjustment layer. For the watermelon, I created two clipping masks on two adjustment layers. One of these layers were curves which I used to increase contrast and brightness and the other I used to increase saturation to make the watermelon stand out further. This is the original watermelon for comparison. I used 2 clipping masks with adjustment layers to lower the exposure of my father and to hide the original background from his photo exposing the one you see behind him in this edited photo.  For this I created a few clipping masks and adjustment layers. The blue house has two adjustment layers utilizing clipping masks to increase the brightness a little and to increase the saturation to make the house stand out more. The backgrou...

Midterm Portfolio

This is the final photo of the blue house. While editing it I used rebatement and symmetry to decide on how I should edit certain elements of the image. I made the tree on the left taller using a combination of copy-and-paste and the clone stamp tool to make it blend in a bit better. I used adjustment layers, raised the brightness and brought out the blue with the use of curves and levels respectively. I then lowered the saturation of everything else besides the house so it would pop even more. I wanted the blue house to be the focal point of the image. This edit is much more subtle, all I really wanted to do was raise the brightness of the foreground and fix the color a bit. To achieve this I used two adjustment layers, both selecting everything besides the bright background. I used curves on one of these adjustment layers and color balance on the other. This is a composition I created which added both my aunt and thi...
