Reflection Journal for Lab 5



     In lab 5, I used brushes to recreate a drawing. The objective of the lab was to recreate a drawing that I have already made but with brushes and colors. Another objective might be to test our creativity.For example, how we can think of different brush types to represent the texture of objects from our drawing. I did this lab by recreating my drawing in Photoshop with different sized brushes to match my drawing, different colored brushes to represent the color of the object in the drawing, and different types of brushes to emphasize on the texture of the object in the drawing.


     This lab required Photoshop, which is a photo editing software. Lab 5 is relevant to web design because it teaches you to be more creative, and I think in the field of web design, creativity is very important. With creativity, you can do a lot of things that other people couldn't do, and it would not only amaze them but also be very useful sometimes, depending on where you use your creativity. I see myself using these skills in the future when I am making something relative to what I imagine in Photoshop.

Blending Images

This particular blending images technique enhances the overall design of the medium by using different colors which relates to the name of the medium itself since colors are related to art. The design of the text is important as well since it shows creativity and enhances the overall design even more.                                                  The following text filled with image technique enhances its overall design by blending the image within the text unlike the example on top. It also enhances the design by using and image that is related to the text since an image of water is related to the text "water".

Reflection Journal for Lab 7

 In lab 7, I used different kinds of filters on the same photo 6 times. The objective of the lab was most likely to see what each kind of filter does to a picture. To do this lab I created 5 copies of the same photo and used 1 different photo on the top right. On each photo I used 6 different types of filters, Artistic, Sketch, Blur, Distort, Liquify, and Diffuse filter. I added clouds in the background and lens flare.   I used a software called Photoshop to complete this lab. This lab is relevant to web design because it shows you what different filters do. But in general, the key thing that I learned is to try different things since it can give you different and sometimes better results. In design, trying new things is important. Sticking to the same thing all the time makes it boring. I will use these skills in the future when I want to apply a certain filter to a certain photo.

Windows 10 vs Mac Sierra

             There are many differences between mac and windows. The main difference is the user interface. For example, In mac OS there is a dock and in windows there is the task bar. The two look very different in terms of design. Also, Most software are built to run on windows and so mac OS is limited to the software it can run but that doesn't mean mac cant do anything, It can, its just that some software don't run on mac OS. The user experience for the both are great and overall they are just operating systems. Not a big deal.
