Blog Assignment #5
The purpose of this blog assignment is for you to conduct a self-evaluation
survey of your work in the class. For each of the following questions, I would like
you to provide visual examples and an argument that demonstrates your
progress/growth in the class. Be persuasive in your writing and be precise when
choosing your examples (examples can come from Quizzes to projects).
1. What is the most significant accomplishment in looking at your Midterm or
Final? You can talk about technique in Photoshop, investigating your Big
Idea, creating a meaningful artwork, etc.
A: My accomplishment here in my idea is the technique retouching the picture especially to make color effect and light and shadow effect and also to combine them in a complete work. Another progress here might be the understanding to the word "dream". I did a lot of work researching and deep the idea I was inspired and express them onto the work.
2. Choose a project in the class and discuss your most challenging learning
experience in Photoshop. Focus on a technique or concept from
Photoshop that was difficult at first, but that you mastered by the end of
the quarter.
A: Retouching was difficult for me at the beginning that things I put onto the background look super strange and unnatural. There seems to be serious color and light & shadow effect problem. After studying the tutorals and practising a lot, I find it easy right now.
3. Compare two projects from the quarter to compare and contrast how you
achieved making meaning in the work. Try to showcase in your examples
an improved capacity to making visual images that mean something as
opposed to being a showcase of technique.
A: The first work looks great but I think the contrast is still not obvious. Also the midterm has the big idea dream, but the dream here means things I want to do. For the final, in contrast, the work is more formal in the contrast work and the meaning here is more obvious.
