In class Exercise Revised - Extraordinary within the Ordinary

The concept is about "the amazing life strength", and the focus is on the small little plant growing out from unsoiled and "lifeless" place.

This photo is taken outside of SoC. This little thingy tries its best to continue its life despite of being chopped off.
Meanwhile this guy grown out from somewhere without the supporting element eg soil. It is amazing to think of how strong is their will to survive.

Final Project - My Ideal Princess


Concept

Seven Disney Princesses (Mulan, Ariel (Little Mermaid), Jasmine (Aladdin), Aurora (Sleeping Beauty), Cinderella, Snow White, Belle (Beauty & the Beast)) are perverted to show the various sins in society today. The 7 Deadly Sins, also known as the Capital Vices or Cardinal Sins, is a classification of objectionable vices that have been used since early Christian times to educate and instruct followers concerning fallen humanity's tendency to sin. The currently recognized version of the sins are usually given as wrath, greed, sloth, pride, lust, envy, and gluttony.

Class Exercise 4 - On Photoshop



1) Undestructive Editing
- an editing technique which prevent the source to be "destroyed", allowing the user to go back and forth along the process. Achieved through layering, masking, and smart object.

2) Layer Mask
- perform pseudo-editing on a separated by linked masked layer instead of the source itself.


3) Smart Object
- instead of duplicating the entire image as a single layer, we package it into an object, and dupliacte it to the other layer or file. Similar to OOP in programming, the object maintain it's state and characteristic, thus allowing further modification on the object in the future without destroying it.

Thank you for reading. =)
