  Orignal Image  My Image  Final Result  For this project I wanted to place myself into my current favorite show which is this season of The Bachelor. I have been very invested in this season and it has been the source of some very happy memories between my closet friends I during our weekly watch parties. To do this project, I began by downloading a complete cast photo of this season and then I chose a photo of myself from recent that went along perfectly with the scene. I then placed both images in Adobe photoshop, used the quick selection tool to create a mask of myself. I then adjusted myself to better fit into the photo wanting to make it look as natural as possible. Lastly, I made sure to include my tag brush into different aspects of the photo.

  I think that this image would be difficult to photoshop myself into because their is a lot of components and objects in the image.  This image inspired me because it showcases a place that I have never been but would love to travel to.  This image makes me laugh because instead of adding pants to the one man he made everyone else in the image feel just as uncomfortable as the first guy.  This image is one that I would want to create because the illusion of all of the objects are magnified and I love how simplistic yet cool it is. 

          In this project I utilized Adobe Photoshop to transform an image into four different variations of color. The original image used in this photo is a photograph of myself on a vacation in Cabo Mexico showcasing me outside next to a large cactus. The purpose of this image was to showcase myself connecting to nature. For this project I began by transforming the image into black and white on Photoshop so that I had a good base for what came next. I began with by black and white image and choose three variations of color plates that I feel best fit this image using abode color generator. For the first colored version I chose a triad of colors, the second featuring a split complementary, and the last was complementary color palate. Once I had my colors I placed those in photoshop and began tracing over the various elements within the image using both the quick selection...

Artist Statement   For this assignment I created a calligramme of an airplane headed into the direction of a heart using a letter that I wrote to myself 20 years into the future. I chose to do a plane because I have a huge love and passion for traveling and desire to take many trips in the future. The reason that I included a heart was because In addiction to my overall love for traveling a lot of my travel is to see family and friends who live in different states and even different countries. I wanted the image to be representative of both my love to travel, traveling to see loved ones, but as well as being representative of be following my heart whoever I go. To create this image I used the pen tool to create the numerous different shapes/ pieces of the airplane and then I pasted my letter into the parts of the plan using the "envelope distort".  Letter to My Future self  Dear Twenty-year old Sara,  I am writing to you from a study room in Palm apartments in t...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3NBKRywEbNs This video showcased a very simple and basic tutorial for using adobe illustrator. It introduced illustrator and showed the basic tools that are associated with it. Based off of this video alone I believe that both the white and black selection tools will be easy to use/navigate with. On the other hand, based off of the tutorial the align panel and pathfinder look like they will be more complicated or complex to use and navigate. Overall, I found this video to be very useful it provided be with a basic understanding of illustrator, the tools, and how to create/navigate easy drawing with this software.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GzumUieDPY This video featured a quick beginners tutorial for using adobe illustrator.

In addition, the video also began by sharing useful keyboard shortcuts that I believe will be very useful for navigating illustrator. The rectangle...

      The internet was originally used for both academic and military purposes. It's primary focus was to facilitate communication between research intuitions and government agencies, this included emails and file sharing. ARPANET was a software that forecasted the internet. It was developed by the United States Department of defense. Often referred to as at the "fathers of the Internet" are Vinton Cerf and Bob Kahn in the 1970s. These two played a crucial role in the development of internet protocol software TCP and IP which later became the foundation of the internet.

The World Wide Web was developed by a British computer scientists named Tim Berners-Lee in 1989. The purpo...

      Hi my name is Sara Lemieux, I am a sophomore here at the University of Tampa. I was born in Minnesota but moved to Chicago the summer before freshman year of high school. My major is a general concentration in Advertising and Pubic Relations with a minor in communications. I enjoy spending time with my friends/roommates, traveling, warm weather, and working out. Prior to this school year I was majoring in Entrepreneurship which resulted in some struggles and even fails in previous courses. I did not feel that entreneurship was the right fit for me, so I made the switch over the summer. Ever since I have not only throughly enjoyed my major and the courses I am in, but had achieved the best semester grades I ever have.       When it comes to this Digital Media course my first initial feelings is that this I expect to learn a lot of new, but useful skills. I do not have much knowledge or sk...
