Clone Project

1/27/2012




I think this piece came out really cool. I actually throw shot-put and discus for the track team so I thought it'd be a cool idea to show all the positions in a spinning shot-put throw. I would have done discus because the throw is much more dramatic but the gate was locked and we didn't feel like jumping it was a good plan. The trick was figuring out which order the layers had to go in to look right, I must have reordered them four or five times. I learned how to overlay layers and make multiple layers visible at the same time better than before.

Second project and I have to say it had me a little frustrated at times. The Drop Shadow didn't want to behave in any logical manner for this piece. So I ended up redoing the base layer with the mouth. Nobody else seemed have this problem. Don't know if it's operator error or what, but when I reset the background the drop shadow worked fine.

 My first use of Photoshop EVER! I'm pretty pleased with the final result the only thing I would change is the little line under the pancakes' lower lip, it got put there when I liquified the hole and I couldn't fix it...
