What did you learn?

Within photoshop I learned different techniques to edit photos in many different ways. With these techniques I have learned that I can create a lot of different things such as this project, a holiday card.

What was easy?

I thought that it was easy once I got the hang of the standard tools within Photoshop. I will say that photoshop is pretty complicated and honestly intimidating trying to use everything that photoshop has to offer.

What was challenging?

Like I said above photoshop is such an advanced app that it does get very challenging the more you use it.

How could your submission be improved?

I think that I could have blended the Elk horns in with the background a bit better on the front. I probably could have added some more wording and pictures, but I like the more simplistic approach which is what I tried to do.

How could the professor improve the assignment for the next class?

I think the assignment was good. I think that it gave students the ability to grasp the more simpler tools of photoshop as well as the chance to play around with the app and figure out what works and what doesn’t.

How might you apply your knowledge in future assignments or work scenarios?

I think that using photoshop could come in handy when editing photo’s. I also learned some skills about graphic design that could come in hand when making business cards, logo, and other business worthy things.

How did a specific reading or video found outside of class  inspire or help you?

I didn’t really run into any readings or videos that inspired me. It was more memories from past experiences in using photoshop that inspired and excited me to try different things within photoshop.
