Testing 1..2..3..

Hello, been a while since I last posted on my blog so i thought i share something i've been working on recently, we've been given as multimedia students a project on pixilation and now that we've been out and about taking our random photos we need to start editing them to make them be presented the best way they can.

At the moment i do not have the original photos on me, but i've taken a random photo from google images and played around with it on photoshop, by doing this i can just take notes of what i have done to this photo and add the same effects to the ones i wish to put on in my project.

Heres the oringial photo, its a picture of the streets of San Francisco, with an elder lady walking by and a homeless person sleeping on the streets.

Now what i wanted to do with our photos is to make it look slightly more dated and set in the style of a comic book and this is what it turned out to look like..

The effects i used to edit the original photo was 'film grain', which makes the image look old and to give it the comic effect i used 'Poster edges' and by adjusting the edge thickness, edge intensity and posterization it has seemed to have worked rather well. I also used 'Photo filter' which gave me the option to change the color of the photo and allowed me to give it a sepia tone which i thought worked.



If you think theres anything you think i could have added please leave a comment of what other tools i could have used.

Whiteboard Animation

Hello, it's me again... so here's another thing we did during our introduction to Multimedia. It's suppose to be a 10 sec clip of us moving a box from one side of a tree to the other side of the tree within 120 frames as each frame is 12 frames per sec. Well enough with the technical stuff and moving on to the prjoect. Me and my groups work is abit into the clip, but you'll notice it as we signed it at the end.



I was happy with what we did, however we got abit carried away and forgot that it was a 12 frame per sec and at some point of our project we began to put speech bubbles into it, which makes it look like some scribble appeared for a moment then disappeared. I guess we'll learn from our mistakes and take that into consideration for furture projects.

My wonderful disaster with Pinhole cameras

Hey there guys and girls, my 1st post... scary! Well to the point heres my attempt of using a Pinhole camera, hope you enjoy it

There were one or two others that were taken, however I have somhow managed to misplace them somewhere. I thought the photo was not too bad, but i did ruin it by putting all my fingerprints over it. If you can't see it too well, its a picture of our wonderful building Waverley. I don't know how but the picture seems really dark compared to the others I took which seemed overly bright which was kinda weird. Well thats me pretty much for today's post, til next time. Oh! I'm Jason by the way, nice to meet you ^_^
