Basic Photoshop Techniques Project :)

Basic Photoshop Techniques Project :)



In my Contemporary Media class, I followed a number of videos that introduced me to basic photo shop techniques. I learned how to work with layers, combine images, use layer masks, and add creative graphics, text, and effects. I will use these skills to combine design assets into a simple, unique composite for print or online use. I had fun following along while designing my own image.

Photoshop Logo Project

Logo Project

For my third Contemporary Media project we created a personalized logo using Adobe Photoshop.


The logo process involved the following steps:
  1. First you go to Adobe Photoshop , Then go to file new and make a new file. 
  2. Next you made a layer and painted it a solid color. 
  3. After you go to the text tool and apply your name 
  4. Then you make another layer and put it on top of the two layers you have 
  5. Finally , just start painting! 
In conclusion, I think it's really cool to learn how to create logos in this class because logos are used for everything.
