Week 13 final



CLICK ON THE SLIDE SHOW TO ENLARGE AND READ TEXT!

Photo #1 I used gimp and its bucket fill option along with its add text option to manipulate this photo
Photo # 2 I used gimp and its filter entitled light and shadow then went into lighting effects and used option one I continued by changing the color to blue and the position it appeared to create the illusion of police lights on the rear of the truck I also used the add text option
Photo #3 I used gimp as well as its hue/lightness and saturation option. I manually adjusted the settings to be HUE: -180, LIGHTNESS: - 100 and the SATURATION to -100 as well to form more of a black and white image I then continued to use the add text option as well.
Photo #4 I used gimp and a filter named neon under the edge detect option along with the add text option.
Photo #5 I used gimp, I first began by using colorify which is located under the colors tab and what this does is allows you to pick a color and then it replaces the original photos colors with different shades of the color you chose next under colors again I chose posterize which is used to minimize the amount of gradients used. In the ending result I chose to use shades of green and changed the posterize level to 3
Photo #6 I played with the brightness-contrast options setting the brightness to 39 and the contrast to 101 ultimaetly giving the photo a kind of antique look to it.
Photo #7 I added 3 layers to the original for a total of 4 layers all it took was going to the layers tab choosing add layer then in the toolbox choosing the move tool to move each layer. on the last layer I created I also decided to invert the colors and add a filter entitled supernova to it I also added text using the add text tool.
Photo #8 I added another filter called a mosaic which is located under the distort sub-menu of filters I decided to use a triangular mosaic as opposed to a rectangle or circles simply because I like it the most I also added text using the add text tool.
Photo # 9 I chose to use gimps color selection tab and from there I used a tool known as a value invert where it inverts the brightness of a colors pixel. I also chose to use the text tool as well.
Photo # 10 In my final frame photo #10 I used the blur tool and blurred out the Samuel Adams which was embroidered on my hat other than that I used the color picker tool in conjunction with the auto bucket fill tool

  1. Love this, John, and thanks for posting the originals as it's great to see them full size. I love the variety of filters you used and how unique most of the images are. It's amazing to me that something as mundane as a truck can look so totally cool with just a little help from Photoshop! Good work.

  2. John, i like how you put little facts throughout your story. My mouth dropped when you said the motors could withstand 1,000,000 miles! Great job on your effects. I think that they made the story of an 18 wheeler seem more interesting than if there were just plain pictures to view. Amazing what photoshop can do and amazing how well you showed you understand photoshop and all it has to offer.
