2nd Quarter - Begin with Photoshop and Exercise 7 Due October 12

Welcome back classes,

We begin the 2nd Quarter with Adobe Photoshop.

Adobe Photoshop is the industry-standard image editing software, used worldwide by professional photographers, amateur photographers, and designers who want to perfect their digital images.  

Exercise 7 Due October 12


The idea is to change history. Alter an instantly recognizable photograph so that the context has been significantly changed. The appearance of the original photograph must remain intact. The new situation must still look believable.

 *DISCLAIMER* This project is not intended to make light of some very serious and often tragic situations. Rather, it is an effort to teach Photoshop skills in a manner which turns tragedy into creativity. The idea is to change the historical context of very famous photographs.


Step one: Choose six different photos and change the context of the photo using photoshop.  You will find the photos to use in the Mr. Komar Shared Folder under Quarter 2 > Exercise 7.  For one of the photos, you may choose a site from around the world and put yourself there.

Follow my step by step instructions in the initial presentation to get started.  You will find the presentation in the same folder.  Or you can click here to download the presentation.

Step two: Make sure the photo still has its realistic look to it
