As we work on enlarging prints in the darkroom, we are simultaneously going to be working on some Photoshop assignments in the digital lab! You will find a Photoshop tutorial and handout in the previous post (Boxer Restoration).
1. Scan your collage (the original) into Photoshop (if you need a refresher on how to use the scanners, see here), save it as a jpeg, and post it to Flickr. ALSO create a B&W negative of your collage, save it as a jpeg, and post that to Flickr, too. Add these to our class group.
2. Name tag Photoshop assignment!
Using your portrait, gum photo, color collage, and B&W collage negative (must somehow incorporate all 4), create a name tag to use on the darkroom/digital lab board:
- Find your portrait & gum photos on the hard drive (go to Shared Items in the Finder window>Base Station>Sturges> our class folder. (Make sure to click the eject icon on the Base Station after getting your images, so that others can access it!)
- Drag your collage images from Flickr into Photoshop
- Create a new document that is 5" tall by 3.5" wide at 150 resolution
- Make sure to include a text layer that has your name and period on it
- Save a PSD to your USB drive
- Flatten the image and save it as a jpeg
- Save the final, flattened jpeg onto the hard drive in the "Final Name Tag" folder
- Use the tutorial & handout below to help you restore the boxer
- Make sure to save it as a PSD on your USB drive as you work
You can print out the Boxer Restoration handout if you like! Make sure that you change the page formatting/layout to horizontal first.
