chess piece

We had to draw a realistic chess piece, it was fun, it took us 2 weeks to finish it and all of ours came out exceptional! I thought it was fun and I don't usually draw realistic but ever since I finished this drawing it changed my mind and I am now starting to draw realistic.

For the background our teacher said we had to make it abstract so it makes it interesting to look at...i think it does too.

Open Your Eyes

What is the main focus of the video: It's mostly the discrimination against other races, and what people actually feel and what they belive they can change.

Describe how the video gets this point across: Racism hurts people and our video is showing the impact of how people feel and where they come from and that it doesn't matter who you are or where you come from, you should be treated with the same and equal respect as others

What techniques are used in the video to help convince the viewer of the point of the video. (Look at shots, music, content, text, voice, voice-over, sound fx etc.): For our video we took close up shots for the "emotion" we used wide a thick font so it's easy to read and so it stands out, when we were recording the voices we wanted it to be clear so people can understand what they were saying, all we basicly used was music in the background, and we carefully planned everything out before shooting.

4. Are you satisfied with the final product? Why/why not?: Yes i am definetly satisfied with our finished product. This was my first time i have ever done something like this and i think it was exceptional.

5. Whether or not you answered yes to the last question, describe how you would improve your video now that it's finished. Be specific in terms of camera shots, sound, quality, lighting etc: When we were finished the video and we looked at it i thought maybe at some points better lighting would of been better but besides that i think it went well, and it turned out good.

1. What is Surrealism: surrealism is literature and movement put together to create an image to express the artistic values of the 20th century.

2. Show 3 examples of Surrealist art (listing the artist’s name): the first one ( the butterfly) is by Vladimir Kush ,Moonlight Sonata, the second one is from Artsgrie, Panic Attack Or Anxiety. And the third one is from Chris O' Doherty, Large Egg Resting Softly

3. Pick one Surrealist artist and briefly discuss their view on surrealism: I pick Artsgrie because i like the concept about the train trying to escape the waves in the desert, its kind of random but it creates a good picture. I thought there view on this peice of art was different yet satisfying to the audience.

4. Find two examples of Surrealism in modern day photography using Photoshop (or…perhaps not using Photoshop) (list the photographer and explain if you can, how it was done): I chose Oliver Cereto because i like his picture. He used photoshop for this picture the steps he used were, at first he placed the sky and the background, although he used different colours that you don't really see in the sky, and so that creates some of the surrealism with the balcance tool. And then he duplicated the sky and repeated the previous steps. after that he erased some of the "useless details" and in the option bar he selected the blur brush to blur the sky. After that the "model" was incorporated he used the selection tool and clicked on the " add layer mask" button. He position the model in the middle of the page and by pressing the " image adjustment" he starts to play around with the models dress colors and her hair color to come together with the background. And through the hole photoshop tutorial he is basically just adjusting the models dress and background colours. And after all that he just finds some images from a website and puts them on the picture he is creating, he then deforms the branches and makes them apart of her body


And then you got a man named:Jeffrey Michael Harp,he created a picture with this woman's face coming off her head. When i was looking at his picture he said nothing about using photoshop...so i don't know if he did or not.
