Good morning ladies and gentleman. Hope your day is off to a great start. Today I would like to discuss some things that you should know about cameras and care for them. You'll find a like below for a lesson entitled Getting to Know Your Camera. Please watch the video of the lesson that I would be giving if I was there with you. Afterward we will start on our next project. This is a bigger one, similar in scale to the merging project that we started the class with. I have broken in down into three Photoshop parts and making a wallpaper in Illustrator. Today I would like you to do just the first two parts. You'll find links for these below. For this project you will need to use one of your texture photos and any school appropriate photo of yours. The only thing that I would suggest is that the photo that you choose shouldn't have anything too modern in it. A smart phone, tablet, etc would kind of defeat the purpose of aging a photo as these things are too new to really effectively work in an antiqued photo. Other than that you can use any photo of yours that you would like!

5. Review/What’s Next
Periods 4 & 5
Hello everyone. Hope everything is going great at school. Yesterday I asked you to watch the video and make a cover page for your typeface search. Today I'm giving you more time to work on perfecting a cover, printing it, or completing the search. Keep in mind that I will be grading the cover by how much effort you put into it. If you have used quite a few of the techniques, tools, or effects from the video, you'll get the full ten points for the cover page. It's honestly pretty easy to see if you have put a good effort into using the features in Illustrator or whether you have just thrown something together and called it a cover! Take your time and learn Illustrator. It will help you later on in the class. So that's it, plenty of time to work. Have a great day!
