Face Swapping Pictures



2. Though the instructional video was only 25 minutes, this being the projects original appeal as the last of the 7 projects to complete for this class, I ended up spending a couple of days making the personal image simply because of minor time-consuming adjustments to mend these faces together.

3. Because of low resolution, after i transformed this guys face to match the larger girls face I got some very undesired pixilation which hindered the authenticity of this projects skin blending potential.

4. Finding a good picture to use for this project took much time because of how specific of a picture I needed. These specifics being skin color, face angle, resolution, lighting and camera proximity.

5. I would put my face on the picture I created to save time.

7. 4 because of how hard it is to find a picture and the absurd amount of time spent tweaking it. Though I did learn an important photoshop skill in the end, this being the use of the "Curves" feature

Pop art picture




1. This unit was made to teach people how to convert a portrait into an image with a classic pop art effect with the use of photoshop tools and it kind of worked.

3. It turned out to be a lot harder than I thought to stay in the boundaries of the image when putting the colors in. I used a picture of a man for my personal picture As well as the same colors that were given for the picture of the girl and the color of the lips came off as very feminine and odd looking.

4. Figuring out how to paint using the selected colors from the custom pallet of colors that came with the files was surprisingly very hard to figure out and took a long time, partially because I refused to re-watch the instructional video and partially from being distracted.

5.I would use a very outlandish color scheme for my personal image to prevent me from having to find a proper lip color and to make the image a lot more attractive to the eye.

7. 6 It was either deceptively short or I was very distracted and took a lot of time on this picture.
