Digital Productions 120 - Blog, Animal Merge and Avatar

There are four assignments in the Photoshop unit the quality of the level of creativity and experimentation that you bring to it is up to you. I have provided a shot by shot tutorial in SMART Notebook for the animal assignment. See attached. I expect you to rely heavily on youtube and other tutorial sites. After you leave this class you will need to be comfortable looking for information yourself online. You will find the tutorials easier to follow if you find one create using Photoshop CS3 as that is what we have.
