Throughout two class periods, I worked on making a collage that depicts a day in the life of a Mercy student. I wanted the collage to be bright and colorful because each day is full of happiness and joy. I used a number of tools on Photoshop such as the cropping tool, the hue/ saturation tool, black and white, gradient map, selective color, and the magic wand. Those are just some of the main tools that I used while making this project. I wanted to create the collage centered around the Mercy crest because I believe that it helps Mercy students remember how fortunate we are that we are able to receive a Catholic education. When I was taking the pictures to use in the collage, I kept in mind to avoid mergers. One element of photography that I used was simplicity in which I took the picture of the Crucifix.
Photoshop is a great program to use when dealing with pictures and it is fun to mess around with all the different tools. It is an exploration of technology that opens your imagination above and beyond regular editing.
