Letter Proportion: looks at the overall form of the letter. Is it tall and condensed or short and squat? Does it have a tall x-height? Is it roundish in form or squarish? What is its silhouette? --> The letter form of this type is all in uppercase, block-like and thin. The line stroke for all the letters is consistent and thin. It contrasts the actual title which is much more thick and round compared to the Bebas Neue. This creates a sense of contrast and brings attention towards both the title and the subtitle, and it's not very different from each other since both fonts are sans serif.  Line Quality: looks at the specific edge of the line. Is it distressed for example? Do stroke terminals come to a sharp point or are they rounded off? Etc. The font chosen for line quality is Avenir LT std, and the line quality of it is thin, it's rounded off and its minimalistic. It’s clean, neat and round letter forms similar to the title which connects the both of them and it’s able to...

Retouching  ___________________________________________________________________________________ Spot Healing Tool  Reflection :  This tool was very much unique and useful in terms of editing pictures, especially with individual photography of imperfections on skin. This tool is commonly used in social media platforms and it's insane how realistic this tool is. I have utilized this tool quite frequently before when it came to editing minor imperfections on background pictures after using the Content Aware Tool. It's only useful after removing certain items.  Content Aware Tool  Reflection :  This tool was first introduced to me when I started using the Gmetrix system and taking the training mode for the Photoshop Certification practice and it was quite simple to get the hang of it. I really like how realistic this removal tool. This also makes it so easy for the background to seem untouched. I feel this was one of my best edited images in terms of clarity an...

 Feedback on Finn Partners Webinar:  Tahjib : While listening and partly viewing his work on the Smart Board, I realized how low he was speaking and it was difficult to follow along with what he wanted to present. I believe he should've removed the mask and sat properly while speaking with the designers. I also found that he should've elaborated upon asking what could he improve and minor questions, as well as checking up with the designers if they were following along with the topics presented. As a previous presenter myself, I also realized there was not enough clarity with the whole concept of Rhodium, I was confused at first since I didn't understand what his company was based upon until Tahjib showed the final product. Overall though, I see he put all his effort in presenting and I do appreciate that he had the confidence to do so.  Alex:   The designers stated how Alex should've removed the bear and that the border of his final Brand Ad which I believe was...

  Vibrance:  I enjoyed using this adjustment layer and I overall can see myself utilizing this in clearing up images and showing brightness.  Threshold:  This adjustment reminded me of older forms of comics and how it’s only black and white. I also really loved the look of this adjustment.    Solid Color:  I liked the purple hue it gave utilizing the color purple and other settings, which softened the blacks in the photo and using masks for the redness in the books.  Posterize:  I don’t really like the look of this adjustment layer. It makes the photo seem pixelated however, I believe it would be beneficial to use it in vintage pictures.  Photo Filter:  This was a really simple format to enhance pictures. This reminded me of just simple filters to correct the colors and make it aesthetically pleasing.  Levels:  I found this adjustment layer quite confusing at first, the same with Curves. This was really precise though, lik...

  Three Masking Techniques 1) In a Sticky Situation:  I wanted to use images from my device of the small objects but I wanted to experiment with actually using more stock images. I've been wanting to incorporate rats in my projects. I also used an image of a chewed up gum piece to be able to show that masking technique. I really loved the whole "stuck in a sticky situation" saying and I thought using a rat and gum to demonstrate that was really clever. 2 ) Bowling Pins :  Before learning masking, I would've just made a Quick Selection and tried to duplicate the image various times. That would reduce the quality a bit and make the work look quite uneven in terms of quality. This made my Vitamin Water look like I bought a whole case instead of just one. I feel I can improve and make my items look like it belongs in the picture. I can finally speed up my editing processes and be able to do much more and improve my photoshop skills.  Bottle in a Mouse:  So I thought...
