Robot Final 4/26

Image
Reflection on Robot Draft:   As I began to search for images for my robot, I came to realize how much cleaner an image looks when using high-resolution images and using the Quick Selection makes the work much easier in the after process. I started with the idea of using bicycle parts for the contrapposto section of the robot, making it seem as realistic as a robot as possible, in the end, I really like that I went with his little hat, it gives him character. For the most part, the only complicated part is looking for high-resolution images online. Most of them were copyrighted or turned into a weblink which was unfortunate. So I started searching for parts as "parts for sale" to get as close as possible for a good looking image to download. The overall composition was a success and helped me go onto finding the background much quicker, therefore it was really just efficient planning and putting it all together.  Reflection on Robot Final:   Throughout the whole const...

This file tends to have a larger file size and can handle a high amount of colors while keeping the load time fast enough to use online. gif : (graphic interchange format) a raster file format designed for relatively basic images that appear mainly on the internet. can support up to 8 bits per pixel and can contain 256 indexed colors. allow images or frames to be combined, creating basic animations. bmp : (bitmap) a simple raster graphics image file format designed to store bitmap digital images independently of a display device and it can handle multiple color depths, profiles,...

Image Resolution 4/3

- What is the difference between 300ppi and 72ppi? The difference between 300ppi and 72ppi is found in the amount of pixel information (or dots) for every square inch of the image you are viewing. The more dots/pixels the image contains, the sharper the image will print. When designing graphics for commercial printing purposes, the images should be 300 dpi. - Why is that important for the graphic designer doing print projects? It's important for graphic designers to understand the difference to be able to properly proportion images and be able to produce a high-resolution image for printed advertisement. It's also important so the design looks neat, clean and straightforward with no blur or "fuzz" due to stretched out pixels.  - Why is that important for the web designer doing websites? It's important to choose the correct the high resolution to portray the website clearly, and when presenting information on this website. Web designers rely on images to directly p...
