Class 9 Assignment 5


Below are the screenshots for the Open Office presentation on building the shuttle in Rocketworld. I began with placing my name on the title page, and subsequently put a screen shot of a different stage in the rocket building process in each following slide, accompanied with a brief description. Between each slide I used the animation feature to trigger different transitions.

Midterm #8

                                                           Edited in Photoshop
Not edited in Photoshop

The two photographs above are a before and after photo that I improved using Photoshop. I used the blur tool to take out some of the creases in my skin, as well as get rid of a bit of 5 o'clock shadow. The blur tool was also used on my hair, in order to get rid of the stray hairs. I also used the paint brush tool mixed with the smudge tool to attempt to whiten my teeth. It is a midterm exercise from the Immersive Education course that I am taking at Boston College. The course is called Discovering Computer Graphics. For details, visit the immersive BC portal at http://ImmersiveEducation.org/@/bc






Midterm #7

This is a picture of the actor Morgan freeman with his eyes covered by a second image. I used Photoshop to resize the second image to the correct proportional size, and then used the lasso tool to highlight and trim the image into a circular shape. I then copied and pasted the image, forming a second layer, onto the original picture of Morgan Freeman. I used the rectangle tool and paint bucket tool to highlight the bottom portion of the photo, and used the text tool to put in the writing. It is a midterm exercise from the Immersive Education course that I am taking at Boston College.

Midterm #4


This is a greeting card from Rocket World. I first had my avatar sit down in Rocketworld, where I then took a screenshot of him facing me.  I opened the screenshot in Photoshop, using the crop tool to cut away the majority of the screen, and then used the text tool to write my greeting. I then saved the file in a .jpeg format as opposed to .psd. It is a midterm exercise from the Immersive Education course that I am taking at Boston College.
