Digital Imaging Exercise 2: RECOLORING BLACK AND WHITE
3. SELF REFLECTION
From this module, I’ve learned a lot of new techniques since it’s the first time I’ve used Photoshop. At first, I struggled a bit with the layers and masks (I often messed up the layers and was confused about the masks), but after some practice and exercises, I got the hang of it. Overall, it’s been fun and new for me—I never knew we could recolor photos or experiment with so many effects in Photoshop.
Speaking of recoloring, Project 1B (Recoloring Black & White) is probably my favorite exercise. We get to play with colors, and it feels similar to makeup (so fun! I love choosing lipstick colors for the model).
My favorite tool is definitely the ‘Quick Selection Tool.’ It’s convenient and has helped me a lot during the exercises and practice (so much quicker and easier!).
In conclusion, I’ve learned a bunch of new skills, and it’s been a lot of fun! I can’t wait to explore more Photoshop tools in the future.
