Midterm Projects

For this picture, I selected the girl in the first picture and moved it to the American Idol Group, using the select tool. I also used the lasso tool to select the originating girl(Paula Abdul) and erased her(with the erase tool). I enlarged the girl in pink with the free transform to fill in the white spaces. If not enough, i used the dodge, burn and smudge tool to cover it up. At a point, i lowered the opacity and erased the area containing the coca-cola then brought back the opacity. 


For the top picture, i selected the area of the girl and moved her over to the picture with the cow. Using free transform, i made the girl a proportioned size.  i then tried to match the quality of both pictures by blurring and adding noise. i erased the parts of the girl that had excess picture. Finally, i made the image black and white by going to adjustments then clicking black and white.


I used the little girl near the bride and used the lasso tool to select her. i then selected her and placed her into the picture. i used free transform to make her around the same size as others. i used the erase tool to rid of excess image. i then made the girl black and white by doing the same steps as the last picture. i then cropped out the bottom of the picture because the girl was cut off from the original picture.

Social Issue Superheroes



A superhero is someone who is willing to stand out from the crowd. Willing to fight for the needs of others. They are supernatural. Courageous. Confident. Intelligent. Dedicated.

Batman needs no glory, he is silent in the dead of night and will fight crime without your praise.

Iron man seems all over the place and lives by his own rules, but at the end of the day he demolishes crime with his charisma and intellectual abilities.

Getting angry may seem like a fault, but the Hulk uses it to his advantage and defeats evil.

Real Life Heroes:
Martin Luther King Jr., he saw the cause and went for it. His dream was for equality and he fought for that up until his final breath on this earth.
My mom, it was just me and her in the beginning, she provided for me, for my happiness and looks to the needs of others around her. She is selfless.
I had not known him well, however, I know he was a great man. My uncle Bert, it seemed he would live a life full of worldly things but there was a change in his heart. After his life was changed he started travelling around the world and speaking to others for them to change. He followed the Great Commission.

Social Issues of Today:
-Poverty. More and more people are living a life where there is no happy ending at the end of the road. Everyday they do not know if they will be fed, if they can even live to see the next day.
-Depression. Some may think there is no way out of this life. Nothing is going the way they had hoped for. That life is no longer worth living.
-Alcoholism. Large quantities of alcohol may ruin a person. One of the biggest reasons for homelessness is the fact that all that person wanted to do was to indulge themselves in drinks. Drinking does not get you anywhere in life, just loss of consciousness.

 The Outcry is the voice of the people who cannot speak up for themselves. He fights for the provisions of poverty-stricken others. The hammer represents him building back up a fallen community. He travels around the world with his sidekick, Silencia. Together, they rebuild lives.
