CLE 10 Unit 3.2 Advice

Hi,

the first part of 3.2 is just a reflection. Watch the video, read the background info and then answer the questions you see here:

Write your answers in a word document (or libreoffice writer) and email them to me. Think about your answers before, while and after you write.

The second thing to do is make a story board about all the steps you need to go through to get your full licence. It’s like a cartoon that tells a story. You could try using word, writer, or even draw it out on paper and photograph it.

Computers 9 uses Fire Effect, it’s super effective!

 

Hey everypony!

For our next photoshop project, I would like you to use photoshop to set something on fire digitally, that was not actually on fire.

I have a tutorial that I found on the net that is pretty cool, but it is a bit vague. It tells you to do stuff that you probably know how to do, but without saying how to do it step by step.

I don’t want you to think that Computers is a hard class, just that you should work hard in class if you want a good mark, so I am not going to make everyone do that tutorial.

If you want to try and do the tutorial I like, here it is: this

You should use a different picture than the one in the tutorial though.

If you try it out and it’s too confusing, stop doing it (on the first day) and find your own fire in photoshop tutorial and follow it, just use a different picture than the one in the tutorial.

If you can’t find one that is good and easy try this one:

But use something that is not a guitar!

When you hand in your finished document, give me three things: 1, the original picture, 2, the picture modified so it looks like it’s burning, 3, a word document with the website you got the tutorial from.

Okay?

Cool! I mean hot, ‘cuz we are playing with (digital only please) fire.

Computers 9 : Column/bar Graphs

Hey, the next project is to do the same thing we did with the pie charts, but use bar graphs instead. You will make 4 Column or bar graphs, with each graph having 5 answers.

You can just make the numbers up again!

Cool huh?

So just use excel to make the column graphs (bar graphs are ok too), and then use photoshop to fill the graphs with the picture of the thing that the graph represents.

Here is an example:

Computers 9 : Pie charts!

Hey there!

You are going to make a question that has 5 different possible answers. For example, and you can not use this example, who is your favorite late night talk show host?

a) Stephen Colbert, b) Conan O’Brien, c) Trevor Noah, d) Seth Meyers, e) John Oliver

Then you are going to pretend that everyone in a class of 30 gave you an answer.  Open up Excel and make two columns that will look sort of like this: Names on one side, and people who gave that answer on the other. Make sure your imaginary people give each possibility at least 3 answers.

Then make a pie chart by selecting both columns and then using the insert chart command.  First select both columns, then (2) Click the insert tab, and select pi chart (3).

Next  select the pie chart and copy it. Right click in a blank area of the chart and select Copy.

Next, in Photoshop Select File> New> Clipboard.

This will make a document the size of your copied chart.  Go to the new photoshop document and press CRTL +V to paste it in to the document.

Choose the magic wand tool and choose one of the colors to select it.

Then get a picture that color represents and use the clone stamp to color it in that spot.

I chose yellow here, which in my chart is Seth Myers. So I will grab a picture of him and clone stamp it there, completely filling up the yellow part of the graph.

Then I repeat the magic wand. then clone stamp steps for the other hosts.

Lastly, I use the eraser to get rid of text I don’t want (Chart Title) and the text tool to put the question next to the chart.

Repeat these steps for two more questions, so at the end, you should have 3 cool pie charts, with 5 choices each. Hand it in as yourname_pi chart1 and __2, and __3

By the way, all these people are great and funny talk show hosts, but the best talk show host was this guy.

For a bonus mark, make another pie chart with 4 things about him.

Computers 9: Emo Emo Emoji times

Hello,

Today you are going to join the ranks of the people who change the world!

You will make 3 new emojis: one for the Future, one for Now, and one for the Past.

To test if your emoji exists already, do a search on duckduckgo (if you care about your privacy) or google (if you don’t).

You can also check

https://emojipedia.org/

Remember that an emoji is a simple version of the thing it represents. You don’t want to draw something really complicated, but people have to be able to tell what it is right away.

Keep your drawing as simple as possible, but make sure that no one will mistake it for anything else.
