Sydney Sehr Ps PL 1


Video 1 Response: 

After watching this first video, I have discovered the Lasso tool, which selects a part of an image you draw a circle around, then hit edit to remove it. I think I will be able to use this tool easily and frequently when I want to get rid of something, especially if the background is simpler. Another tool that I learned about in this video is the patch tool, which can be used for replacing a part of the image with another, which I also think I will need, and I will be able to use easy. What I found interesting about this video is that he would give definitions about what tool is, and the words in them which I thought was very helpful. 


Video 2 Response:

    In this video, he focuses using the Spot Healing Brush, which will clean up a surface. He gave a tip to make a new layer which is helpful. You can change the size of the brush, and then click which sounds pretty simple and I think it will come in handy. The other tool he discusses is the Patch Tool, you can select an area, and control where a patch is coming from and going, which I think is even more helpful than the Spot Healing Brush after watching this video. I found it interesting and helpful that he showed us the keys to use these tools on the keyboard, and their icons. Also, he showed how to save it in a way that the image is still editable.


Video 3 Response:

    In this video, he quickly goes over the most common photoshop tools, he shows that there are different types of each tool. For example, within the Lasso Tool, there is also the Magnetic Lasso Tool, that uses a sort of stand to see what its outlining or grabbing to. I think that is helpful to have different types of each tool. Another tool he goes over is the Magic Wand tool, and that is helpful when you add a quick area of color. This tool is a bit confusing to me in this video, but I think once I know how to work it, it would be helpful. I think this video is interesting because he showed all the tools that fall under the main tools, that can help in many different situations.

Beginning of FMX 210

Image
     Hi! My name is Sydney Sehr and I am a student studying psychology at The University of Tampa. I am originally from Burlington Massachusetts. Some fun facts about me is that I am the youngest daughter with two older brothers, and I was a cheerleader for 11 years. Some hobbies of mine include hanging out with friends, shopping, tanning, and going to the gym. My biggest accomplishments would be my cheer competitions and getting 1st at Leagues and Regionals, and 2nd at States and New Englands, and also on another team winning All Star Worlds. Another accomplishment of mine I would say is getting into the University of Tampa! Although with accomplishments, there are always failures. Some failures of mine would be getting rejected at other universities I had in mind, not winning some big cheer competitions, and almost failing a math class in high school as it is not my strongest subject.       I have selected the FMX 210 class because I needed a Visual ...

Sehr Calligramme

  Final Caligramme: My Letter To My Future Self: Dear Future Sydney Sehr, I hope you’re doing well! I am writing this letter to you for your digital media class, how was it? I know that this class was a requirement but I hope you learned a lot from it and are able to use it in the future for jobs, or anything else? How did college go for you? We majored in psychology, and were wondering whether we wanted to focus more on developmental psychology or forensic psychology. Which did we end up choosing, or did we not choose either? Speaking of psychology, did you get any jobs that you are really interested in? Did you go more of a therapist route or a research route? Did you ever end up studying abroad, I know how badly you wanted to go to Italy or Greece. Also at school we were a founding member in the sorority Zeta Tau Alpha, so cool and I really hope that helped you out for your future opportunities and jobs. Did you end up having any leadership opportunities within the sorority, lik...

Sydney Sehr Autoscopy

Image
  Original Files Used:  Final Image: Artist Statement:  In this piece of art known as an Autoscopy, I have placed myself into what reminds me of a fairytale fairyland with lots of nature beforehand, and as well as the nature I have added. I feel like this image also represents me as I am a very outdoorsy person. Growing up, I had a fairy themed bedroom and this really sparked the inspiration for what I wanted to do. I was able to play around with tools, and colors, and really stick myself into a fairytale like I've dreamed of when I was little.
