• The following tutorials are here just to get you started. Research online to see if you can find more.

• Try to be as detailed as possible when completing this assignment. Take your time in colourizing all the aspects of the photograph.

2. Upgrading your Photoshop Skills

• For the next few week we will be focussing on Photoshop. If you have not spent much time in this program, I encourage you to choose this assignment option.
• Watch the following tutorials in order:

• http://tutvid.com/the-basics-of-smart-objects-photoshop-cs2/
• http://tutvid.com/all-about-photoshop-curves-adjustment/
• http://tutvid.com/create-a-chrome-text-effect-photoshop-cs2/
• As you are watching the tutorials, I will expect you to try out your newly learned skills in Photoshop. Make sure to take screen shots!!!
• In your logbook entries each day I will expect you to tell me:
• What tutorial you watched.
• Anything new that you learned.
• At least 3 screen shots of what you worked on in Photoshop as you were watching the tutorials.

3. Design your own assignment.

• Your must have your assignment pre-approved by Ms. McGill.
• The assignment must include an online tutorial (video or written) that you will follow.
• Logbook entries are essential if you choose this option. If you miss one logbook entry, I will ask you to choose one of the other assignment options. The logbooks must be as detailed as possible, including multiple screen shots.
