 My name is Emily Berkowitz and I am from Connecticut. I really enjoy horror/thriller movies especially the Annabelle movies because the museum with the real Annabelle doll is in my town, about five minutes from where I live. I listen to all types of music but I listen to a lot of country and rap music. My favorite music artist is definitely Post Malone.  I also enjoy being in the kitchen cooking and baking. 

I am excited for this class because I want to learn more about the Adobe suite, especially Photoshop because I am a freelance photographer. I have been doing photography for about 5 1/2 years and started my business at the beginning of my senior year on high school. My favorite photographer by far is Peter McKinnon who I have learned a lot from. I. have also sold multiple copies of one of prints through a local cafe near my house. Lastly, I am very active as I play ice hockey and field hockey and I also go to the gym most days of the week.

Photoshop HW 2

Image
 I think it would be very hard to Photoshop myself into this image because of all of the text that is on it.  This gave me an idea for the "Somewhere"project because I think it would be cool to do something in France, specifically in Paris and I like how the Eiffel Tower is still in the photo but not the focal point of the image.  I thought this was really funny because you would expect them to just photoshop him next to her or something along those lines not her dropping him.  This cloud effect is something I might want to recreate because I think it gives a good illusion and adds a lot to the image.

Illustrator Tutorials

  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vHKwYhkE7U This video focused on three main tools: pen tool, pathfinder, and typography. The pen tool at first seemed easy to use but looked like it was something that would be harder to master. It can be used for almost anything and you can always go back and change what you were working on. Pathfinder is used to combine any two shapes, once combined you can change the color and size as the shapes are bonded. Typography was also discussed; it is a very useful tool in Illustrator. It is easy to add text, resize, and change color and font. You can also change the entire look of the text to whatever you want it to be.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EXIZWii_Ps4&list=TLPQMjEwMjIwMjIh65hw8WVAFA&index=2   This video focused on the pen tool, pathfinder, shape builder, color panel tool and the clipping mask.
