This past semester during class the other PLP 8’s and I have been working our photo editing skills this includes things like app smashing, (using more than one app to edit a photo), line draw animation, and using SuperimposeX. In the past week we were given a challenge to use only the tools given in the photo app embedded in our iPads to create a personified picture. Honestly after months of using different and more advanced Photo editing techniques this was challenging, at first… To be real for a sec it wasn’t really that challenging it was just irritating that we weren’t allowed to use specific tools given in iwork or add any shapes, filters, or heal out anything we didn’t need from our photos. The challenge was to take a series of photos of everyday objects in a clean-cut background so that we can give them a wordless story through the markup tool.
In the end, this assignment helped me to show off my skills when using the photo app alone. I created 4 awesome images and they helped me to reflect on how everyday objects being photographed and edited can help to teach me and improve my techniques when editing real, important photos.
