Now let me tell you more about Adobe Illustrator and how I really love using it. Adobe Illustrator is a vector graphics editor, people use this to make ethier logos, cartoon, fonts or other things as well. In class, we learned the basics tools, we used the selection tool, direction selection tool, the shape builder tool and the most important in my opinion the shape tools. With these various things we created a wonderful amazing pizza, Mr.B showed us how to make a well fine pizza with a tutorial. We started by clicking on the shape builder tool and clicked on the polygon, now i know what your thinking how the heck are we suppose to make a pizza with that well if you go to the shape builder tool icon you can see a polygon, you click and it will tell you how many sides you want, of course, we need to make it 3 sides and that will be our slice already done!. But there is still more to it like putting color. If you go to the window and go down you will see swatches, just like photoshop where we also had swatches. There you will see various colors, but there is more to it. If you click on this little icon it will take you to a category, there you can pick a variety of things, but since we are doing foods we click on it. Once we added the colors on the pizza we can add the crust and the pepperoni. Mr.B showed us also how to make a perfect circle as well which i thought was very useful. Then we had to duplicate the pepperoni, we used the same method which was to hold the Alt key down. But there was a problem how are we supposed to take the pieces of pepperoni that are extending over the edges, that's where the shape builder tool comes to play. First, we need to select our whole pizza, once we do that we use the shape builder tool and hold the Alt key down and there you can select the parts that are extending over the edges and delete them. And there you have it a nice pepperoni pizza, you can try to add other toppings as well if you want to make the pizza amazing.

The quarter I've been through was working on Adobe Photoshop. But as always there is a new subject we have to learn this quarter, and that is Adobe illustrator. Yes you heard me right we have started a new program and I will tell you a little bit about Adobe illustrator, and talking about my opinions on which is better Adobe Illustrator or Adobe Photoshop. But first, let's talk about Adobe illustrator, personally, this is a really fun and amazing experience so far, They're are a whole bunch of amazing things and new tools we use now. What's really special about this program to me is how you can use shapes and other things to create a logo or anything else. But right now what I really want to talk about are the many ideas of what I want to do in Adobe illustrator. What I want to make or use in Adobe illustrator is making are own logo. Mr.B gave us an assignment talking about making a pizza, and to me, it was a really amazing and fun experience. I still want to see it happen in the future but it will be fun t make are own personal logo and maybe have a shirt of it, which will be amazing. There are a lot of possibilities that we can do now, but we need to have some more ideas in my opinion that will make it fun and amazing. Now let's get to the real question which do I prefer?, in my opinion, I will have to go with, drum roll please... Adobe illustrator!, now I know what your thinking, I've been with Adobe Photoshop for quite some time now and to me, it's starting to get a little bit boring. I've learned lots of new things about Photoshop-like using a variety of tools and etc, working with it was amazing and was a way for me to learn more about editing. But there is something about Adobe illustrator that makes it really fun. But overall that's my opinion on them, I will see you then.
Summary: - Different ways I could use Adobe illustrator. - Preference for Adobe Illustrator/vector And Adobe Photoshop/bitmap. - Which do I prefer?. My artistic techniques have grown stronger over the past couple of months. The sketches really helped me improve my ability to draw different places of the human body. For example the hands, the hands were really difficult to draw when I did it by myself I really didn't understand the basics of drawing a hand like how to start or how to finish. It taught me a lot of things. They taught me how to start with a container to begin drawing the hand. It also taught me that we start drawing hands using cartoon-like designs. This was really amazing to me how drawing a simple shape of the hand turned it into a work of art. The same goes for the final project, I really didn't know how to make a posed figure. This taught more about shape, shades and also cross-hatching as well to make the figure pop into action. So far this whole sketch assignments really helped out with my way of understanding art and helped me increase my peformance in art overall. Our teacher Mr.B has announced that we are moving on forward with creatures. Hopefully, I can learn more from the sketches we are going to do later on, but overall I would like to thank my teacher for giving me this opportunity to show him and learn from this assignment.
I didn't really get to explain what my class is and how it looks like. Let's get started on how it looks like shale we, so once you enter the room you will see 4 rows of a bunch of computers. Then once you have entered and looked at the computers you will see a sign-in space to the right-hand side. There you can sign-in whenever you're late for class and our teacher Mr.B will give you that look in your eyes saying why are you late in huge caps. Speaking of Mr.B I haven't told you about him. Well, let's just say he can be tuff with you at one point giving you lots and I mean lots of assignments. When I first met him he told all the students and parents on how his class goes very fast and I'm saying it right now he means it.
But when you get to class he will greet you with a big smile saying its a "wonderful day" and that you should smile and honestly it really helps me get my hopes up when I'm feeling down so Mr.B if your reading this thank you for making my day something great. I have lots of friends too that help me lets start with Issak. He is really cool and inspiring he would always help others in many ways and would say to never give up ever he also likes anime, he loves dragon ball too. Next, we have Leslie, she is really funny and energetic she fun to hang out with and crazy too in a good way and she also likes anime like me. Then we have Mario, he is a chill dude and a funny one, he likes talking about halo and other games as well by the way he is the person I sit next too. Finally, Marco, is a funny guy as well very good with computers as well oh and also he DOES NOT believe in global warming. Issak and Marco will always have an argument talking about it. Well there you have it a long summary of my class I hope I can meet new people or talk to other people in my class more it will be a great way to know them. When I first looked at Photoshop I really didn't understand things at first. This was a new source of knowledge that was mind-blowing to me. When we first started using Photoshop it felt like a new open-world for me. There were different shortcuts that our teacher showed us and made it easier to move around. When we went to use Photoshop on an assignment it was really difficult. I really didn't understand what to use or what to do in that state I was in. I really didn't understand the layering part of the assignment. It was strange that you had to press on the layer to ethier erase something or add something. When we started on the football assignment things got really confusing for me. There were more difficult things in that assignment that there was in the other.
The easiest thing to do in Photoshop is moving around and zooming in and out into an object. I know it sounds foolish but trust me it really is. It was really easy switching to them with the shortcuts our teacher gave us. There are some other things I'm good at now that I have learned like using the brush and using the eraser. I need to get used to Photoshop to fully understand more concepts in the future. But overall things are moving nice and easy right now and I hope it stays that way. What I think about Photoshop right now is that it is a really amazing source for people to use right now. It's fun to use and really interesting for people, I hope that people will visit this source later on in the future for use. There are some other people who wrote the same story as me. Some talk about the things they hate in Photoshop and they're first impression when using Photoshop. Some even wrote tips for others to use too. "How Photoshop changed my life".
