To start off I had to pick an image to make the word play to. I decided to pick a caterpillar. After picking a caterpillar, I brought an image of one into Corel trace and then transferred it to CorelDraw. Next I made the word caterpillar in text, fit it into the caterpillar and then trimmed it to fit inside the space of the caterpillar. Finally I brought the image into Photoshop and added colour to it.
A problem that occurred when making the project was that I kept accidentally cutting off certain parts of the caterpillar I didn’t want to.
If I could change one thing on the project, it would be to pick a more challenging image to use to make the Word Play.
Silhouette Design
The first thing I did to start of this assignment was figuring out what I wanted to make. I decided that I would create a beach with a mountain background. I started off by setting my canvas size to 6 by 6 in Corel Draw. I then created one inch borders and set a cut off for my background, which would be the mountains. I created mountains using the shape tool. Next a created a sun and water. I then got images from google images and traced them using Corel trace, I brought these all in to my project and positioned them properly. Finally I created a border using the rectangle tool.
One problem that occurred during the project, was that some of the images I brought in to trace, were not high quality after they were traced. I fixed this by getting different images off of Google images.
One thing I would like to change on my work would be the shadows on my images. I wish I could of made them look better.
