Exhibit 2
Background Information:
For this exhibit I incorporated many different skills and design principles I can do using Adobe programs.
Design:
Contrast: I added white squares behind the 2 smaller pictures so that they stand out more. Also, by leaving the main photo bigger vs. the 2 smaller pictures it creates contrast in the design.
Repetition: I used repetition by using the brushed hearts on each picture and used the colors from her shirt as a color pallet. I also found a font style that matched the style of the hearts.
Alignment: I used a left flush for the 2 smaller pictures and right flush for her name and date.
Proximity: I kept the brushed hearts close in proximity to each picture for proximity.
Skills Used:
Adobe Bridge: I took about 30 different pictures and was able to sort and pick what picture I wanted to use.
Adobe Camera Raw:I enhanced the photos by adjusting the exposure, contrast, whites, vibrance and saturation
Adobe Photoshop:
Adjusted the picture with the crop tool.
Used the rectangular tool to make the pictures pop.
Created the layout of the design in Photoshop by using rectangular shapes, changing the opacity on the rectangular shapes.
Fixed some dark veins on her forehead with the spot healing brushÂ.
Got rid of the peep hole in the door using content-aware fill.
Used photoshop brushes to add the heart design elements.

Revisions:
I added the maroon strip to the left of the layout
I used the clone stamp tool to add more of the blue door to her left elbow, so it wasn't as close to the edge as it was.
