Because my Name (Sam) is only three letters, I added an i on the end to be Sami, a name that my friends call me sometimes. First, I went outside with my partner to take pictures, then when i came back, I opened the Name-4-photo-template.psd in photoshop, then I dragged my first photo of an S to the first box to add it to the line up of photos, then I continued that step with my other three photos of my letters. Then I merged the layers and saved it and named it sam-maddox-nameproject.psd. I did have some trouble finding the letter M outside when I was searching for letters. I guess I'm pretty proud of the M that I found in the wooden mural by the girls bathroom. I think the best thing about my artwork is that I was able to find most of my letters were in the murals around the school. I think that I could have found something a little more challenging for the letter I.

My name is Samantha Maddox and I am an exotic animal psycologist and I live on an animal reservation in Southern Africa. I went to Moorpark college in LA for 4 years to get my bachelors degree in Animal psychology and behavior. Then I transferred to The Southern African Wildlife college to further my knowledge of animal behavior of african animals and to train to become a ranger to protect the elephants of Africa from poachers who are killing them for their ivory tusks. I also have two children I adopted from an African orphanage to give them a better life. I used this photo of Gigi Hadid, Kendall Jenner, and another model because they are all very famous and really inspirational for young girls especially my age because they don't just promote their model figures, they support all typed of people. I have my own dreams of becoming an animal psychologist and an african animal ranger but I also would like to promote positive attitudes and to be supportive of not just others but yourself. They are amazing women in the fashion world and in my eyes they aren't just dumb models, they are my ultimate role models. How I did it:
-First I found an image on google, specifically a large one. -Then i found an image of myself that matched up with the person in the other photo. -Dragged the photo of myself out and used the lasso tool to cut out my face. -Then I dragged the photo of my face out to the other one and changed the opacity to about 60% -Then I used edit-transform-scale and make it the correct size. -And I also used edit-transform-rotate to line it up nicely with the photo underneath. -Then I made a layer mask by clicking on the little rectangle with the circle in it down in the lower right corner to create a layer mask. -Once I created the layer mask, I used the paintbrush tool with the color black to color over the places of my photo I did not need. -Once I lined it all up, I used image-adjustments-brightness/contrast to alter the brightness and contrast to help match the skin tone of the person in the other photo. -I also used image-adjustments-color balance to give the photo more of a yellow+red contrast to give in a more tan glow to the skin. -Then I went to layer-merg layers to merge them together and then saved it under Maddox-Sam-Layermask1/2.jpg |
