Film Strip
![]() |
To create my film strip I started by opening the picture I saved. Using the crop tool I made a square around an area. Then I copied that and opened a new canvas. I made a square and pasted the picture inside. I did this for the rest of the picture only having more squares, rectangles, and rotated squares and rectangles. I made the border of each film strip a different thickness so you could tell where the squares were and so there was a variation of different film strips.

Face
Mokey Wilson
To create my face I first started by using the elipse tool to create a circle. I used the free form on the circle so the face didn't look to round.I used the I eyes I had already made and changed them a bit. I made eye lids for the eyes and made the eyes look more like eyes and less like circles.
For the nose I made an oval then using the sub select tool I made the oval look like a nose by giving the oval nostrils and shape.
The hair was made b making small ovals and giving the ovals a gradient of folds with light and dark brown. The mustache was the same color only that the mustache has a linear gradient.
The skin had a linear gradient with the main color being a peach skin color and the lower color being a grayish brown giving the appearance that Mokey had just shaved. The neck was made using a rectangle with the same colors and gradients.
I made the ears my making circles then using the free from tool I gave the circles the shape of an ear.
For the lips I made small ovals and using the sub select tool I stretched the ovals and gave the tips a point. I did the same for the bottom lip and in the middle I did the same only making the color darker to look like the person had a tongue.

Eye
I created my eye by first creating the eye lids. I used the elipse tool to create the eye lids then using the free form tool I stretched eye lid out. I made the fill a linear gradient with two different colors. Very light brown and skin color. The Iris I created by using the elipse tool to make the circle. I then made the circle two different shades of blue with a cone gradient. To make the pupil I made a circle using the eclipse tool then made the gradient linear with colors gray and black. I made a smaller circle using the eclipse tool white and below the pupil so the eye had a shine effect as real eyes do. I made the eyelashes by using the line tool then the free form tool to bend the lines. I just copied and pasted many eyelashes. For the eyebrow I made a square and made the fill a pattern. Then using the free form tool I curved the square so it looked like an eyebrow.

Spot Color
Rain Tree:
To spot color the the rain tree I used the magic wand tool and increased the tolerance to get big areas. I then zoomed in and decreased the tolerance to get the smaller areas that were harder. I made the everything besides the tree sepia tone which is under creative which is in the commands at the top tool bar.

Sunset:
My landscape was the sunset. To spot color the sunset I used the wand tool and since there aren't many objects it was pretty easy to spot color the sun. I left the tolerance the same and got the water and sky then slowly made my way around the sun. Everything besides the tree was gray scale which is under creative which is under commands at the top toolbar.
Before:
After:
Red Squirrel:
To spot color the red squirrel I used the lasso tool and made big sections gray scale. To get the rest of the squirrel I zoomed in as much as I could and used both the lasso and magic wand tool to get the small edges that were hard to get at normal. Gray scale was under creative which was under commands at the top tool bar.

Name Paths
Name Paths
To make my name paths I first used the text tool to type my name. Then under modify at the top tool bar I clicked on convert to paths. Then I un-grouped the the text and moved the text around to give each letter space. On the internet I searched textures and I saved 6 images whose color was blue or was a shade of blue. I opened the picture in a new document then copied the image. In a letter I right clicked and pasted the image inside. I did this to all the letters each with a different texture. Afterwards I made the letters close and grouped them back together. I made the canvas gray because it makes the blue stand out.After grouping the letters and changing the canvas color I cropped the canvas to be a bit bigger then the text.

Butterfly
To make my butterfly I first started by making a square over the canvas and making the square brown with a wood texture. The layer above that I made a smaller square with oilslick texture and a green fill. The main background was a smaller square with the fill light blue.
To make the grass I made small ovals using the Elipse Tool and stretching the ovals using the Sub Select Tool. Instead of using a gradient I made the ovals have a pattern of Grass-Large. I copied one oval and pasted many more then grouped them together.
For the butterfly I started with a oval then used the Free Form Tool to give the butterfly shape. I made the oval light brown with a grass texture. For the wings using the Elipse Tool I made circles and using the Free Form Tool I gave the circles a wing shape. For the top wings I made the gradient satin and made the colors pink and light blue. Over that using the Line Tool I made lines and made the fill the same light blue as the gradient pattern. For the bottom wings I made the gradient satin and made the colors purple and yellow. Over that using the Line Tool I made lines and made the fill the same yellow as the gradient pattern. All wings had a texture of grass. The butterfly had antennas which were made using the Line Tool then using the Free Form tool to bend the antennas. The eye was made using the Elipse Tool then using the Free Form Tool.
To make the flower I started by using the Elipse Tool and I made a circle with a solid brown fill and a grain texture. The flower pedals were made using the Elipse Tool and stretching them using the Sub Select Tool. The pedals were purple with a grass texture. The stem was made using the Pen Tool and had a light brown fill. I made the leaves using the Elipse Tool. Then using the Sub Select Tool I stretched the oval out. Then using the Free Form Tool I made the indents in the leaves. Using the Scale Tool I made the leaves small so they were proportional to the rest of the flower.
For the sun I started by using the Elipse Tool. I made the circle with a linear pattern with the colors orange and yellow. I then gave the circle a zoom blur filter.
Using the Text Tool I made my name. I made the font color bright blue so it stands out against the dark green. The font for the text was Lucida Handwriting.
