Morphing

The third quarter students showed their wild side by morphing themselves into various animals. After choosing what animal they wanted to become, students partnered to photograph each other, taking into consideration the pose, angle, and lighting. Utilizing the lasso and magic wand tools, students created various layers that they then manipulated with the eraser, clone stamp, and color adjustment tools. Look at our zoo!

Having Fun with Visual Puns

Simply put, a pun is a play on words. A visual pun is a drawing, cartoon, photograph, etc. that arranges objects in a particular way in an effort to illustrate that play on words.

The Sixth Grade Photoshop class made some visual puns of their own! The first step in this project was to brainstorm ideas that were creative and humorous. After that, the students used Adobe Photoshop to blend multiple images together to create the desired effect.
