Contact Sheet















The first row of my contact sheet consists of the same picture but at different resolutions. The resolutions range from 1200 dots per inch to a lowly 72 dots per inch. I changed the resolution by going to “Image Size” under the Image drop box and entering a new number resolution in the resolution field.

For the second row I chose a picture of fireworks in Disney to change the color scheme and settings on. First I enhanced the colors and second I changed the tone to duotone meaning you can set two underlying tones on a black and white image.

The orientation row was all about cropping the picture and setting the dimensions to determine if the picture would be landscape, square, or portrait.

In the framing row the goal was to crop a picture zooming in for all intensive purposes but keeping the picture size itself at 1 inch by 1.333 inches. The tricky part was to make sure that your picture didn’t loose resolution, as you cropped deeper into it.

The content row had me using the crop tool again this time to take a picture of something commonplace and by cropping and enhancing one part of the picture turn it into a picture of something unrecognizable.

For the purpose row I got to test out all kinds of effects tools and see how they changed the original picture. I chose to use the Darkstroke, Neon Glow, and Palette knife effects because I thought they changed the picture in a cool way, and because I was the most surprised by how they changed the picture.
