Mood Board Part III: Color Board



Mood Board Part IV: Execution

1. Places: I will go to Philadelphia and take pictures of the downtown area, love park, and the train stop.

2. Textures: I will take pictures of trash, flags, money, and army fatigue clothes. I will use the flag texture as a layout for the ground. I may also use trash for the ground texture for another photo. I will use money as leaves on a tree. The army fatigue will be someones clothing and possibly a building.

3. Objects/People: For this section of pictures, I will use my friends as homeless people and may even use actual homeless people. I will have my friends make their own funny signs to hold up.

Final Thunderstorm Pictures

In this photo, I used the filter gallery on the grass, the background, and the log. For textures, I placed clouds in the sky and used the overlay tool so they could be seen. I also used the filter gallery on the log to make it look a little more log like. For my objects, I used my friend Adrienne holding my umbrella, I used Adrienne's sneakers, rocks from another picture, and my rain boots. I used the colors from my mood board on the umbrella and the rock. 

In this photograph, I used the burn tool on the sky and clouds. I added in the cloud in the upper left hand corner for my textures. I added flowers, umbrellas, my friend Adrienne sitting on a bench, and a bunny rabbit as my objects. My other textures are the grass and the water that I added in. I used my colors on the flowers and the roots of the flowers. I used the clone tool to create more umbrellas in the water.
