Color Models
Still confused on RGB and CMYK? Learn more about CMYk & RGB. I found another interesting article, but only RGB. Try mixing the different colors of light and pigment in this online applet.

Play with the calculators above. Each calculator gives the same data, use whichever you find the most useful. Notice, red is already filled out for you. Can you figure out where I got those numbers? Try recreating red to figure out where they all came from in the calculators. In the document, fill in the tables for each color, using the calculators. When finished, screenshot each color model and post them on your blog.

You Are What You Eat
For the next project, you will need to catalog the different things you eat for about a week. This project will be explained in more depth at the start of class.
Collect images of the different foods you've eaten. If you can find them on solid color backgrounds, it will be easier. Next, take another photo of yourself in photobooth, and open it in photoshop. Open up your food images in Photoshop as well, and using the lasso tool, magic wand tool, or just the simple eraser, try to separate the food from the background. Try to create a portrait of yourself from the foods you've eaten.
We'll continue this through next week, allowing you to slowly build up more foods to use for your portrait. Look at some examples below of food art. If you haven't finished the other photoshop stuff, you can work on it once you get to a stopping point for the day.
This will be a project, so you will need each part of the design cycle. Investigate, Plan, Create, Evaluate.
What's a collage? The internet seems confused on it. There are many people who think just a collection of pictures side by side is a collage. Luckily, those who create tutorials for photoshop seem to know what they're talking about.
