Photo Editing Challenge

The way i created mr. oneeye’s second eye is as follows: I copied the right eye, free transformed it and rotated it. I made sure the proportion of the eye was correct and it was alligned with where a natural eye would be on a cat.

For the ripped paper, I copied half of Ho’s face from under the eye, and then flipped it. i ligned up the edges of the picture. I used a soft eraser to make her real face come up on the parts where it exhisted, and i left the bottom corner since an erase there would make the white tear show. As for the actually paper, I copied and transformed little squares of proper paper that was close to the colour that was ripped. I then pasted it covering the ripped part and tear marks. I used a bit of the blur tool to smoothe some of the edges.

Born into Brothels

1. The film was intresting but not very enjoyable. What stood out for me is the aggression the children receive, and the future they were headed towards.

2. I learned that photography is a pretty big industry. Some people may be born natural photographers. Life is often taken for granted by people in northern america especially. Those children in the brothels wanted a shot at life and spend time and effort trying to survive.

3. I think the world needs to try to promote donations and set up more organizations that focus on helping the less fortunate. This can save many lives fast and prevent children from being born with a bleak future.

4. I am probably willing to donate money and maybe start a small charity within school to raise money.

5. Off the top of my head, one song i can think of that sings about the change in the world is “How far we’ve come” by Matchbox 20. It also has nice images on major events that happened in the world during the video.

6. A non-profit organization that is important to me is “Kids with camera’s”. It is important to me because they give children that have a nearly pre determined future of prostitution or alcohal and other drug sales a chance to go through school and make something of themselves. They do have a website but I haven’t visited it yet.

7. As a whole, we can create work like pictures and/or illustrations and attempt to auction it off for charity money.
