JUNIORS! If you are working on your movie poster, wonderful.
If you are finished early and bored, I'd love you to try out this text tutorial in Photoshop and make a nice goodbye message for our seniors. We will post it for them on the blog and Instagram on Friday. You could do something like, 2016, Congrats Grads, etc.

AND Don't forget- You can submit your finished product for extra credit :)  :)  :)

SENIORS

Your movie poster is due by the end of the day TOMORROW.
Senior fail list is due Wednesday. That means you will probably be on that list if you do not turn in your movie poster.

JUNIORS:

Your movie poster is due FRIDAY.
There is a large chance you could fail if you do not turn in a movie poster, or if it is broken.

Liquify celebrity retouching

Today we will take a short break from our movie posters to learn how we can use both frequency separation and the liquify tool to do celebrity style retouching on bodies.

Download the Ivana Trump jpg from the M:/ and open it in Photoshop to begin.

 REMEMBER: We aren't retouching because anyone is "ugly" or imperfect. We are retouching because it is a profitable industry and valuable skill, and to learn the ways the media uses photoshop to sell us a false idea of perfection.

*** Turn in your magazine cover by the end of the period ***

When you have turned your magazine in, I want you to look for movie poster ideas that you could recreate 100% yourself. I want you to SAVE at least 4 posters you know you could redo in your own style, with ALL your own sources.
