In this entry I'll show the process of making Assignment Two.

1. First off, open a file sized 320 px by 240 px in Adobe Flash. 2. Then use Adobe Photoshop/Illustrator to create the image that you would like to use in the motion. I used frame-by-frame method. I created 23 frames in Photoshop and saved all of it in .PNG formats with the same size as the stage in Adobe Flash 320 x 240 px.
3. After that, I import all the images that I had just created in Photoshop to the Library in Adobe Flash.4. I used blurring technique and tween to make the image of the hand rotates. In order to do that, first I need to change it to Symbol.

5. For the background, I use a brownish-rustic texture background. The grey bar shows that the background layer will stay constant throughout the animation.

6. For the moving typography, since I used frame-by-frame method, I keyframed the next word after the next word so it will look typed out.
7. For the hands, I convert the hands image into Symbol for tweening purpose. I tween the symbol so it will rotates and use Alpha channel to blur it and play with the opacity.
8. Next, I use 3 different size of fonts for every keyframe so that it'll look like it had been zoom in.

9. After that, I saved it with exporting it as .swf file.

That's all :D

October Calendar

October Calendar

01. Extract the image using the same way as the September Calendar and pasted it on a new A4 file. Once you have done all that, brightened the image using Image>Adjustment>Selective Colouring with this settings.
02. By using the same technique with the previous calendar, used a 2500px white soft brush and dabbed it at the topmost of the image.
03. I also use the same starlight image and set the layer mode to Screen.
04. Added images of light and either set the layer mode to Screen or Lighten.05. I duplicated the image of the model and resized it to a smaller size and positioned it towards the left side and set the layer mode to Lighten.

06. Do the same thing but this time positioned the image to the right top corner of the model and set the layer mode to Pin Light.07. Use Curves to brighten and contrast the image more.08. Go to Image>Applied Image, duplicated it, then transformed it so it will look like a mirror reflection.

09. Add the same colourful bokeh texture like before but this time set it to Hard Light. Play around with the opacity.

10. Next, add a fractal image as texture, duplicated it to both sides of the image and set the layer mode to Lighten.
11. Add the calendar template and we're done!

Calendar theme

We decided to use dynamism of light as our theme. So I pondered on what to do with my composition and I finally decided to make it as double image. Yeah, so let's see how I done it.

01. Extract the image you wanted to use using the Polygonal Lasso Tool and erase the edges very carefully using the Eraser Tool.
02. Then, opened up a new file, with the size of A4 & black background and pasted the extracted image unto the new file.I duplicated the image layer and set the duplicated layer mode to Vivid Light to brighten up the image.

03. I use #1b0702 colour and fill a new layer with the Paint Bucket Tool. I set the layer mode to Exclusion, so it will give a blue-ish, red-ish tinted colour to the image.

04. I still think that the image colour wasn't satisfactory enough, so I used Image>Adjustment>Selective Colouring with this setting.

REDS

YELLOWS

WHITES

BLACKS

04. Make a new layer then by using a 1500px soft brush, dabbed the topmost part of the image with the brush.05. Opened up a starlight-like image, copy and pasted it on the Calendar file.

06. Add light effect by copying and pasting some Light related images.
Set the image mode either to Lighten or Screen.

07. Using a dotted and swirly brush, make a swirly line across the image using bright neon colour.08. Add some more images of Light. Set the layer mode either to Screen or Lighten.
09. Make a new layer then Image > Apply Image. Duplicated the applied image layer and transformed it so it would be a mirror reflection to each other.

10. I added a swirly fractal texture and set it to Lighten because I think that it's too empty.
11. Next, I added a bokeh kind of texture and set the mode to Overlay to brighten the image with more colours.

12. Then I add in the calendar template by Copy and Pasting it to my calendar image.To enhance the image more, I use Curves to brighten and contrast the dark spot.

Done :D
