Project 2

In this project, we have to create a surrealist photo using photoshop then we have to use adobe after effect to animate it.

Before this week's class, we have to make up an idea o what we want to do for this particular project, after that we have to council our ideas to Mr. Martin and also Mr. Jeffrey. After our sketch is approved we need to make a mock-up for the approved idea

Few of my sketches

I choose to digitalize my banana train ideas.

Fig 1.3: train photos

because I couldn't find any of the right banana pictures on the internet I choose to take the banana picture my self and do my best to make the perspective that matched the train.

Fig 1.4: Banana Image

Not really a professional way of doing it but I'll give it a try.

I proceed with the photo manipulation process, First I change my background banana picture to be an HD size. After that, I create a mask on the picture of the banana I took then copy that layer to my background picture, I need to transform my banana into the right place so I use the free transform tool
and also do some scaling and also transforming the shape.

Next, after I added a few layers on to make the banana look believable, I added a filter to slightly desaturate the banana and add a few blending modes to add shadow and highlight. I also use some detail by using a brush and paint them.

Moving on to the animation part, Mr. Martin told me to do a smoke moving
I go to After Effect does the animation process. since I'm new to after effect I search for s tutorial process.on how to make a smoke effect.

First, I tried to make the animation on Photoshop using the timeline tool but t doesn't really work since its a frame by frame doesn't make it really smooth.
