Jessica Tenenbaum - Project 4

1. Which blend modes did you experiment with and then use in your project?

I used some of the different burns on strokes. I liked the effects although I can't say I've figured them all out yet.

2. How did you use the stacking order to produce your final results in your most
complex composite?

Having the correct stacking order really changes the look of an image. It allows to neatly tuck things that you don't want to see either behind another item, or off the edge of the canvas. I love playing with opacity and having layers show through the layers above them in order.

3. What layer effects did you use? Which layer styles did you apply to another
layer?

I used a lot of drop shadows and strokes. I copied some of the text affects to other text layers.

4. What key elements of layer managements in this module that you plan to
use in future projects?

I will definitely combine images that were originally separate photos to make new better and combined works of art. I will also use stacking order, opacity, and text layers.

5. What challenges did you experience in the process? 6. What keyboard shortcuts are you using regularly now?

The most challenging part was trying to find the right blend mode for each layer effect. I am using the ctrl D to deselect things all the time.
