ID HW 1

 

I think that InDesign won't be too hard to learn since we have been using Adobe programs all semester and they work in somewhat similar ways. The pages feature seemed like it was a little bit confusing but I more or less understand how it works after watching the video
Some of the tools seemed really intuitive, like the frame tool. I liked seeing how that feature works and I feel like it will definitely be useful. Overall, nothing in this tutorial seemed too difficult to grasp and I feel like I am comfortable enough with Adobe products to be able to pick it up quickly.

This is a video by the same person as the previous one and I really like how he teaches the program. The skills showcased in this video are definitely more advanced than the previous one, but also were explained in an easy to digest way.
The most interesting part of this video was him discussing how to format the text to look good and also he delved into some text effects which made the design really pop. Overall this seems like a really good program to be familiar with, I could see myself using it to make pitch decks for films I'm working on.

This video was useful because it gave a wide variety of skills that are good for a beginner to know when using this program. Although it covered some of the same stuff from the other videos, it was good to retrace some ground and make sure some of the important features would stick in my head.
Mainly this video focused on text and image formatting which is good because that seems like the most commonly used features for this program. It also covered how to use tables, which was good because that seems like a more obscure feature that might actually have some practical use.

PS HW #1

  I feel like the selection tool will be the easiest to work with because it is somewhat similar to the pen tool in Illustrator, which I became pretty efficient at using. I think I am most interested in figuring out how to alter the lighting of an image (shadow, highlights, etc.) because that seems really difficult but also an essential tool to creating believable photo edits. I have heard a lot about Photoshop's AI features so I decided to watch a tutorial on it. I am very impressed with how advanced the AI is on Photoshop and I am interested to think of ways to use it in the future. I am, of course, concerned about AI tricking people into believing things that are not true, but for now it is just a fun feature. This video gave a really good overview of a variety of topics in a short amount of time. I feel confident to begin using Photoshop, although I still have much to learn. One thing that struck me was the amount of keyboard shortcuts the person in the video uses, and that is ...

Animation HW

 https://youtu.be/uawQR5UudtU?si=BSrjHuQ1SUZtgntA This tutorial was useful because it was really quick and gave a good broad overview. I have learned animation before so I was able to grasp the basics, although animating in photoshop is new to me. https://youtu.be/9b0_3U4olW8?si=g69U7ony6-mvAXYR This was a more in depth video and got into the tools a little more. Frame by frame is the kind of animation I learned in the past so I feel confident, nothing was too new to me. https://youtu.be/0U7hNoN-Ypo?si=eD5pIvKkmCkfxBz4 This was another good tutorial. It was a bit to beginner-ish for me but ultimately still useful. Overall, I feel pretty confident in my abilities.
