Image Resolution Blog

 This is my image resolution blogger. 

1. What is the difference between 300ppi and 72ppi?

The difference between 300ppi and 72ppi is that both of these have different purposes. 300ppi is the standard for print images; this would allow it to print high quality images; making sure the image is crisp. The reason why 300ppi is the standard for print is because the human eye struggles to see the details when the ppi is over 300. Having the ppi at 300 for print allows for seamless printing for the person. 72 ppi is the standard for web images. This is because when the web image is at 72 ppi, it loads faster. This allows for a seamless experience for the person. I got this from just a google search. Here is the link:

2. Why is that important for the graphic designer doing print projects?

This is important for the graphic designer doing print projects because it allows for the designer to create their best work possible. Ensuring that you have a grasp on the fundamentals for print (image resolution, color management, file formats, etc) makes sure that the designer does not make any costly mistakes that can prevent the design's effective and accurate translation to print. Having it at 300 ppi follows the industry standard and the human perception capacity. I got this from just a google search. Here is the link:

3. Why is that important for the web designer doing websites?

This is important for the web designer doing websites because it allows for a seamless experience. 72ppi is the standard for web images because it makes sure that images are optimized for loading times while maintaining good clarity on most screens. This resolution strikes a balance between image quality and file size, ensuring that web pages load quickly without sacrificing visual appeal. Using 72ppi as a baseline ensures compatibility across a wide range of devices and screens, making it easier to create websites that perform well and look good on various platforms. I got this from a google search. Here is the link:

4. Add new information not included in the lecture.

Ppi is not necessarily relevant unless it is for print. Kevin Gourley, a professional photographer states, "The only time the term “PPI” is relevant is when you choose to print a photograph.  The number of Pixels Per Inch determines how large or small to print the photograph.  The PPI specifies how many pixels are to be printed in each inch. For the sake of simplicity, let’s say we had a sensor that created images that are 1000 pixels wide.  If you printed those images at 100 PPI, the print would be 10 inches wide (100 pixels in every inch, over the span of 10 inches = 1000 pixels).  If you printed that 1000 pixel wide image at 1000 PPI, then it would only print 1 inch wide." Gourley addresses a common misconception that  beginners who are trying to learn about resolution would be confused about. I got this from Kevin Gourley's blog. Here is the link:

Self-portrait in Color Blogger

Image
This is the self portrait in color. I decided to make a piranha plant from Super Mario. The image below this was my inspiration for my work: I didn't want to just copy it completely. So, I decided to put my actual portrait instead of the piranha at the top and bottom right where the pipes are. I decided that as a final touch I would also put a question block from Super Mario. I thought it was a nice touch since there was a bunch of space above the three pipes with my portrait.  After the review, I made some changes to the self-portrait and now it looks like this:  I decided to make the background sky blue because to me it fits with the overall theme of the portrait in color. I added two bricks on the side of the question block because in the Super Mario games you can find two bricks and a question block in the middle in that order. I added coins because they can be found in that order as well. Finally, I added a star on the top of the middle pipe because the star is the best i...

Self-Portrait Grayscale Blogger

Image
  This is my self portrait in grayscale. This project was one of the most frustrating projects in the entirety of my time being in Graphic Design. I lost my file twice because it somehow didn't save, then, when I had it, I lost most of my work. I believe that I could have done better work than what I did. I almost mixed up all of my layers as well. What also made me take so much longer than it should have was the fact that I was too zoomed in while doing this project. I wanted precision at the start. However, by the end, precision was the least of my concerns, my objective was to finish it because it's been too long. Despite all of this, I enjoyed doing this project and would consider doing this again when I am more experienced with adobe illustrator and photoshop.

Expressive Words

Image
The expressive words project was one of the easier projects in my opinion. I really enjoyed manipulating the words in my project until I was content.  For the first part of my project, the first word that I chose for this project is the word donut. I decided to turn the letter o and turn it into a donut by putting another o inside the o.  For the second part of my project, I decided to choose the word animal. The first two letters and the last letter of the animal stayed the same, so I can change the rest of the letters while still being able to understand what the word is. Then the letter I got turned upside down into the ! sign. The  m was actually ^ grouped together with another ^ in order for it to look like an m. For the final a in the word animal, I decided to just use the @ symbol.   For the third part of my project, I decided to choose the word stretch. For this word, obviously, I stretched out the letters as far as I possibly could.  For the fourth part...
