LECTURE
Introduction to Photoshop : 
- Tool Box : Photoshop provides several tool sets in the Toolbox and can expand the tool sets too reveal additional
- Lasso Tool: allows you to draw and pinpoint specific areas of a document.
- Pen Tool : usually used to create a path from scratch and add points to create a path. The pen tool is used to create extremely precise shapes and paths using manually placed anchor points.
- Layering : layers are different images stacked on top of each other. The advantage of layers is we can edit without disrupting the other images.

TASK
We were asked to make 3 digital collages from the images given in the google drive using photoshop. When creating the collages, we need to remember the compositions as well. Here are the 3 digital collages that I made. 

Composition-1
Fig 1.1.1 Collage 1 (11/10/2025)


Composition-2
Fig 1.1.2 Collage 2 (11/10/2025)


Composition-3
Fig 1.1.3 Collage 3 (11/10/2025)



REFLECTION
From this exercise, I learned how to make collages using photoshop. It was actually my first time using photoshop and it was still quite difficult due to the many tools available, so I was not used to it. Also, the app kept crashing when I was doing my work, so it was pretty annoying. But, I learned quite a lot of tools in photoshop and how to make digital collages. This experience was pretty hard, but it was fun to explore new things.

The photos that I took are myself, spaghetti, noodles, my hand holding chopsticks, and a plate. I took all of the photos myself using my phone and my desk light to help with some of the lighting.
