  2. I thought the unit was great. I really enjoyed it. You could apply the skills from this unit to a class like Geography. For Geography you can create virtual maps of areas in Photoshop or Illustrator to make a vector-based map. You could use these skills to touch up photos to put up around your house or use them to make a logo, banner or anything for a business.

  3. I really liked the photoshop/ graphic design, video is my favourite but I still enjoyed this unit. I liked the tutorial because we learned lots of new things, even though I ended up doing a really easy one in the end. This unti help a lot with photography because sometimes we work on photoshop. And making posters for other classes.
    I'm excited for the thext unit and the culminating project.

  4. I really enjoyed the unit of graphic design, I think it is probably one of my favourite units we do all year. I like how creative we can be, and how we get to be the designers of our projects. I would apply this to my other classes with my creativity, I would be able to come up with more ideas that are interesting and be able to refine them better. I think at home I would be able to make online things maybe like a scrapbook or a picture slideshow, I would have the techniques to be able to do this alone. For a buisness I would be able to advertise things better and bring a unique technique to it maybe.
    Overall I really enjoyed the unit.

  5. I liked the Graphic Design unit. The projects were really creative and fun. I could apply this unit to another class when designing a poster, or doing a creative assignment or other unique assignments. I could use these skills at home when editing pictures,making scrapbooks and with a local business making posters, business cards, brochures or advertisements.

  7. The things that we learned from the graphic design unit could be used outside of this class for a variety of different things. Some things that we could use our skills for are making advertisements for companies or making a sticker that represents something you like. You can also use it to make things for family events, by making a brochure or pamphlet for the event. You can also use the skills learned to spice up any report with a few added pictures to the reports for English or business class

    i could apply this to other classes or in my future if i ever needed tomake posters or signs for a particular subject. It can come in great handy if i ever wanted to edit some pictures to hang up on my walls. or if i ever wanted to get in the photograpghy business it will be a huge help in taking a simple picture and making it great...

    Well I am in media class with Mme. Parfit, and I feel she will have some sort of project that I will be able to creat a poster, for an advertisment for example,and I will now have the skills to be able to creat an awesome looking poster. My mom is also trying to get more dog walking clients so I helped her creat a flyer with her information to put up in local stores.

  15. I really enjoyed the work I did in this unit. I gained a good understanding of photoshop and what makes a good design. I can now take a lot better photos because I know what makes a good composition and the rule of thirds helps make photos more interesting. I can also use my knowledge of graphic design to make better graphics for programs I make on the computer and to retouch photos to make them better. In the future I could use this to design an ad for a business(maybe my own the future) because I know how to make it visually appealing and grab people's attention. I can now design and come up with good ideas involving pictures, ads, and photos.

  16. I'm taking photo this semester and we are regularly using photo shop. Because of com tec, I now no how to use photo shop sucsessfuly, and can apply my skills in that class. At home I'm now using photoshop.com for my photos on facebook, and I'm really liking the results, and understanding how to apply techniques. At a local business like my work, we are constantly making posters for local events. I now have the confidence and skills to creat a well presented poster. Heather Mowat.

  18. This unit helped me alot with being able to apply graphic design techniques to the outside world. I leardned more about colour theory and using colour pallets this year, which could be useful in making powerpoint presentations for other classes, or making a buissness card. It could also help with my mom's play's at monck, where I could help design a better program.

  19. This Unit can continually be applied throughout our lives at home and at work in many different aspects. From the simplist ability to take quality family photos, upload them to a PC and edit them to your needs. Or more complex situations where you can create, from scrap, a mind blowing peice of work thorugh adobe CS5 that can be used for a company's advertisement and many other things.
    This unit can be applied many ways.

  20. This unit was a very interesting and fun part of the course. The skills that I learned will be very useful in a number of ways. For example I could create a fancy cover page for an english essay that would show the teacher my dedication to the class. I could also use the skills from the photoshop projects to create a fantastic family scrapbook from a vacation. Luke Knowles.

  21. This unit was alot of fun and i learned a lot of interesting new photoshop techniques that i can hopefully use towards some school powerpoints. Also, the skill set helped me in photoshop to make some really cool digital collages. I'm also capable of doing tutorials at home now which i plan on accomplishing in the near future.
