Project 3



 

Project 2



 

Project 1

 



Intro


Hi everyone! My name is Alexis, but I go by Lexi. This post is a little late because blogger wouldn't let me make an account for a few days, but it worked! I am a sophomore at Albertus and I am taking this class as one of my requirements, but also because I think that photoshop is fun and Mr. Nevins is a great professor!!

Project 1



 

 


My name is Dave, and in my senior year at Albertus Magnus.  I am a criminal justice major and a police officer in Massachusetts.  I served in the Marine Corps from 2008 to 2012 as a machine gunner.  I am also a licensed electrician but decided to switch careers.  I have no experience with Photoshop, but I am excited to learn how to use it. 

Project one


 

Project 1



 I am completely clueless when it comes to art so this course will be difficult for me. Project 2 is proving to be a challenge for me because personally I do better with written instructions versus videos. I will do my best to complete Project 2.

 Hi Everyone,

Class starts on Monday....This class is online and asynchronous... that is, you will work on your own and get your work done independently. We have 8 weeks to complete 24 projects or 3 per week.

I don't use elearning for your portfolios but instead, Google Drive.  Take a look at this video of the projects we did in the Fall semester.  This first video covers 1/2 of the class, part 2 on your Syllabus covers the second half.
