FInal Fireworks Creation

I added a background and altered the tween instances paths on my butterfly project a little bit, but otherwise that is all I did.

FInal Fireworks Creation, continued.

I changed my Final Project quite a bit. I think it looks really cool. I might put a background in yet, too. As of right now everything is really easy to do on my project, it just takes time.

FInal Fireworks Creation

I decided to actually work on a final project using the things I learned throughout this unit.
As of now I have a butterfly made, but I don't know what else I am going to add to it, because it is kind of boring at the moment.

Translucent Orb, and Changing Colors

I decided to keep working on fireworks projects for possibly extra credit, and to see if I can possibly learn anything more.

I am almost done with the Translucent Orb. Not quite finished.

I completely finished the Changing color of an image.
It was easy to do everything, basically. That's why it was worth 1 point.

Select Behind Tool, Rubber Stamp, and Glossy Text.

Today I completely finished 3 projects.

The select behind tool was worth 1 point.
There were no difficulties. It was worth one point for a reason.
It was easy to do pretty much everything.

The rubber stamp was worth 2 points.
It was hard to figure out how to make it so you could add texture to the text.
It was easy to rotate the stamp, and do just about everything else.

The glossy text was worth 2 points.
It was hard to decide just the right transparency of the text, so it would look glossy.
It was easy to add filters and such.


I am completely DONE with the whole 25 point project. I still have not decided what I am going to do now, whether it be working with other Applications, or keep doing projects. I will probably end up deciding tomorrow.

I think it was a really fun project overall. I learned a lot from working so much with Fireworks.

Tween Instances

Today, I added a little more to the Tween project to make it worth 2 points. I completely finished it

It was easy to create the sphere the way I wanted it.
It was hard to make the ball go the opposite way, to get into the catcher's glove though. Once I figured it out, it was easy.

Tween Instances and Text Masking

I completed 2 projects today. Text Masking was worth 2 points, and Tween Instances was worth 1 point. I still need to get them checked off, but otherwise I completed them both.

It was really easy to create the sphere for the Tween Instances one, and copy it, and such. Nothing was really hard about it.

It was pretty easy to mask the text for Text Masking. I didn't have any trouble doing that project.

3D Box, Interlocking Letters, Arrow with Gradient, Shadow, and Reflection.

I completely finished three projects today. They were all 2 pointers. I finished the 3D Box, Interlocking Letters, and an Arrow with Gradient, Shadow, and Reflection.

What was hard with the 3D Box was when I put the clip art in the middle, I had to arrange it a certain way.
It was easy to distort the edges of my logo to fit into the box.

Nothing was hard with the interlocking letters. It took me less than 5 minutes to complete.
It was really easy all around.

Nothing was hard with the arrow either. It took me 5 minutes tops to make.
It was really easy.

3D Box

I created a 3D Box today. It was a 2 pointer.
I did not completely finish, I still need to add some clip art or something inside the box.
I found it easy to make the cube the way I wanted it, angles and the like.
I thought it was difficult to distort the sides to the exact point to cover up the sides.

3D Text

The Project I created today was 3D Text for 3 points.
I completely finished it.
It was easy to choose the gradient paintbucket, and what colors I wanted to use.
It was difficult to get the text to the size I wanted it, but I finally got it to work.

I used the polygon lasso tool on a washing machine and put it in a farmyard. Brilliant, right?
