This weekend I went to Altus to work on the RBC (Regional Building Committee). I work on the Cornice crew and helped put cornice on. Hall builds are very refreshing because everyone that comes is so happy to be their, you have young, old, male, and females helping and you are giving up your time without pay or anything, but they feed you some pretty good meals. I posted a picture of when we were putting the truces on. Though I am on the Cornice crew I hope to be switching soon to be on the Electrical Crew. (:
Things that I have accomplished:
-Sent my goal of the week.
-Sent in my Leave Request Form for Monday and Tuesday.
–Tracing an imported image: The Tracing feature allows you to automatically convert pixel-based imagery into vector-based art work. You can’t rely on this feature being that it does not create automatic artwork. Being that I did not download his files, I created my own alphabet in photoshop and then placed it into illustrator. This was a simple lesson in which my file that was placed inside the application, was then live traced by pressing ‘Live Trace” and then bam you are done. Its converted it into a live trace options, and not only that it converts your file also into black-and-white. You may have a file in which you have what ever it is is yellow, and it doesnt trace. That is because yellow is closer to white that any other color. You can adjust that by adjusting the threshold to about 200.
-I watched 1 1/2 of the other videos, but have not wrote a summary over them yet.
-I was looking at other tutorials of illustrator, and that got me looking at a few more, its cool as how much you can do and create in illustrator, and Photoshop.
