Fantasy Pet Portraits, 6th grade

These fantasy pet portraits were inspired by George Rodrigue's series of Blue Dog paintings. 6th grade students brought in a photo of their pet and edited it in photoshop before we printed it out. Next, we selected a fun background where out pet would like to live. The backgrounds were painted and then the pet portraits were planked onto the backgrounds and sealed with mod podge.  

Rotoscoping on ipads, 7th grade

These awesome rotoscoped animations were made entirely on IPads. 7th graders worked in groups creating a very short action movie. Then, Mrs. Malone-Smith broke down the videos into jpegs on her computer before sending them back to us using the app dropbox. We used the photoshop touch app on the iPads to draw over our jpeg stills using layers in the photoshop touch. The finished layers were put into IMovie where the animations were created. Great job 7th graders!
