Reflection
The physical collage activity was a fun way to spark creativity and
learn composition techniques, though I felt a bit limited with only
fashion magazines to work from. I'm happy with my final result. On the
other hand, the digital collage assignment helped me improve my
Photoshop skills, which I used to find intimidating in my foundation
year. Now, with just a few weeks of practice, I can see how versatile it
is for editing photos and creating collages, with much more to explore.
The recolouring exercise turned out to be much easier than it looked.
While I still see room for improvement, I'm pretty pleased with the
outcome, especially given that it was completed in a short period of
time.
Thank You
