College work.

1. Experiments
Brendan-Storr

2. Process
• Firstly, I basically got a
piece of paper and
began drawing. I used
rubbers to rub away
mistakes, rulers to make
the panels and used a
pencil for the drawing
process. I then used a
black pen for drawing
within the pencil lines to
make them stand out.
Photoshop was used for
colouring, which will be
explored with in a
different drawing in the
next slide.

3. Process
• Continued from slide 2. After using a
scanner to place the drawing on a
computer, I then placed it on a Photoshop
document. I used the ‘quick selection tool’
to select a part of the drawing for
colouring. Instead of using a brush tool like
I did with my other drawings in this course,
I used a paint bucket tool for the colouring
process. I found it less time consuming and
more effective, even for over parts of the
drawing that doesn’t need a quick
selection tool usage. For the speech
bubble seen here, I used the shape tool to
make it. There is a ‘custom shape’ section
that lets you find various shapes to use
and there was a selection of speech
bubbles and thought bubbles to choose
from. After making the speech bubble
white and the lines black, like a traditional
speech bubble, I placed text over it, which
was a tricky thing to do, when you try and
make it fit.

4. Reflection
• What elements of your experiments will you
include in your final product?
– Photoshop colouring.
– Custom shape tool.
– Pencils, rubbers and rulers.
– Paint bucket tool.
– See if I can get a black felt tip pen for much bolder
lines.
