Picture Time


Today Anna and I worked out in the morning; we did a class called Urban Warrior.  It actually wasn’t that bad, it was at least better than the description sounded.  It was basically cardio kickboxing without the big bag.  There was a lot of jumping and running around too.  Then in the afternoon we met with our sponsor, Cathy, to begin working on the image for the cover of our booklet.  We decided we wanted to spell out the title of our booklet using pictures of ourselves as the letters.  So today we took the pictures for that.  Making letters using a body is actually complicated and it took multiple tries for us to get the pictures looking like the letters.  The hardest letter to make was definitely the “O” but eventually we figured it out.   However, we still had more time so we actually were able to begin learning how to make the images into a silhouette so that they would look kind of like the images on the itunes gift card (with the bright background and the persons outline filled in with black) or something similar.  So we learned how to use Photoshop to silhouette the images so that the person was in black and the background was the color of the background for the cover.
