Camera Raw conversation practice – community photo – I’ll give you instructions
9:50 Personalized Logo Showcase
This morning we are going to take a look at each of your logos. When presenting (it’s casual – don’t get worked up) Share with us:
What was your inspiration or idea?
What was your process?
What challenges did you face?
Feedback. As a class we are going to provide constructive feedback. Think of feedback as a sandwich – a feedback sandwich. I call this Two Stars and a Wish. What are two things you like and what is one area you like to see changed, modified improved. Constructive and supportive feedback only.
10:35 Mask Break
10:45 Adobe After Effects
We are going to continue on our exploration of Adobe After Effects. We’ll make a nice flower using the repeater and trim paths effect.

12:45 Special Effects and After Effects
There are a lot of effects in After Effects. For some guided practice, let’s take a look at some of the different effects including mattes, generative and distortion effects.
For starters – we are going to make a descriptive effect together.
You cannot go wrong – effects can be layers and the combinations are endless!
Link to Google Doc with Steps if you get lost….
