Learning Log Apr.26

I decoded to connect all my works in one video. A video like a slide show. It will be a really good memory when look it back many years later.
The problem is I don't have so many photoshop works yet. So I decoded to make several more works and also put some of the pictures taken by my DSLR camera.
I find it's very interesting when you refer to a tutorial, and follow it not exactly the same. It's very interesting to change a little element in it. So that you can add some of your own thinkings into it.

Learning Log May14th

1.I watched several tutorials on the internet. It's a little hard to practice. I need to do more practice at home, and Im going to create some blur pictures by myself.
2. I learned how to create a new brush by youself. You can choose any size and any shape you want, and save it as your own brush.
3.I find it's very interesting that when you draw a picture and then make the side lines  unclear. It makes your drawing more beautiful.
4.I can't find the ellipse tool at the first, and then I found it's because of the version. That's why I can't find that tool on my computer.
5. The most important point of today's class is that I learned how to create your own brush and use it properly.

• What questions do I have about what I learned? I can't really remember every short cut keyboard compound. So I need to practice it more at home.
• What was the point of today's lesson? Today's point is the content about the tutorials for imovie.
