MCG2-5th Tutorial
This is the original picture where we are suppose to apply what we learnt from the tutorial.
Ok. This is the 1st step of the tutorial. 1st i zoomed to the hand part of the man. And we are suposed to put flames over his hand. So, at 1st, I selected the lasso tool, and I draw a simple fire shape.
After that, I click the D button to select the default color. And I clicked alt+backspace to give white color inside the fire. And I added Gaussian blur effect to make the flame look soft at the edges.
And then, I selected the brush tool and reduced the hardness to zero. And adjusted the diameter to a proper size.
I darken the area around the flame using the brush tool. And then, I turned off the visibility of the background. I selected the flame and clicked define brush preset under the edit bar. And I named it flame. So it is already a new brush pattern now.
I turned on the visibility and i created a new layer. And I selected the new brush from the brush palette. I clicked X to invert the default color. I added the brush effect of the flame with random size.
On this step, I created a box and added 2 colors which is red and yellow. And added the clouds effect.
I brought the colored box to the flame and set to an appropriate shape. And selected the layers outside the flame and delete it. Now, the flame has its color.
I added the liquify effect to the flames to make it look real. And I copied the flames to another hand and flipped it horizontal.
This is the final effect. I added some fire shape above his head and reduced the opacity. I also added some fire shape using the same techniques above his shoulders and knees. And reduced the opacity to give a warming effect. The end of tutorial 5.:)

My Assignment 2
MCG 2 - Assignment 2 work Done.
~1st of all, I would share with you all about where I got the idea or inspiration from. I went through some videos I downloaded where photoshop experts share their experience on working with their projects. So I gain few ideas from there. The background of my wallpaper and the lighting effect that I gave to the words are few ideas that I gain through the video.~
Ok. This is the beginning step of my assignment 2. I used the lens flare effect to create my background. A simple one.I adjusted the lens type to a proper setting and adjusted the brightness to 115. It looked just nice.
Now, we can see the focused lighting effect coming from the bright point. That focused lighting effect I created by using the lasso tool. I created a long cone shape and filled it white color, and reduced the opacity. I added a round shape on top and reduced the opacity but brighter than the cone shape because I want to put wordings there. And I added the Gaussian blur effect to the shapes to make it look real.
Then, I added the text. I created the FOM letter in capital. And I added the gradient color for temporary which is red white and blue. And I added few blending effects which is drop shadow and inner shadow.
I added two round shapes behind both of the wordings and reduced the opacity.
Here I added the MMU logo on top of my wallpaper and distort the image. I duplicated few layers till the end while reducing each of their opacity.
And then, I added three images of FOM building structures. But before that, we can see that my wordings and the shapes now look better. I changed the color and added Gaussian blur effect to the big round shapes and adjusted the text to look better.
Here is our hero of the wallpaper. MMU Mascot!!:) I added his image and used the brush strokes effect to make him look better. Angle strokes is the effect I choose because it suits him well. And I adjusted the direction balance, stroke length and sharpness to a proper level. I even added some blending effects for him. 
Next, I added some effects to our images. Here I uses the brush strokes effect as well. But I added the sumi-e effect. It gives a simple nice look for the image. And I adjusted the contrast to 19. It looked simply simple.. The same effect is used for all the 3 images.
Getting to the final touch. I adjusted the brightness and contrast to a proper level. And here it is. The digital wallpaper for FOM OPEN DAY.:)

MCG2 - 4th Tutorial
First of all, I started with the wordings layer. I went to the gradient editor and set a cool warming colour. The combination of blue and green. I added the drop shadow, inner shadow, outer glow, and satin effects on the wording.
And then I copied the effects i put for the wording and applied to the drops. So that they look balanced and simple.
And then, as guided in the tutorial, I created the green layers copy in the channels pallete. And I added the gaussian blur effect.
After done all that, I added the effect for the background. I used plastic wrap effect under the artistic effect tool and I adjusted Detail, Smoothness, and the highlight strength. It looks just nice for the background. I applied the effect.
Finally, I used my basic skills to touch up the small wordings. I adjusted the paint tool to color mode. I selected blue and green and gave the wordings some effects with round shape.
And this is the final output..:)

MCG 2 - My Assignment 1 -Malaysia Truly Asia
MCG2-Assignment1
This is the 1st step for my assignment. I used the fireworks picture as my background. I adjusted its opacity to 90%.
And then, I selected the image and created a new adjustment layer with hue and saturation. The result from the adjustment can be seen above.
Next, I added the malaysian flag image. I clicked CTRL+with the images edge to adjust the image. I copied another image of that flag, and reduced the opacity. And I drag the copied layer below the real flag.
Here are the texts. Malaysia Truly Asia. I used the text tool. For each text , I created a back layer with 47% opacity for each text and represent them with 3 different colors which are in Malaysia's Flag.
I added the picture of four main ethnics in Malaysia, Kadazan/Iban, Chinese, Indian and Malay. I added the pictures one by one. 1st I added a picture and distort it. I reduced the opacity and used the twirl under Filter-Distort. I arranged the pictures in order at the right side of the postcard.
This is where I added the picture which symbolizes unity. The unity word is written in 3main language used in Malaysia. I right clicked on the image at the layers panel and clicked blending options and I added drop shadow with purple color and inner shadow, so that the text can be seen clearly.
The FINAL result...:)

MCG2-2nd tutorial
This is the original picture which I used for the 2nd tutorial. A girl with a file, and a car. MMU girl?? No one knows..except the photographer.. hahaha..
So, the 1st step... I created a new layer right at the layers panel. (bottom, left, down)
After that, I used the brush tool to colour the car. I set the layers mode to 'color' and picked the colour blue. And i brushed all over the car by adjusting the diameter at every different phase.
The next step, I used the pen tool to mark the file. I clicked the paths panel and added the outcut of the top part of the file and save selection as channel at the channels panel. I did the same thing for the bottom part of the file.
Finally, I press CTRL + the top and bottom part of the file at the layers panel. And I added gradient.
This is the final resultThursday, November 20, 2008
MCG2- 1st tutorial
My 1st Tutorial
As this is my 1st tutorial, I learnt alot of things. Photoshop is realy nice to use. And this is the 1st step I did for the 1st tutorial picture. I set up the ruler as shown in the video.
This is the effect in the middle after I added the Gausian Blur.
And, this the 1st star which I added to the background.
2 more stars added. And I reshaped the size to make them look like they are falling down.
Then, I added some radial blur effects to the stars to make them look real. And after that, I used sketch effect on the tv-screen and adjusted it to a proper shape and add it to the building appropriately. And added drop shadow.
This is the final result after I added few more effects that I learnt from the video lesson.
As a result, this is the final output after I put some colours to all the stars..
The video lesson really makes me easy to understand about this lesson. Hope to learn more and improve myself in Photoshop.
