Compare and contrast the materials used today.

What are the pros and cons of each material?

What other surfaces do you think you could apply this solution to?

Discuss

Your comfort level with PS before we began and your comfort level with PS now

Discuss how you chose your negatives and why you felt that these were appropriate.

Is there any meaning to your selection of subjects or was this a formalist exercise?

If this was formalist what principles of design did you focus on?

Overall, do you have a better understanding of this process? why or why not and what other applications could you potentially use this for?

I honestly didn't have a better understanding of the process because I mostly knew about it already, although the practice was fun since I got to try how opposite negatives make inverted versions. Perhaps I could learn how to make more collages with this since I like designing them.

Discuss:

Why you chose this/these set up(s)?

What do you need in terms of prep to make it happen?

What mood are you trying to create?

Explain what qualities you like about you're photo and how do they align with what we know of 3 point lighting.

Also, discuss the technical set up of your lights. Key light (position/temperature)...Fill light (position/temperature).....Back light (position/temperature)

Post an example of your image. Dicuss the differences between the warm lighting (last class) and the cool lighting (this class.

What were the different modds created?

Which do you prefer?

Do you have a better understanding of how light affects the subject? Explain.

1 masking result (out of 3) and answer these questions:

Masking

Key Takeaway
What is the most powerful technique or insight about masking (especially AI masking in Camera Raw) that you discovered in the video? How might this change the way you approach photo editing?

Critical Reflection
Were there any limitations or challenges mentioned (or that you can foresee) in using masking in Photoshop Camera Raw—such as with complex subjects, edges, lighting, or workflow time? How might you overcome them or adapt?

1 Pattern Overlay

Evaluation
Was the technique, argument, or artistic approach effective? Why or why not? Support your response with evidence from the video.

Next Steps
After watching, what’s something you feel motivated to try or learn more about? Is there a follow-up video, tool, or exercise you want to explore?

For this, I had a few problems, such as the AI being unable to select what I wanted initially. I might have to overcome them by doing exactly what I did, which was tinkering around with the options so I can find how the AI detects things, or use the select objects tool, although it doesn't work 100% of the time.

Perhaps I could try capturing a blank object to familiarize myself with Photoshop even more before I experiment with things such as how much shadows affect the final result.

What are you trying to communicate (realism/fantasy)?

Where is the location?

Are there costumes?

Will you use make up?

What intentional props will you use to provide hints to your audience?

How do the proposed minimal rules and definitions shape the evolving practice of street photography?

Spend some time with each photoform the lighting lab and consider how this experience and this set up will help you with your outing to capture street photography.

What other materials could we use this process on?

How could you expand on this tool that went beyond pressing a button? (hint, think of value).

Provide a brief description

Give a hint as to where the photo was taken

How is this an example of street?

Was there any post editing done to the photo

(ie. Masking in RAW, adding extra light features, luminostiy mask, other...?)

Post: Provide an example your print and plate side by side. Reflect on the process of engraving, inking, wiping and printing. 

Engraving: What techniques did you use to create different types of lines or textures with your engraving tool, and how did these affect your final image?
Inking: How did you control the amount of ink applied to your plate, and what challenges did you face in achieving an even coating?
Wiping: What did you notice about how wiping changes the tones and details of your print? How did you decide when the plate was wiped “just right”?
Printing: How did your print compare to your engraved plate, and what did you learn from seeing the reversed image on paper?

How did your understanding of image texture and value evolve as you moved from digital photo editing to physical plate-making (laser etching, dry point, and PCB etching)?
Consider how each material and process changed the visual outcome and what that revealed about your control over texture, tone, and depth.

2. Critical Judgment

Which of the three printing methods (laser-etched, dry point, or PCB etch) most successfully conveyed your artistic intention?
Explain your reasoning by comparing the strengths and limitations of each medium in translating your chosen photograph’s mood, contrast, and surface quality.

3. Future Application

How might you apply or combine these hybrid digital-to-analog processes in future creative work or design contexts?
Think about how this workflow could extend into areas like experimental printmaking, mixed-media installation, or product design.
