Draw Vs Paint!!

paint!
Advantages:

• can use either only outline or fill
• makes a perfectly shaped circle

Disadvantages:

• Once copied and pasted you can't change the colour.
• When placed on top of something and placed can't move to a different place without wrecking the background
• Can't have same shape unless you want the same colour

Problems i encountered

some of the problems i had for paint was that when i made 1 circle and copied and pasted it, i couldnt change the colour. i encountered this pronlem by drawing 5 seperate circles. another problem i had was that when i kept leaving one of the circles on top of another and click on a different one it would stay and i couldn't move it without wrecking the picture behind it. I encountered this problem by not putting it on top unless im sure and everytime i did put it on top i just used the undo and fixed it.

Word!

Advantages

• You can move the picture on top of another picture and leave it and if you Don't want it there you can move it quickly just by clicking on it
• It's easy to change the colour

Disadvantages

• It doesn't go see through
• It doesn't move the picture right were you want it

Problems i encountered

some problems i had for word was that i tried to make it see through and it wouldn't work because it would only go infront or behind the picture but not through it. so i tried to draw on top of the other to make it look like a circle but it wouldn't work. i encountered this problem by putting the 2 bottom circle on top of the other 3 and just made it not see through. the next day to school i asked my teacher how to make it see through and he showed me how to and now it looks exactly like how i want it.

Drawing Tools In Word 97

Drawing activity 8 of clubs

Monochrome bitmap: 7.56 KB

24-bit bitmap: 180 KB

Why do you think there is a difference in the file size?

because the monochrome only had 2 colours, clack and white while the 24-bit bitmap has more. So the 24-bit bitmap has a bigger size than the monochrome one.

Paint tools

rectangular regions:

selects a rectangular area and when move makes a blanc spot the shape of a rectangle.

elliptical regions:

selects a cirular and when moved makes a blanc shape of a cirle.

hand drawn regions:

draws whenever the mouse is clicked and move. when releases the end of the line goes back to where it started from.

contiguous regions:

selects only the ssame shape and colour and nothing else and moves wherever put.

Move selection

click and select an area and move to wherever you want.

Zoom

Zoom does not change the picture it just makes it look further or closer on the screen. They are called zoom in and zoom out.

crop image

Crops the outside of a picture and anything outside the croped line will be deleted

Rotate, Scale, Shear

Rotate: click once and a rotation handles will come up and you can twist the image to where ever you want

scale: Click on the picture and a scaling grid will come up and you can change the picture into any size you want.

shear: click on the picture once and a shear grid will come up and you can change the angle to whatever you want.

Flip:

When clicked on the picture using flip the picture will be fliped horizontally

Fill with a Gradient

Digital Art!!

1. Is digital art a valid form of art?

Yes, digital art is a form of art because it doesnt matter what tools you use to create a piece of artwork. It is about the vision, message and emotion the artist is trying to show. Any piece of work that is made from the heart is considered as an artwork.

2. What are some of the advantages that digital paint and draw programs offer over the traditional methods?

The advantages of digital art would be that when you draw you:

• dont need to sharpen the pencil/s
• just cklick ones or twice and the colour you want just appears
• wont have any unwanted line marks
• get a nice well coloured picture with no unwanted white spots
• can draw pictures that you cannot draw
• easy to edit
• can duplicate pictures easily
• can copy and paste

3. What skills must a digital artist possess to create great digital art?

• Need to know how to use a digital art/ draw program (eg. painting and canvas)
• Needs to have a stady hand
• need to know how to use different variety of tools

Some examples of digital art

Digital Media!!

Questions!!

1. List how many forms of digital media surround us (you should be able to come up with at least 5

• Cell phones
• digital video
• digital television
• internet
• video game

2. What number system is digital data based on? What two digits are used to code all digital data?

Binary describes a numbering scheme in which there are only two possible values for each digit: 0 and 1. In digital data memory, storage, processing, and communications, the 0 and 1 values are sometimes called "low" and "high," respectively.

3. What is a bit? What is a byte?

A bit is a binary digit, taking a value of either 0 or 1. Binary digits are a basic unit of information storage and communication in digital.

A byte is a unit of storage capable of holding characters. in most computers a byte is equal to 8 bits. large amount of memory are known in terms of kilobytes, megabytes and gigabytes.

4. What is “sampling rate”? Find an image that explains how sampling works

Digital audio signal is its sampling rate, usually just called the sample rate. The reason why this is important is because the imagine that you had for example a recording of someone speaking, and you sampled the recording once per second. You'd end up with a lot of uneven noise. The more frequently the signal is sampled, the better the approximation to the original sound. However, the higher the sample rate the more memory is required to store the samples

5. How does Colour Depth (Color Depth) or bit depth effect the appearance of an image? Find some images to illustrate the effect.

Colour depth or Bit depth is a computer graphics term describing the number of bits used in a picture/ video. The higher the the colour depth is the clearer of the clours of the picture will be.

Low colour depth
















high colour depth


6. Colour depth effects both still and video digital media. Sampling rate only effects video but not still media. Can you explain.

For the image/ video, colour depth has the same effect to it. It doesn't matter wether or not the image is moving because they are both the same.However, Sampling rate only effects video because for the videos there are sounds and movements but the still frames doesn't.
