This past days, during my internship, I have spend most of my time creating a facebook cover picture. My first step was to select what pictures I will be using on my final design. Mey didn’t limit myself, she gave me a green light to select as many pictures as I desire. Later, looking at my sketches I have determinate that I will be needing at least 30 pictures. 25 of them I will need to resize to a specific dimension for them to fit in 851 px wide by 315 _­ tall. soon after, I will need to place them side by side. These small pictures will serve as the background. Then I will applying a light grey gradient and lower the color saturation. After creating this background, I will then used the remaining pictures to be highlighted with full color and a subtle drop shadow. I have calculated that it will take me approximately 2 weeks to finish this design.

Sometimes Mey asks me to help her in organizing photographers’ portfolios. I am more than glad in helping her. It’s an great opportunity for me to look at their work. I am able to learn and be inspired. I get to use my knowledge learn at my photography class. When looking at their work, I focus on the they display products and the perspective they were taken.
