We recently started a new assignment called HULKASH!. Using the tool Pathfinder we were able to make an image of the superhero Hulk. The Pathfinder tool, probably the most useful tool in illustrator, allows you to cut, divide and trim objects on your art board. This tool making unique shapes ultimately creating things never seen before.
To display the Pathfinder you will have to go to Window > Pathfinder to make it visible.The first Shape Mode is Unite, which will combine all the selected objects into a single larger shape. The second Shape Mode is Minus Front, and it allows you to use any top object to create a cutout from the one underneath.The third option is Intersect, which will create a new shape by using the overlapping sections of the selected objects. Last but not least, we have Exclude, which instead of removing any of the non-overlapping sections does the exact opposite and gets rid of the intersecting surfaces of the objects.

Heading into the third quarter of Scientific Visualization, we now start to learn about new programs used to create images. The application we are now working in is Adobe Illustrator, an app used to create professional digital drawings.
Adobe Illustrator a vector graphics editor, is great for making images that have to be resized constantly without losing its quality.A wide range of artist favor this software because of it's all features that make it easy to make special shapes and create a whole picture out of them. My first experience with Illustrator was easy, seeing as I've already had messed around with the mobile version and had a moderate understanding of Photoshop's tools jumping into Illustrator was simple. The way it was set up is almost the same as Photoshop's interface and some of the tools were similar. There was this one tool that was new that we played around with which allowed you to change the shape completely and another where you could type words around the shape you make. The next day there was an assignment to make a pizza using shapes to get a feel for the software. Though there were few days that we worked on illustrator, I can tell that this editor has a lot more in store for us.
Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege is a strategist game where you take part as teams on missions to complete the objective of that match. Unlike Call of Duty, this game requires thought and strategy to every step you take forward in the game. That means listening to in game music closely, working together and communicating through the game about the situation, sometimes taking chances and most importantly having a good aim to eliminate the other team. In this game there are three game ways to play, Situations, which is like the game’s tutorial and/or practice to make you better at the game. Multiplayer, which has two modes being casual and and ranked mode. Ranked puts you in a Match between others your rank and by winning matches, you rank up and climb the ladder to be in the best league. Casual is just a regular match without ranks involved. The last way to play is custom games whether it be local or online. This is where you can challenge your friends and compete against them. In game play there are two phases of the match, attack and defense. This determines whether you are going to capture the objective or defend it with your life.

Another use is to fill it in with color to make simple shapes and lines. There are four types of options that create different areas: rectangular, elliptical, single row or single column.
This tool is located at the top of the Photoshop toolbar underneath the move tool, to make the options available click the tool and hold until a sub menu appears. To select a portion of the image, left click and drag the mouse until you have the size you want, the options single column and single row selects one pixel line of choice. When using the rectangular or elliptical option holding down the shift key will give you a perfect square or circle,making all the sides the same while changing size. A way to edit you selection is to either adding or subtracting from the shape. As long as you hold down the shift key and make a new selection you will add, to subtract, hold down the alt key and repeat the same process. Using these you can make different figures. Once you've made your selection you can now use different features in it, going to the edit menu you can apply fill, transform or stroke to that area. Using the marquee allows you to edit parts of an image.
