This work was done by Steve McCarthy. Steve put a watch and a pen on the scanner, and used the resultant scan as a starting point. He then created a background by using a wave filter on a painted background. The pen was twisted vertically, and the watch center was de-spherized using Photoshop software.
Jaime Dawkins first photocopied his hands on a photocopy machine, and used the copy as a starting point for a painting on the computer. After drawing his hands, he manipulated the image using various filters (lighting effects, glowing edges, and plastic wrap). This piece was selected for the SIGGRAPH Student Poster and Animation Contest and Exhibition for 1998.
This electronic painting, done by Mike Vanderhoek, was part of an assignment that required students to break the picture frame with a foreground object. Mike used Painter software to create the background. The fish was drawn and combined with the background using Adobe Photoshop.
In this piece, Brandon Dawkins scanned his watch on a single-pass scanner. He spun and zig-zagged the watch as the scanner light passed over it. Then he manipulated the scanned image. He added a blue lighting effect and then a polar coordinates filter to make it roll upward. He added a ripple effect and glowing edges filter. The sphere in the middle of the image is the same scan, with the same polar coordinate filter, but smaller and without a blue lighting effect and ripple filter.
This piece was created by Jaime Dawkins. Jaime took a pack of Doublemint Gum and moved it around on the scanner as the scanner light was moving in order to create a zig-zagged image. Filters were applied in Photoshop (plastic wrap, lens flare, and lighting effects).
Matt Wright created this image by using a photocopy of his hand as a starting point for a painting on the computer. After painting the hand in Photoshop, Matt used various filters to achieve the final outcome. Some of the filters used were motion blur, neon glow, half-tone, lens flare, lighting effects and polar coordinates. A sphere was then added to the center.
This work was done by Chris Smith. Chris scanned a drawing from his sketchbook. He then colorized it and used several filters and lighting effects.
This work was done by Linda Talaga using Adobe Photoshop. Linda scanned pictures of friends and family, and also put various objects on the scanner. She combined and manipulated these images to make a commentary on how the use of drugs hurt the people around you.
This piece was one of the selected entries for the SIGGRAPH Student Poster and Animation Contest and Exhibition 1998. Jackie Sage hand-painted faries hovering over the earth. The sky was created from the same image as the earth, but instead it was color adjusted and transparently pasted up-side down.
Jeff Tennyson created this piece by scanning his Walkman and then distoring the image. He painted the background and used several lens flare filters in Photoshop.
