HR mgmt

**All of these photos were created using Adobe Photoshop for a class project. The class is CAPP 30523: Applied Multimedia Technologies, at the University of Notre Dame.**

 

The concept of my project revolves around an overall focus on Human Resources Management as a workforce and as a service. I wanted it to incorporate both images of a business, whether they are buildings or office supplies or items around the office, but also people doing business with each other. The image portfolio should demonstrate the business of people and how people skills are involved in human resources. Each image represents a branch of Human Resources Management.

 

Acknowledgments:

This image was created using two photos from Flickr, and a screenshot of the color palette from one of the images.

Description of techniques used:

•I started off with a base image of the globe in water, selected only the globe, and duplicated another layer of just the globe.

•I then converted the background layer of water to black and white, keeping the globe layer in color.

•I took the puzzle layer, applied the Artistic Filter “Cutout”, adjusted the levels, and applied a blending option of opacity to make it barely visible, but arranged it to be on top of the water layer (and also black and white filter).

•I selected and cut the puzzle layer to only cover the water area, and afterward I used the Blur/Smudge Tool to blend the horizon of the water with the puzzle edge.

•I then ran the original globe image through Kuler to determine the color palette. This was print-screened, cut, and pasted into my final image as a bottom border.

•I used the green color that I found from the palette to use in my typeface, which then had an outer glow applied to it to really pop.

 

Notes for this particular image:

This image was supposed to be an overall general image for Human Resources Management, illustrating that it is a global concept and the puzzle pieces represent how HR is truly a puzzle piece connecting all different parts of a business organization.
