Postcard

please explain which file format you chose for your postcard and why?

I chose jpeg.  It was the easiest to remember.  I also used the chiller font because it was a big font and could be seen in light blue color. http://www.practicalecommerce.com/articles/1821-Image-Formats-What-s-the-Difference-Between-JPG-GIF-PNG-

 

My procedure starts with a picture of the Parisian Disneyland haunted mansion. The first image I picked was the loading area where you get in the  vehicles.  I like the manor back story , and plus I liked the fact that one of the characters in the back story was named henry.  I copied this picture off Google images.   I also found a picture of a baby penguin looking ominous and immediately thought this little guy would be good in the post card since I have a liking for baby penguins.  The  photo after the penguin  was a pair of red eyes ,  thanks to the mask effect  the red eyes were merged into the background  to become more ghostly.  The last photo was me thinking a rather stupid thought  at the time  because I may have added a photo of Selena Gomez and now that I look at It  that was a bad idea. 

 

I selected those pictures because at that time I was fascinated by the Parisian Disney haunted mansion and my thoughts were revolving around that idea like a globe.  The chiller font was the only font large enough  to see  and was supposed to be modeled in a  tough kind of ghost like image of Mr. T.  I was trying to tell an imaginative story and a spoof on the Disney mansion back story. 

Step by Step

Took all my images and merged them on the screen. I Created a mask on adobe photoshop. I used it on several images and then the piece was done and it was time to add the text.  I experimented with different fonts.  I noticed all of the fonts looked too small.  I picked a big font that would look good in caps lock.  I picked a colour --blue and then typed in the message.  I saved it after that.
