Resentment Through the Unknown: A Junior Design Student Conceptual Project by Colin Dickerson (2015)

I took a picture of an opaque window in the dark with a light on the inside. I chose these items because the resentment represents the darkness of the outside and the unknown is represented by the opaque window since it is hard to see what is inside. I choose to have the light on the inside to show that the unknown could possibly be brighter then the darkness of the resentment around me. The light also represents the unknown because all around me was darkness and resentment and I didn't know how to feel happy. I chose to have it a little bit crooked because the unknown and resentment aren't great things and they both make you feel uncomfortable and unstable. My picture shows the feeling of resentment with the darkness around me and the unknown is represented through the opaque window and the light inside. The darkness represents how one may feel when they resent someone or something. And the opaqueness represents the unknown.

In Photoshop I learned how to use the pen tool and also how to apply a filter onto a certain region. In my project I used the pen tool to select the middle window. After that I selected that object getting ''marching ants'' and then applied a filter on everything but that window using the inverse selection. I also turned down the brightness of the light bulb inside by making another selection with the pen tool.
