Photo Illustration - All-star freshman Trey Zeigler

Central Michigan University freshman Trey Zeilger is the highest rated high-school basketball player to ever sign with the CMU basketball program. Ranked in the top 16 'impact freshman' by ESPN, the start of Zeigler's career and his arrival at CMU has been much anticipated. With a brand new arena and a team expected to be one of the best in the Mid-American Conference, Zeigler's freshman season will be followed closely by thousands of fans, hoping to see them grab a title.

Big Long Doughnuts - Class Illustration

Our class illustration is based on the idea "You are what you eat."  In order to create these images we first photographed Jeremy Olson using a soft box to camera right as the main light.  We also used a fill light bouncing off the wall on camera left and a rim light coming from camera left.  We carefully photographed the doughnut next using the exact same lighting setup.  To create our final image we cut the doughnut out using the magnetic lasso and then transposed the image onto the image of Olson.  For the first image, we took our photoshop skills a little further by using the liquefy filter to remove some of Olson's shirt.  We then used a clone stamp tool to make the arm look natural.  Presto.
