Photoshop Project
In this project, I had to take my face and put it onto someone elses face. In this case I used Bon Jovi's face. I started by placing my face onto bonjovi's then through many hours of strenuous editing, I fixated my face onto the image to blend them together.

Face Swap
In this project we had to take one person and switch his face with another person's face. I took Justin Bieber and switched his face with Mr. Beans (Rowan Atkinson). It was a long and complicated process to switch faces, but I believe it turned out well.
Facebook Follies
Question 1:
What are some of the problems with posting/tagging photos of yourself or others doing embarrassing or stupid things? Explain.
One of the biggest problems about posting embarrassing photos of yourself is the fact that everyone can see it. Many bosses and employers will check up on your Facebook to see what kind of person you are. If they see you doing something stupid like drinking, smoking weed, or grabbing people inappropriately, they will assume that is who you are; a trouble maker. No one in a work environment likes a trouble maker. They will fire you.
Question 2:
What consequences might follow for “incriminating photos” posted on Facebook? Explain.
"Incriminating photos" are criminal. The consequences of posting these photos on Facebook are sever. Usually when in possession or holding the title of poster of these pictures you can go to jail for it.
Question 3:
Do you use censorship when you post photos or messages on Facebook?
Yes. I am the type of person who avoids comflict and wants to be everyone's friend. If anyone has a problem with anyone else, they should take it up with that person in private. There is no need for public displays of hate or loathing.
Question 4:
How is social media changing the way people interact? Explain.
Social Media has completely changed the way we interact and think. Instead of writing letters, we write text messages. Instead of using the telegram, we send emails. Social media is a brilliant invention. Families can connect even though they are across countries.
Question 5:
Do you think it is fair that you are judged based on who you are “online”? Explain your answer.
No. I believe that that is a stupid way to judge a person. People are not who the are in real life when they are sitting behind a key board. It as if they is a saftey zone that you don't find in real life. It sometimes cases people to do stupid things online.
Question 6:
What does it mean to be a “digital citizen”? Give one example of “bad digital citizenship” from the documentary.
A digital citizen is a person who uses the internet many things including social interaction. One girl in the video posted on her Facebook that she was having a party. Thinking that she had only invited her friends, she posted this on her wall. What she didn't know was that everyone was invited to her party. Every single one of her Facebook friends showed up for this party. The end result was the party finally ending after the police forced everyone off the property.
Question 7:
Facebook has created a positive change in our society regarding how we communicate in business.
Many people today use Facebook as a way to connect with colleagues. Also some bosses and employers use Facebook as a way to send messages and work times to there employees.
Question 8:
Facebook has created a positive change in our society regarding how we communicate in our personal lives.
Facebook has alowed everyone who has an internet connection to connect with there friends and family for free. People who live in British Columbia can connect with someone in Ontario with a couple of clicks. We no longer have to travel far and wide to meet people.
Question 9:
List some examples of how Facebook has (or might) negatively affected the personal lives of individuals.
Facebook has now become an easy way to target people. One of the biggest things in social media these days is cyber bullying and Facebook has become a gateway to that. It creates a way for people to attack others without having to take responsibility.
Question 10:
Are you a Facebook user? If so, approximately how many times a day do you check it?
I am a Facebook user. I usually go onto Facebook at least once a day.
Question 11:
If you are not a Facebook user, why have you made the decision not to use it?
N/A
Question 12
What affects does Facebook have on the role of management in today’s business environment?
Employers today use Facebook as a way to keep tabs on their workers. For example, when people apply for jobs, employers will check people's Facebook to find out what kind of people they are
