Alright. Now it's time for the assignment.
So, the first assignment
actually follows on the first set of
lectures and uses Pill and the Pillow library.
So I've done a bunch of
digital photography just as a hobby myself.
Something I'm very interested in is
creating variations on images.
So, I'll take a nice photo and I
did some black and white photography,
and I wanted to see that photo in sepia tones,
so little browns or warm colors,
where I wanted to see it in cool gray tones,
gives it a more architectural feel,
a more distant and it changes the emotion.
Even though it's a black and white image,
usually there's not just black and white.
This is interesting both in
the images that we can create digitally.
But actually, this whole world of
pigmentation and color science as well,
when it comes to actually printing these kinds of images.
So, in this assignment,
I want you to improve upon
the variations that we did in the main lecture.
So, we looked at variations of brightness.
But, I'm going to let you dig a little bit further
into this RGB setup of images.
So in an image, a given pixel,
one by one pixel can be represented as red,
green, and blue color channels.
Those three things are mixed
together to provide an overall color.
So, purple might have a lot of red and a lot of
blue in it and a little bit of green for instance.
So in this assignment,
you're actually going to manipulate those color channels
directly and create a contact sheet that
shows us what some of those manipulations look like.
So, have some fun with this assignment.
I think you can explore quite a bit about
image and images in this assignment.
If you do any digital photography,
if you do stuff with photoshop or the like,
you'll probably enjoy this assignment,
and I'll see you next week when we talk about
Tesseract and optical character recognition.
