Trimal (A.K.A. the Fourth Project)
Find 10 to 15 images of animals that you would like to potentially use for this assignment. Put them inside your folder. Make sure you find a few different angles of each animal that you choose.
You will need to create, at least, two imaginary animals that are the combination of three animals (not computer generated images).
The goal of the assignment is to have you practice creating realistic looking blends. You may need to use the Clone Stamp tool, or the Liquify Filter (we will discuss those things next week) in order to make things look convincing; but my main goal for this assignment is to have you master Layer Masks. You must use the Layer Mask to create your final Trimal.

Vocabulary
Vector Graphics: The use of geometrical objects such as points, lines, curves, and shapes, rather than a series of dots, to represent images in computer graphics.
Resolution: The measurement used to define the quality of a print, or display image on a monitor. Simply put, a printers resolution is measured in dots per inch (dpi), while the image displayed on a monitor is measured in pixels per inch (or ppi).
Margin (Gutter): Imprinted space around the edge of the printed material. Within the margin is the area where your main elements should be.
Crop (Cut, or Trim) Marks: Small printed crossed lines at the corners of a printed piece indicating where it is to be cut out of the sheet.
Bleed: Any element that extends past the edge of a printed page
