Let Us Study
What we see in the Internet is the web page. Why we are hooked on
looking at them is because we see our eyes to work of art. As an
empowerment technology student, you are task in the future to convey
message and you need to consider principles in delivering the message
across.
1. Balance
Every element of a design—typography, colors, images, shapes,
patterns, etc.—carries a visual weight. Some elements are heavy and draw
the eye, while other elements are lighter. The way these elements are laid
out on a page should create a feeling of balance.

2. Color
Color is used for emphasis or may elicit emotions from viewers.
Determined by its hue (name of color), intensity (purity of the hue), and
value (lightness or darkness of hue).
3. Proximity
It is simply the process of ensuring related design elements are placed
together. Any unrelated items should be spaced apart. Close proximity
indicates that items are connected or have a relationship to each other

and become one visual unit which helps to organize or give structure to a
layout (Smith, 2017).
White Space is the art of nothing. It is also known as the negative space. It
is the portion of a page left unmarked: margins, gutters, and space between
columns, lines of type, graphics, figures, or objects drawn or depicted.
White space gives the simple text and illustrated content a room to
―breathe‖ while contributing to a minimalist aesthetic. In some
cases, negative space is used to create secondary images that may
not be immediately apparent to the viewer.
4. Alignment
It is simply the way visual elements are arranged so that they line up in
some way.
5
Center alignment aligns all the
elements so that an invisible, central
line on the page will always be in the
center of the elements.
5. Repetition
The process of repeating elements throughout a design to give a
unified look. Repetition goes with consistency of your design on font, font
size, patterns, and colors.
The images on the left-hand side of Type and Pixel’s website are a
great example of repetition in design.

1. Crop and clean up your images
Straighten images:
It’s always better to pay attention to be sure your
horizon whenishorizontal
you shoot, but
straightening is also an easy first editing step.

Most editing programs let you pick from preset modes like ―flash,‖
―daylight‖ or ―cloudy‖ to better calibrate the image for the lighting
conditions when it was shot. In addition, many have both a ―temperature‖
and a ―tint‖ slider that you can fiddle with to fine-tune the overall lighting
cast on an image.

image where no elements in the frame stand out. Typically, you want a
middle contrast that avoids either of those extremes. But if you prefer either
of those effects, you can adjust the contrast to achieve that.

Once white balance is adjusted, you can further refine colors in your
photos with the saturation and vibrancy controls. The distinction between
the two is subtle: Increasing vibrancy increases color intensity in neutral
color tones and maintains color intensity in the brighter colors. Increasing
saturation makes all colors throughout the frame more intense. When
bright colors pop, it can give the photo a more dramatic look.
5. Adjust sharpness
Experiment with your editing
program's additional sharpening
features to see the effect each produces.
One you might try is a ―clarity‖ or
―structure‖ tool. It makes the edges of
objects in the photo stand out more,
giving the overall image a punchier look.

There are many ways on how to edit images for online viewing as well as
there are software that you can use.

Let Us Practice
Directions: Upload 4 pictures of your choice. Use the manual or
video tutorial of Snapseed application (any mobile editing of your
choice. Just name what editing app or software did you use). Follow the
rubric below as this is the basis of grading your work.
Let Us Remember
While there is a growing popularity of editing and posting images
online, let us remember the following:
Respect each individual and use the netiquette ―Remember the
Human‖.
Editing images is a powerful tool but it needs responsibility and
it should not be abused.
11
Do not use editing tools to malign others. If the posting is for
fun, the meaning of posting images should be universally
understood and treated with respect.
Do not overdo in editing too as if the editing output is far from
reality of that image. Let us enhance but not to create a fantasy.
Let Us Assess
Now that you have learned the basics of editing image for online
environment, assess yourself how far have you remembered. Write the
letter of the correct answer.
