Part 1:<br />
Create a tutorial showing how to use free Linux tools to take images from a digital camera and save them on a CD or DVD as a slide show. Include a section (indicated as optional) in your tutorial about image cropping and removing red eyes. Your tutorial must include screen shots, illustrating the process, preferably made by you. If you use screen shots created by others they must be properly referenced in your article.
 
Post your tutorial on your blog and send the URL via email to your teacher for grading.
 
Part 2:<br />
Using Linux tools, create a mosaic portrait of yourself. Use a self-taken photo as a base and a set of tile images of your choice to complete the mosaic. Send the completed portrait for grading purposes to your teacher. The mark will not be based on artistic merit - the mosaic should be detailed enough so you are recognizable. For best results, use a high-resolution photo of your face only and have a tile library of at least 50 pictures, with varying colours and brightness. Do not forget to reference your sources if you use images not taken by yourself for tiles. Post your portrait on your blog if you like.
Students with a single file assigned, must also provide the following:
* H.268 264 in 3G Mobile Quality
Other students may complete this transcode optionally.
<br>(Nes: I recommand to have around or less than 480x320 resolution, lower than video 1.5kbps and Audio 128kps, please see the link below for iPhone detail)

For best result, please use a dual-pass conversion (if available). Also, please note that the disk space on Ireland is limited so using you will need to use another system to complete this assignment will probably your work best. <strong>Please do not make copies of the original footage on the Ireland server</strong> In addition to the conversion you are required to post a blog documenting the entire process including a list of used software and screen shots of your work.
