For this assignment I had to complete four mini tasks and a final fantasy landscape image and annotate all the work that I did and search 2 artist Seung Woo Back and John Goto.
For the first mini task I had to create a image with in a image using Photoshop.
Paulina took two photo's of me one me on a cannon 400D sitting next to a bill board and the other standing next to a wall. I uploaded the two images on to the mac and dragged them into Photoshop and then dragged them on top of each other and changed the opacity so I could see the billboard behind the other image so it would be easier to Photoshop I zoomed in and erased the unwanted pace around the bill board. I then changed the opacity back to normal and flattened the final image.
I am quite pleased with my task one final image as it was the first time I properly used Photoshop I think it turned out okay but if I did it again I would be more careful when I was erasing the unwanted space as I think it is quite messy and it makes it look unrealistic.
For my second mini task I had to add colour to a black and white image using Photoshop.
I took a photo of some cut out cake stars in and window because I thought they were really colourful and that they would work well doing this. I then uploaded the image to the mac and opened it up in Photoshop. First I made two layers and changed one of the layers to black and white using desaturate.
I then zoomed in and erased the area's I wanted the colour from the other layer to come through.
then I softened around the edges of the stars to it would blend it better.
I really like how this image turned out I think the colours are really bright and bold. I don't think I would do anything differently because I think the image I used was perfect for doing what I did.
For my third mini task I had to duplicate an image using Photoshop I took two pictures of Paulina standing with one of her arms out. First I dragged the two imaged into Photoshop and then used the magnetic lasso tool to go round one of the images of Paulina I then used the erase tool to get rid of the rest of the image around Paulina as I didn't want it in my image. I dragged the image I just cut from one image into the other image I took and lined it up so it looked like she was reaching out for the other image of her.I used the blur tool to go round the edges of the image so it looked more realistic.
I don really like how this image turned out because I think it looks really fake the the line up of the arms don't look right if I did it again I would use a different location and me more careful when erasing round the image.
For my forth task we had to make a colour painting using a photo that we took and paint.
I took a picture of Paulina and uploaded it to the macs. I then dragged the image to Photoshop and used the channel mixer to change the image to black and white. I then printed it off on a A4 piece of paper.
I then used paint and painted over the black and white image. I don't like how the image turned out I think it looks messy and like I rushed it. If I did it again I would use a bigger image so it would be easier for paint over and I would be more careful painting it.
For our final image we had to create a fantasy landscape using Photoshop.
I took three pictures using a Canon 400D. I took a photo of the market place, some grave stones and a old door. I then dragged the images into Photoshop and made them black and white using the adjustments icon. I used the magnetic lasso tool to go round the old door and then erased all the unwanted space around it using the erase tool and then dragged it into the image of the market place.
Then I did the same to the grave stones and dragged them into the background of the door. I didn't have enough images of grave stones so I just kept adding layers of the gravestones and then went round all the other images with the blur tool to make it look realistic.
I really like how this final image turned out I think it looks really scary and creative. I don't think I would do anything different.
