Supporting Evidence - How I edited my magazine website images.

 

    First I started to crop around my picture deleting the parts that I didn't want to be shown, to have the      main focus be on the face, I did this by using the crop tool. 

    Next, I changed the light levels using `ctrl l`, I did this to try and brighten up the face and eyes as            much as possible as that is the main focus on the picture.

 

    I then adjusted my sharpness levels I did this to make details in the eyes stand out and make the              photo all together look sharper.

This is the Final edited picture, I feel as though I achieved what I wanted the picture to look like by making it look more enhanced and brighter. I wanted the main focus to be on the eyes as that is what one of my stories on my website is going to be on, with `the way we look at the world.`

Supporting Evidence - How I edited my magazine issue 2 picture.

 

                                                          

           First I opened up the picture that I wanted to use for my Issue 2 from cover, then I started to                   crop any of the picture that I didn't want to include using the cropping tool.

                                                   

          Then I changed the light levels of the picture using `ctrl l`, this which enabled me to enhance and            change the amount of light reflected on my picture to make it as bright or shadowed as I'd like.

I then adjusted the sharpness of my picture by clicking on the top left hand corner on 'enhance then adjust sharpness.` This enabled me to make my picture look sharper and make more of the features stand out and look more defined.

   This is my final finished picture after editing, my main focus was just to brighten the picture up and 

   make it look sharper without taking the realism out of the photograph by over editing it and making it 

   look fake. I feel that I have achieved this by using the tools and skills I have learnt on the platform to 

   create what I wanted my  picture to look like. 

Supporting Evidence - Using layer mask.

           Firstly, I opened up an image that I wanted to use as a background.

Then I got up the picture that I wanted to change the background for, I used the quick                    selection tool to select the background of the image that I wanted to change. Using the add button on the select tool to select the background, and the subtract button to delete and perfect any of the image that I didn’t want the background on that overlapped.

Then I pressed the layer mask icon.

I then clicked on “layer 1” and dragged it down to the “sky.jpg” to swap them around. 

    I then pressed “control I” to get the background around my photograph.

 Finally, I pressed the background layer on the right-hand side column. and then the move tool to stretch the background where I wanted it around my photograph.

 

Supporting Evidence - How I edited my magazine issue 1 picture.

                                           

                                                                    

                First, I cropped the picture that I chose to edit for my Issue 1 magazine front cover, to                      reduce any of the surroundings around the picture to focus on the main image.

                                        

              Then I Adjusted the light levels to perfect my picture and to make it look less washed out.

                                                          

                         Then I Adjusted the sharpness levels for my image to make it more defined and                               less pixelated, but made sure not to overdue it and make my picture look                                           unrealistic.

                                      

                                              

                         My Final edited picture, my main focus was to make my image stand out more                                 and to add more sharpness and to enhance the colours and light already there,                                   which I think I have achieved.
