Manipulated images for school magazine with screenshots of process

Katie Lewis

Here I am cropping my picture so it’s just a picture of the school pitch without the motorway and shed in the background and then I moved it onto the background layer and changed the background colour to a dark green.

Here, I am going to use the polygonal lasso tool to take away the bottom and top of the image so its just the art.

Here I have changed the background colour from white to pink and I have used the polygonal lasso

tool to crop around my model so the picture background from the original photo isn’t in it. Then I added text to my image and changed the font and I

made the text size to 90pt.

Here I just used the crop tool to crop of excess things like the floor and also so there isn’t other things in the background that will take focus from the actual image.

Here, I used the polygonal lasso tool to crop the model and piano so the things in the background weren't shown like the fire extinguisher as I think the image

looks much better without it.

Here I used polygonal lasso tool to crop the two blurry girls out as I don’t want my image blurry and other due to the mirror you can see other people standing there

which wrecks the photograph and doesn’t look professional.

Here I used polygonal lasso tool to crop two dancers as the others where blurred due to them moving and plus it’s easier to fit two pictures in than four and makes it a

bit easier to work with.

Here I only cropped the top and side out of the photo because you can see people in the background as

nothing will take focus off the image.

Here I used the polygonal lasso tool to just get the performing arts part because due to it being an arts

magazine, having the sign saying it makes it more clear. I used the polygonal tool because there was a fire

escape sticker and you can see the lights which doesn’t look good for the photo so I took it out.
