Collage
Project Name: Collage
For my background, I copied a picture of a background and pasted it to my workspace. I found a soccer ball picture and a picture of a cross and pasted them onto my background. I used the quick selection tool to take off the parts of the images that I didn't want. I also found an image of Biggby Coffee and added it to my background. I doubled clicked on the Beaner's layer and the cross layer to get into the layer style blending options and added a drop shadow to both. I also found a photostrip online and pasted it onto the background. I added a drop shadow also. I added four pictures to put into the photostrip. I used the polygonal lasso tool to crop the solo challenge picture. I added three more photos to put into the photostrip. I resized all four pictures using free transform and rotated them with free transform to fit into the photostrip. I added a filter to all four of those photos also. I selected the artistic filter and applied grain to them. I then added the picture Avenue and added a drop shadow to it. Then I duplicated Avenue so I could change the blending mode to overlay. I also found a Twilight book cover and added it to my background. I used the eyedrop tool to select a red from the apple. Then I selected the picture and put the number of pixels for the border at five. I then added the color and feathered the border. I added two other pictures and used the same technique to add a border to each of them. I found a picture of some music notes and a different picture of push pins. I used the quick selection tool to get rid of the white around them. I used the move tool to postion them over pictures and images. I used free transform to rotate the music notes. I then found an image of note paper and added a drop shadow to it. I used the type tool to add a verse over the top. I changed the color of it and added another type tool for the reference. I added another type tool for my name and used the free transform to rotate it and the move tool to position it on my photostrip.
Overall I was pretty happy with my collage. I was worried at first because I didn't really understand what to do. But once I got the general of what I wanted my collage to look like and how to use photoshop it started to come together. I really like the pictures I chose and I think that it looks pretty good.
The Perfect Storm
For this image I started with a single photo of a flash of lightning over water. Then I applied a layer effect of overlay with a 100% opacity. Next I added a different photo of water that was rougher. I used the free transform tool to position, size, and warp it to the space given and make it look realistic. I also cropped the original photo. I placed the water layer below the lighting photo so that it blended more and shone through. Next I added the clouds. I found a picture of clouds on the internet and imported it. Then I applied a gradient layer to it so that only part of it showed and it sort of blended into the picture. Next I added the shark fin. I got it free floating by using the magnetic lasso then I changed the layer blending mode to darken and opacity to 100. Lastly I made it look like it was raining or had a haze. I did this by following a tutorial online. During it I used the cloud render filter and the Gaussian blur filter.
