Final Images for Project 4.

After working on these images for a total of over 15 hours on photoshop I think it's time for a long break from looking at them. These are the final images for the project.

We were originally going to add a letter of the word 'Diesel' into each photo (hence why there is 6 photos). I tried to do this but we were using letters taken from the internet. Some of these letters were low quality and therefore couldn't be enlarged as much as they needed to be without pixelating.

For the photos I used the quick selection tool to cut out the models from the studio background and place them on the backgrounds. I then used the eraser tool to cut off any extra pixels I caught from the studio background.

Once I had the model completely cut out and placed on the background I used the blur tool to smooth the edges. Finally for some of the images I put a 'drop shadow' on the model. This creates a shadow as though she is really outside under the light and leaving a shadow on the background. Some of the backgrounds for the photos had to be adjusted to level the brightness of the model.
