I
think the opie photo was successful, photoshop showed to be helpful and easy to
use once I became more familiar with the basics. photoshop was useful as it
allowed me to use layers for individual items (such as hair, face and
features), this helped me look at the positioning of features and lighting for
hair by allowing me to see where my hair had different colours. The task helped
me improve my skills at photoshop, and helped me learn how to use IMacs properly.
During this task I used a photo of myself as a template; I then used the lasso
tool on new layers to make a basic design of my main features (such as my face
and hair). The next job was to add smaller features on more layers (such as
hair highlights and features) I found the task enjoyable as it allowed us to
begin editing a photo to make it look simplified.
