Lecture

Introduction & Briefing

Mr Martin showed us how to use Photoshop during lecture class. Before he started teaching us, he sent us a drive link and told us to download four photographs to practise cropping the item inside the photo. Mr Martin begins by introducing the item within Photoshop and instructing us on how to use the Marquee Selection Tools. Mr Martin then instructs us to place the backdrop layer at the bottom, as it will cover everything if it is placed at the top. Last but not least, Mr Martin provided us with feedback on our week two practical.

Basic tools in Photoshop ( Lasso Tool, Pen Tool and Layering ):
  • Lasso Tool ~  To draw and pinpoint specific areas of a document. There are three types of Lasso Tool which is Lasso, Polygonal Lasso and Magnetic  Lasso.
  • Pen Tool ~ To create path from scratch by adding and dragging the points.
  • Layering ~ Different images are stacked on top of one another to form layers. To make adjustments, we can use each layer separately from the others. They combine to form a single image.

Feedback

Mr. Martin suggested to choose digital collage#2 as the final and I agreed with that because it show more basic composition than others digital collage that I create such as the scale, focal point ,rule of thirds and contrast were shown .

Final Digital Collage






Reflection

It was challenging to find out how to combine numerous images into attractive images at first. But I've been trying with various arrangements. I like every work pieces and the process of making it. Because I don't have to spend time cutting images as I do with the manual collage. You can edit images beautifully using digital collage in only a few clicks.
