Photoshop

Firstly, I opened the right image into Adobe Photoshop. I used the contrast and brightness tool to change the colour and lighting of the image, then I used the ‘Magic eraser tool’ to get rid of all the background. After this, I cropped the image to the needed size, I then made the correct size and coloured box on another page of Photoshop and dragged the image onto the right box that I wanted, then pressed ‘apply’ to confirm that my image stayed there.

In this PowerPoint I will how I created a professional looking Image that was used on my Billboard poster. I will talk you through the different steps that it took to achieve the end result. I used the Print Screen button to capture exactly what I did, and to show my steps of making the product. This made it easier for me to explain Step by Step.

Firstly, I opened the right image into Adobe Photoshop

I have chosen this image because the character has a confident expression on his face, which I think will give the audience a sex appeal atmosphere. This particular pose also links in well with the story line, as he is a player and the pose gives off this impression well.

I used the contrast and brightness tool to change the colour and lighting of the image.

I needed to change the brightness of the image, as the lighting made the image look very dull and boring. I also changed the contrast of the image to make the boldness standout more then you first look at it.

Then I used the ‘Magic eraser tool’ to get rid of all the background.

I needed to use the ‘Magic eraser’ tool to get rid of the background because I needed to change each background colour of each image so they contrasted and you could see all the characters were in a different box.

I first pressed the ‘magic eraser’ tool and it only got rid of some of the background, so I had to press it again on the green bits until they were completely gone, and I had a clear background.

After this, I cropped the image to the needed size

The image had to be made smaller, as when I put it on the billboard all together, the audience would not be able to see his face.

I then made the correct size and coloured box on another page of Photoshop

Then pressed ‘apply’ to confirm that my image stayed there.

I then repeated this with all my other images to create the final media product of a billboard.
