Photoshop process

By Hibah Jan

This is the image I decided to use for my magazine cover. I used the magic wand and magnetic lasso to get rid of the background.

I like this image because the model is looking out to the audience, but also because of the objects used and there positioning.

If I was to change anything about this image it would be the facial expression as it could have been more inviting.

To create the title I went to Fontspace and searched for chalkboard fonts, I then picked one. I used the magic wand to get rid of the black background on the text. I created a layer for the text and another for the image of a chalkboard to creat the tile.

In this image I was working on the lighting, I was seeing what went well with the tone of the title and other aspects of the magazine cover.

I did this by pressing Ctrl, L then using the sliders to change the lighting in the image.

In this image I have added a border to the title, I did this by creating a new layer and adding a shape with the texture of wood from PowerPoint.

I also added a image of lined paper to the back on another new layer

I then worked of the lighting of the wooden frame around the title, I did this my pressing Ctrl, L and using the sliders to get my desired tone.

I clicked on and off the preview option to see the before and after to make sure the lighting was just right.
