Photoshop practice


After spending a media lesson experimenting with photoshop i have created this above.
What i did was search for a music artist on google, I found a image of Michael Jackson, saved it and then opened it onto photoshop. The problem i came across next was because when you open up an image on photoshop it creates another tab and I didn't know how to move it, my lecturer told me that I had to copy and paste it through to the tab with he background, there I could use  free transform, what you do is hold shift and you can alter the size and where it can be placed. I think this technique will be useful in the future, hopefully there I can try to fit multiple images on the front cover and contents page. in my opinion what I like about what I've done here is the image i took and he alterations I did. origionally the background was green but i changed it with the fill tool. I changed it to  blue because its a brighter and attractive to look at from my point of view. On the original image there was a red line on Jackson's lip, erased that with the rubber picked up what color was on the lips with the color tool and then used the paint brush tool. These were helpful and I know what to do with them. I didn't know how to change the text fonts , I wish i could have made it 3d or used a different colour, but I didn't know how to. The reason I didn't ask my lecturer is because I wanted to experiment around with it.

This task was very important, before now I didn't know how to use photoshop at all. but thanks to using it for one lesson i feel much more, comfitible. However I still have much to learn.
