The importance of Photoshop

 

Once we had selected a photo, we needed to apply effects that made it look professional and realistic. We used the lighting effects to create a shadowed background and make our actor appear as if he was in a spotlight. This gave the image a more official feel and we all feel really happy with how the photo turned out. 

 

 

 

We used the text tool to insert lots of numbers and symbols to the background of the image to carry on our theme of numbers and eqations that Johnny sees in the film. We then used the magic want tool to remove any excess symbols that we didn't need such as the ones covering his face.

 

 

 

Style settings allowed us to give the text we used on the poster a more preofessional look. By adding a drop shadow or a glow, we could make the text look more authentic. It enabled us to get a more realistc-looking poster.



The editing tools that photoshop have are incredibly simple to use and result in a product being created quickly and easily yet they look professional at the same time. We are really happy with our final product and feel that photoshop has been a superb programme to use for this particular piece of our production.
