Learning About Adobe Photoshop 6 Lesson 2

We had a second lesson with Mrs Craddock where we learnt abit more about Adobe Photoshop Elements. In this lesson we learnt how to use the lasso tool and the magnetic lasso tool and how to change the colour and saturation of images once we had cut them. I think i will use this when creating my music magazine and CD digipak because most pictures i take will have a background of some sort and i want a plain white background, so i can use this tool to cut out all the background and replace it with a plain white one.
The steps
First of all we chose an image we wanted to edit.

Then we opened it in photoshop using browse with bridge.
Once we had done this we were ready to start editing. We selected the Lasso tool where you can cut parts of the image in this case we wanted to cut the artist out. Once we cut the artist out we could then put a filter on it so i decided to do a feather filter then we cut and pasted it in to a new photoshop.

  1. This is excellent evidence of your skills developing Chelsea. I would like to see much more of this sort of thing in future. It is really good practice to illustrate what you are doing in stages. You can use the same principle for your filming by taking photographs of each shoot as it is happening.
