Photoshop Tutorial No.1


This was my first attempt at some photoshop work, using some of the more advanced tool.

I got a picture of a celebrity and cut him out using the magic wand tool. I then drag and dropped him onto a new page, and started to play around with the colour.

I made the background layer purple and this effected the changes made to the picture. I changed the layer styles and found one that i liked then added text and a drop shadow as well as an effect to the text called pillow which makes the text more 3D.

For my first attempt I think that the image looks good and could be improved with more images and text, for example the front of a magazine. I may consider using some of these effects when it comes to producing my actual ancillary piece.
