IMAGE 1
Opposite it shows my original image for the contents page. Seeing
as I didn’t need the background of the image, I used the
Magnetic Lasso Tool in order to crop around
my model, which would then just leave me of her, ready for me to manipulate later on.

Once I cropped the background, I created
a new layer, and pasted the image onto
that. Seeing as the cutting wasn’t neat enough, I used the
Eraser Tool to fix the edges of the image, which would make it look neater, leaving a smooth effect overall.
IMAGE 1
It now shows the image after I used the Eraser Tool to neaten the edges. I
then wanted to manipulate the
image by adjusting the brightness etc.
in order to do this, I clicked on Image at the top, and then
went into Adjustments, and
finally, into Levels, which allowed me to experiment with the
different levels of colour present
within the image.
IMAGE 1
After I added in an effect to the image, I
noticed that my model had a blue strap
showing, doesn’t go with the rest of the
outfit. To change this, I used the Magnetic Lasso Tool to select the strap, so that I
could then change the colour.

It now shows that I used
Hue/Saturation to adjust the colour,
changing it to black, so that it
matches with the rest of the outfit.

Once I had manipulated the
image completely, I inserted it onto
the actual Contents Page. I then saw that it didn’t exactly fit
in well, as it didn’t look professional. You could clearly tell that I cropped
the image, and just placed it
randomly onto the page. I then
decided to use another image instead of this
one.
IMAGE 2
This is the second image that I decided to use for the
Contents Page. Again, I used the Magnetic Lasso Tool to crop around the model,
which would exclude the
background.
IMAGE 2
Just like the other image, I had to change the blue strap into black, and I used the
same method as before to do this. I selected the strap, and changed the colour to black
using Hue/Saturation.
IMAGE 2
I then had to manipulate this
image, just like I did with the first one. I changed the levels
of the image. However, I also
used Colour Balance for this image, which I
didn’t use for the previous one. This allowed me to add more effects to the
image.
IMAGE 2
It now shows the final version of my image, which has been placed onto
the Contents Page. I also added in a shadow to the image, which
makes it look more effective. Evidently,
this image goes better with the
Contents Page than the last one. This is
also my final version of the
Contents Page.
