poster printscreen colour a2

I got this blueprint

background from Google,

saved it as a picture and

opened it up on Photoshop

elements 10

This was my original end poster product,

however I felt that the two left actors were

too dark to see their faces clearly unlike

the two actors on the right.

…So I decided that the best thing to do would be to adjust the

lighting of my images, however I had to delete the two images

because they could not be edited on further, without being simplified

first, so It wouldn’t have allowed me to remove the dark lighting in

the first place.

Firstly I went back to one of my original shots in my

photo gallery and opened the photo on Photoshop

Next I used the quick selection tool to

remove the background and the rest of

the models that were in the original

image, most importantly to refine the

edges of my main image.

Then I duplicated this image

and placed it onto my film

poster file

The proceeding steps was a

repetition of the previous process

with my second image/model.

Next I adjusted the brightness

and contrast of both the actors at

equal settings, so that the

matched the brightness of the

actors on the opposite side.

Finally I decided to replicate this action onto my main

actress in the middle, as I noticed that through

editing the brightness of the rest of the cast, she

looked dull and dim in comparison to the rest of the

images on my poster.
