E Wallpaper ( Assignment 1)















My first wallpaper
















This wallpaper is after edit as told by the tutor.



1) i added the fom building image and used masking technique on it. then i made a new layer and added the gradient. later i added effect onto it.

2)i added text ( welcome to mmu open day , faculty of management , 21 march 2010 and the contact address). i used effects on it .selected colour and fonts.

3) i used mmu logo to put it on the building to show the fom building. under it i wrote fom with differnt font style and matched it with the background colour using opacity.

4) then on the left hand side of wallpaper i added the pictures followed by text. Like i added the class room image and stated that the campus has lab, classrooms and tutorial rooms; for student image i wrote total student strength etc. i added effects to the text to look more clear as it was too small.

5) behind the images i added a rectangular shape block and reduced its colour using hue and rgb. the reason i added it was to show the features of mmu fom on one side of wallpaper.

6) in order to create this wallpaper i took reference and learned what to do and how from the following link. the link is http://graphicssoft.about.com/od/photoshop/l/blrbps_2fwks.htm .

Photo Retouching




















this image is before the retouching process






























This is after editing.

The main tools used in order to edit the image are

1) Clone tool - to recover from cracks on face , teeth and hair.
2) Clone pattern tool - for the boundaries of image ( the one in yellow colour , maroon colour, and white colour behind the person)
3) Smudge tool - i used it to make the brown colour on the frame smooth.
4) Layers - i used layer on the person . i selected the person first using the lasso magnetic tool and the using a new layer over it i adjusted the colour (hue, rgb). For the shirt , cap and hair i used layer and added colours and using opacity i adjusted it. To colour the patch on the cap i used magic wand and added colour to it.

Drawing face using computer components






















This is my first assignment of photoshop which required to make a face using computer components.
For the face the computer components used are :-

1)Webcam - as Eyes and its base as Eyebrows
2)Handscanner - as Nose
3)Printer - as Mouth

IN order to make this face i used a layer of shapes from the shape tool - The ellipse tool . once it was done then using the gradient i just marked the above part of face ie the forehead and just brough it till the level of hair which formed as the head. then using the smudge tool i crossed over it to make it appear as hair.
After it i made another layer which made over the layer before and filled it with yellow colour. using the opacity i adjusted the colour in order to bring the colour of the head and hair which i did in the first step.

after this i used the computer components . i opened the image and using magic wand i selcted the picture . then i pressed ctrl+shift+i and I selected the inner part and copied to the face. The same thing i did for the nose and mouth. Later i adjusted them by rotating and adjusting them to proper place in the face.
To add additional things i just coloured the cheeks using the spray tool and then by using the smudge tool i just scattered the pink colour a bit to be even.
