CIOS 152 Project 3 part 2 dancing

I had to take some time with this picture. First i had a friend help me take my picture cause I'm not very coordinated with a camera in one hand and trying to pose lol. So after that i imported my picture and cut my head out which wasn't too hard. However my head was all the same shade even thou it was diffrent shades in color. So i took a brush and swiped my head a few times with white and used the soft light blend mode to get the finish on my face. But then my hair was tool light, so i took the burn tool and fixed my hair. I used the clone stamp tool to clear the other guys face out of the photo because if i had just left my head on his, either A. my head would be way too big, or B. part of his head would still be there. After all that I cleaned up the shirt and my neck a little and blurred the hard points to make it look smoother.

CIOS 152 Project 3 part 1 selection

I used the Rectanguler marquee tool twice once for veritcal and the second as "add to selection" to make a large cross in the middle of my file. Then still using the rectanguler marquee tool on add to selection mode, I made the four outer squares. Then i used the Elliptical marquee tool with subtract form selection and clicked the upper left corner with the shift key held down and draged it to the lower right corner and let it go to cut out that area. Then using the Polygonal lasso to make each of the triangles by making three points, which cut out that area of the selection. Then i used the paint bucket tool once to fill in everything i had selected.

CIOS 152 Project 2 part 2 Color

This project kicked my butt. I can't tell you how many diffrent ways i tried to get this just right. By the time i got the lamp light to go green the whole room was yellow, after fighting with the red for hours to get the blue i just about gave up on the bed as it was as orange as orange could get. My biggest problem was i needed yellow to get green light but i had to cut it out to get the red i wanted. finaly i got the blue window, the green light and the red bed, and there was no way i could get the wall the right color that i wanted.

I push the colors to diffrent ends of the spectrum to get more whites and blacks to try and match the other picture.

Red 90%

yellow 90%

Green 300%

Cyan 100%

Blue 100%

Magenta 300%

this was the reading of the black and white function at the end with a tint hue of 30% and saturation of 15%

Then i continued to play around with the levels til i was happy with what i did.
