1. For pictures.

2. Firstly, I selected the hair of the model (in this case Florence
and the machine) by using the magnetic lasso tool. I then
increased the vibrancy of the hair colour to make it seem
brighter. By feathering the lasso tool, it means when I select
the area I want, there is no jagged lines around the outside
of the area. It also makes the selected area look softer,
smoother and more natural.

3. The colour balance on Photoshop
controls the amount of each
colour in the picture. By adjusting
this you can put a coloured tint
over a photo. As well a this if you
selected an area on a photo then
used each bar on here, you can
change the colour of the area
selected.

4. • An easier way however, if you wanted
to change a specific colour to another
is to go to:
This means that
you can replace
all colour you
select by using
the eyedropper
tool, to another
colour of your
choice.

5. Example:

6. • Another thing you can do is switch areas of
or even the full image to black and white.
This doesn’t look a natural but I think still
gives a good effect.

7. You can also superimpose backgrounds onto the image. This doesn’t give a natural
effect but it is a good skill to have and use when making a magazine as you can
superimpose backgrounds of for example a venue for gig/concert into an image you have
taken in room against a screen. First, copy and paste the background desired onto the
same document on Photoshop.

8. Then select the min focal point of the image the right click for select inverse.
Then delete the background of the image and make sure the background layer
is underneath the layer of your main picture.
