Research And Planning: Movie Poster Activity

Film Poster

1. First I had to select a picture of a movie poster from google images to add my face to. I then dragged my chosen image onto the desktop and opened it up in photoshop.

2. Second I took a photo of myself using photo booth pulling a similar expression to the person I was putting my face on. This made the poster seem more realistic.

3. Once I had taken my picture I opened it up in photoshop. I then used the magnetic lasso tool. This tool allows me to select my face without having to draw around it. It makes it neater as it automatically selects points on my face.

4. Then I grabbed the cut out using the move tool and placed it on my picture.

5. Finally i changed the shape and size till my face fit perfectly onto the image. I used the brightness/contrast tool to make my face the same colour as the neck. Then i changed the colour balance to give my face the same tint as the poster. To give my poster a more realistic look I added a shadow to my face using the paint brush tool. I changed the opacity of the brush so that it was more of a shadow than a thick line.
