CONSTRUCTION

EDITING PRACTISE This is how I am going to cut out the backgrounds of my images to give it a white background/ discard the elements of the background I didn’t like in that particular picture. I am going to use the serif software to achieve this

Websites such as Taaz helped me edit facial features that I thought needed some adjustments. As shown is the image Taaz allowed me to outline the shape of the lips which was very useful because it was going to apply the makeup accordingly.

These are other examples of how I used Taaz

I could change the skin tone of my models. This is going to be useful if my model has uneven skin tone i.e. near the armpit area.

Because when I took my images the lighting wasn’t good enough, I enhanced the quality it by manipulating the exposure, highlights, shadows and contrast. This was going to help me create that healthy glow.

EDITING PRACTISE

To make my models thinner I used Ipiccy’s thinify. This made them look thinner which is a prominent size/weight in pop industry. Ipiccy allowed me to proportionally do this compared to me using the resizing tool on photo editor to do so.

To improve the quality of the image I’m going to use airbrush.

EDITING PRACTISE

To make the colour of her eyes stand out or to change them I used Ipiccy which gave me a variety of colours I could use and the tone and fade at which I wanted them to be at.

The lip stick I had initially put on my model was not glossy or bright enough so Ipiccy allowed me to change the colour of the lips as well as making them gloss.

To brighten the eyes on my images I used Ipiccy as well.

Before I edited my image it lacked quality in lighting therefore it looked dull but after I edited the photo it had improved lighting and quality.

Before I edited the image the quality of it was too mediocre for the front cover so I had to enhance the quality in order for it to stand out more which is essential for a front cover image because that’s what pulls the audience to the magazine.

When I took the first image the flash made it too bright so toned her down using ipiccy. I also added the grey background to make her stand out.

I just increased the exposure to improve the lighting making her brighter in order for her to stand out on the front cover.

MASTHEAD

To create the masthead I used a pre-existing font and drew over it because I just wanted the outline of it. For the ‘I’ I also used a pre-existing photograph and used the swatch tool to turn her into a icon.
