Wine glass photoshoot


2nd picture is the original picture that I shot and 2nd picture is the same picture after I finished editing it. First thing I did was cutting out only the part that I needed and then I changed levels of the picture to change some color and make it a bit darker the last thing I did was put some details in this picture by using 'sharpen tool'.
For this picture I used flash light to make the color more HD, after this I also did another shoot with same glass and water but I used continues lighting. Those pictures came out it bad quality and was hard to edit, this is why I didn't attach any of those pictures to my post.
Overall, for shooting shoots like this, it's better to use flash than continues lighting. It might look different on camera but when you see the picture bigger (eg. on PC), it looks completely different and it doesn't look professional at all.

Food photoshoot 2#

These are first pictures I took, in these pictures I used only 1 fruit [apple]. I like how in edit, I made the color look more natural and the water splash is in a very good detail, however, the apple turned out too dark.

In the second shoot I wanted to try with 2, lemon and aple. Same as before, I like the detail of the water in my second picture and I think the fruit dont look too dark so it still looks really good.



Food photoshoot


1st picture is the original and 2nd picture is what it looks like after I edited it. I also added some background to make the food look more with natural colors and more interesting.

For this picture I added some levels to make it more darker and then I used 'sharpen tool' to make the detail stand out.

Movie poster.


This is poster that I made for my script.
I think it turned out looking good, however it kind of reminds me more of a magazine's cover page. I think overall I managed to make it just as I wanted. It did take a lot of time to change it, however I knew what I wanted to do with the picture so that made it easier.
Tools used:
Healing brush tool
Eraser tool
Gradient tool
Sharpen tool
Dodge tool
Burn tool
Horizontal type tool
 
For the main picture I changed 'curves', 'exposure', levels, 'brightness', and I played around with color balance.
For the text in this picture I used 'SteelTongs', 'Haettenschweiler' and 'Viner Hand ITC'. For some of the text I also added effects - drop shadow.
And this is the original picture that I used for my poster.

Future of the Crawley

In this task I were asked to take 3 different photos or 1 photo of crawley and edit it to show different possibilities for the future of the Crawley.

Original:
Edited
 
In this first picture I did I made it look more like technology took over because as we know, technology is getting updatad and it is only matter of time when we will be able to do everything using technology. In this picture I added the huge moon at the background, nasa plain, some robots (I tried to look for robots that look similar to humans) and robot dog (pet).

This second picture shows two moons going together and a tree on the side which shows that Crawley looks more exotic and interesting, however the houses are still there and cars are the same.
