Dodge and Burn Work!
I took this picture from this week of my daughter, and thought it would be a good one to use for this assignment. I removed the (ahem) cracker from her cheek, cropped a bit of the right hand side of the picture out; then set to work. I used the burn tool initially with a big brush to go over everything but Addison and the wood of the door. Then I made it smaller and went around the edges with the burn tool to make it cohesive. Then I used the dodge tool to go over the wood, and Addisons skin. I feel like it just very easily makes her the center of the world, and everything else- even someones feet- disappear.

Samantha,
ReplyDeleteWhat you did with the second photo is tremendous. The quality of the photo became almost antique like quality. The centering of your daughter and cropping was a good choice.

The edits really put the focus on your daughter and made the overall scene less busy. How were you able to get such and even coverage with the dodge tool?
ReplyDeleteBig brush :D Then a smaller one to go around the edges.
ReplyDeleteI agree....the edit takes the reflection out and makes the pictures look a lot lesss busy, and makes the viewer focus more on what you want them to see....your daughter! Great Job!
