The document describes the process Laura Bruce took to create a magazine cover. She began by designing the title using a text font in Photoshop. Then, she inserted a photo she had taken and used the quick selection tool to cut out the model from the background. Next, she refined the mask by using edge detection and increasing the radius to soften edges and bring back hair details. Finally, she used the color replacement tool to remove a green tint that was reflected onto the model's jacket from the background.
2. I started by creating the title of the magazine,
to do this I used a text font which is on
Photoshop and then inserted an image which I
had taken. I used the quick selection tool to cut
out the model from the background. Once the
image was cut out I inverted the image and
then selected the refine mask option. I the
used the edge detection and increased the
radius of the image this then softened the
image so that the edges didn’t look ruff, this
also brought back some of the hair around the
edges which has been cut whilst using the
quick selection tool. After the image was cut
out and masked I used the colour replacement
tool to get rid of the green tint which had been
reflected onto the jacket from the background.
