2. I opened my image in
PhotoShop and immediately
started playing with filters in
order to get the artistic look
I needed to match the house
style of Little White Lies. By
going Filters > Artistic I was
able to find many filters
which I found to be
interesting.
The one that I chose was
‘Poster Edges’, as it gave my
image a creative, cartoony
feel which I felt linked in
strongly with the style of
LWL, while still keeping the
image realistic and romantic.
3. Then I simply cropped
my image to the
210x297 ratio it needed
to be, and then
changed the image size
to the same in mm. The
image then became a
shoulders and above
shot, which still works.
I changed the curves, colour
balance, and contrast of the
image, all to make it seem
brighter and more
cartoonish, using red and
purple hues to connote
towards the romantic genre
of the film.
