3. MANIPULATED IMAGES
CHANGES TO IMAGE
I wanted to make my image brighter, more
luminous, crop it and the rotate it so that it was
squint and not straight. I used Photoshop CS5 to
do this and edit my image.
Firstly I went to adjustments and chose
the brightness/contrast option to
change the brightness, dullness and
shadows. I then brightened my image
up more and darkened the shadows so
that the outline of the letters would
make the letters clearer.
To make my photograph more
luminous and to change the colour
theme I used hue/saturation. I
made my image more saturated so
that it would have a glow to it and
then used hue to change the colour
scheme.
Using the cropping tool I then cropped the
picture so it wouldn’t be as cramped and there
wouldn't be as many numbers. As I cropped
this image I ticked the perspective box so I
could rotate my picture. I rotated my photo so
that it would be squint and to make it different
from the original photograph.

the file format from
JPEG to TIF.

CHANGES TO IMAGE
I wanted to make my image brighter, change the
colour scheme to oranges and reds, crop it and
the rotate it so that it was straight. I used Adobe
Photoshop 7 to do this and edit my image.
I cropped my image first so there
wasn’t much background in it and
it was only the car you could focus
on. While cropping it I rotated it to
make the wheels and roof parallel
so it would be straight.
1 To give my image a washed
away look I used the smudge
tool so that it would give off a
nice effect.
2
I then used the curve tool to
make the shadows in the
image a lot darker and give
the image more dominance.

And finally I went to greyscale and
used this effect to change my colour
scheme. I chose the
“blue, red, yellow” choice so that it
would mostly be red and yellow in
the photo and I knew this would
make my image very fiery and eye
catching.

CHANGES TO IMAGE
Using Adobe Photoshop 7 I edited my photograph of a
mushroom. I wanted my photo to be cropped so that all the
unnecessary parts of the object disappeared and I also wanted
to straighten it. I then wanted it to be brighter and I wanted to
make the shadows darker so the image would stand out more.
1 I firstly cropped my image
taking a lot of the green grass
out of it so there would be more
focus on the mushroom.
2
I then clicked on the image option
and chose adjustments then chose
brightness/contrast and I made the
image brighter and heightened the
contrast as well.

I then clicked on
perspective to then
straighten the image so it
was diagonal on the
screen.
4 Finally I then saved my image
but I changed the file format to
TIF instead of keeping it as
JPEG.
11. HOW TO CHECK IMAGE
QUALITY
First of all enlarge the image to as big as it will on
your computer screen.
Look closely at the main focus on the image and
check to see if all of its detail is in focus and not
fuzzy, and make sure the outlines of the objects
are straight if they are supposed to be and it is a
solid line.
Make sure the image is straight and not out of
place and not squint.
Check that the colours are the way you want
them to be and it is set to the settings you would
like and if you tick all of these boxes then your
image quality should be perfect!
12. HEALTH CONSIDERATIONS
Display Screen Equipment (DSE) also known as Visual
Display Units (VDU):
This issue is caused mostly by computer screens, the symptoms
of this issue are temporary eyestrain and headaches, and
fatigue/stress. The DSE is mainly used by people who work in
with computers, there fore every employee working with a
computer should be given a computer to suite there needs to
stop these effects from happening.
The worker should be given regular breaks away from the
computer screen, but not breaks to have a coffee or to have a
chat, just a short break away from the screen to allow them to
rest their eyes from the screen to stop this from happening.
The staff could make phone calls, run errands or other work
related jobs to just keep them away from the computer and let
their mind concentrate on other things.
13. LEGAL AND ETHICAL
CONSIDERATIONS
Copyright, trademarks, patents, industrial design
rights and trade secrets are all included in
Intellectual Property Rights.
This right is based around inventors and authors so
that their original design and idea is not copied by
other people and they have a right that it is their
own and no one else's.
People say it gives “absolute protection” so that
absolutely no one can copy their designs and
writing, and all if not most inventors and authors
will use this right so they receive the full greatness
of knowing its their own.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS
14. The Obscenity Act is where you cannot publish
obscene pictures of anyone or anything, such as
publishing a book with naked photographs, putting
inappropriate photos of yourself or someone onto a
social networking site, or a blog etc.
This act is also to stop people
swearing, cursing, lewdness, blasphemy and
excessive drinking.
This has also made pornography illegal to things like
“exposure for sale” and “obscene books and
prints”.

15. This is all about privacy, such as going to the doctors
or telling a therapist things, when you tell them
confidential (private) things, they are not allowed to
tell anyone unless it could harm yourself or others
around you.
“Confidentiality is a set of rules or a promise that
limits access or places restrictions on certain types
of information.”
LEGAL AND ETHICAL
CONSIDERATIONS
CONFIDENTIALITY
16. The laws have now changed so that you cannot take
any images of minors without parental consent. This
is because of paedophiles and perverts.
It used to be that when you went to your Childs
school play that you could photograph and film the
performances but nowadays this is not allowed and
the teacher has to receive a signed consent form
from each Childs guardians saying that they are
allowing other people to photograph or film their
children.
