1. ‘Create A Portrait From Text In
Photoshop’
I created this image on the left using a
picture of Lana Del Rey. The text is the
lyrics to her song, West Coast. I like
this effect and think it’s a good editing
technique. It’s also not that hard to
actually do, but you do have to choose
a picture that will give it the best
possible appearance. I think doing this
task went quite well because it’s not
complicated. It also helped to first edit
the lyrics in Word before pasting them
into the text box because it means that
the words are already in a solid block
and makes the whole process faster.
Looking at the final product, I think it
could have looked better if the image
was more compatible with the
technique. However, I don’t think it
looks bad overall and I am impressed
with the next Photoshop techniques I’m
learning about. I think this will be very
useful later in the course.
