The document discusses how the author used various editing tools and software like Taaz, Ipiccy, and Photoshop to edit images for a magazine cover. This included cutting out backgrounds, adjusting facial features, changing skin tones, improving lighting and image quality, making models look thinner, altering eye and lip colors, and creating a masthead. The edits were intended to prepare the images for the magazine cover by improving qualities like lighting and making subjects stand out more.

2. This is how I am going Websites such as Taaz
to cut out the helped me edit facial
backgrounds of my features that I thought
images to give it a needed some adjustments.
white background/ As shown is the image Taaz
discard the elements of allowed me to outline the
the background I didn’t shape of the lips which
like in that particular was very useful because it
picture. I am going to was going to apply the
use the serif software makeup accordingly.
to achieve this
These are other examples of how I used Taaz

3. I could change the skin
tone of my models.
This is going to be
useful if my model has
uneven skin tone i.e.
near the armpit area.
Because when I took
my images the lighting
wasn’t good enough, I
enhanced the quality it
by manipulating the
exposure, highlights,
shadows and contrast.
This was going to help
me create that healthy
glow.

4. To improve the
quality of the image
I’m going to use
airbrush.
To make my models
thinner I used Ipiccy’s
thinify. This made
them look thinner
which is a prominent
size/weight in pop
industry. Ipiccy
allowed me to
proportionally do this
compared to me using
the resizing tool on
photo editor to do so.

5. To make the colour of
her eyes stand out or to
change them I used
Ipiccy which gave me a
variety of colours I could
use and the tone and
fade at which I wanted
them to be at.
The lip stick I had initially
put on my model was
not glossy or bright
enough so Ipiccy allowed
me to change the colour
of the lips as well as
making them gloss.
To brighten the eyes on
my images I used Ipiccy
as well.

9. Before I edited my image it lacked quality in lighting therefore it looked dull but after
I edited the photo it had improved lighting and quality.

11. Before I edited the image the quality of it was too mediocre for the front cover
so I had to enhance the quality in order for it to stand out more which is
essential for a front cover image because that’s what pulls the audience to the
magazine.

12. When I took the first image the flash made it too bright so toned her down
using ipiccy. I also added the grey background to make her stand out.
I just increased the
exposure to improve the
lighting making her
brighter in order for her
to stand out on the front
cover.

13. To create the
masthead I used a pre-
existing font and drew
over it because I just
wanted the outline of
it. For the ‘I’ I also
used a pre-existing
photograph and used
the swatch tool to turn
her into a icon.
