This document discusses image editing techniques used in Photoshop to prepare a front cover image for a magazine. The image was cropped to focus on the model's head, and the saturation, lightness, and exposure were adjusted to brighten the overall image and make it stand out. Specific areas like the lips were selected using tools like the Magnetic Lasso and Selective Color to change colors and ensure they matched the magazine's genre.

1. Image Manipulation
This is the front cover image before edited in Photoshop.

2. This is me cropping the image so the main focus is on the head area of the model.
I changed the Saturation and Lightness on the image so the image would brighten up so it matches
the genre of the magazine. I changed the Saturation to +33 and the Lightness to -2.
I then changed the Exposure on the image to brighten up the background and for-ground. I changed
the Exposure to +1.33 this makes the image stand out more instead of having a dull background.

3. By choosing the Magnetic Lasso tool I will chose a certain area on the magazine and edit that so
nothing else on the image changes.
I decided to change the colour on the lips to make the lips stand out and be a brighter pink to match
the genre of the magazine.

4. I changed the colour of the lips by choosing Selective Colour I changed the Cyan to 100%, Magenta
to 100% and Yellow to -104% this made the vibrant Fuchsia colour to match the pop genre.
