The document describes the steps taken to edit and manipulate photos for a music video booklet. It discusses cropping images to cut out unnecessary parts and resizing them to have similar proportions. Filters and effects were used to maintain the style of the music video. The before and after images show how the original photos were developed, including adding a neon filter, adjusting lighting, adding a transparent logo, and creating a title using a downloaded font.
