The document describes various Photoshop tools used to edit a magazine cover photograph. The magnetic lasso tool was used to cut out the background for a precise finish. The blemish tool created a flawless, airbrushed skin finish, while the eraser tool cleaned up edges missed by other tools. Additional tools like the blur, text, and fill tools were applied to further refine the cover design.

2. Magnetic Lasso Tool
• I used the magnetic lasso tool to cut out
the background of my feature article
photograph. I dragged it around the
edge of my photograph to allow me to
achieve an accurate finish.
• This was successful in cutting out my
photograph as it automatically finds the
edge of the picture, meaning that I could
get a precise finish

feature article photograph to
create a flawless, airbrushed

I used the eraser tool to clean
up any edges that were not
picked up by the magic eraser
tool.
Blur Tool
I used the blur tool around the
edges of the feature article
photograph to create a

I used the text tool to create my
masthead, plugs, puff and cover
lines.
