Satpal Singh created a magazine to provide cheap tourist information for visiting London. He took photos at a studio and on location to include in the magazine. Some photos were edited to improve their appearance: one was brightened and had increased saturation; another was cropped to focus on Big Ben; a third had the background removed to highlight the model; and others were brightened, sharpened, and had increased saturation to make them more eye-catching. Singh presented before and after edits of 10 photos to show the changes made for the magazine.

2. The magazine I have created is a magazine that provides
tourists visiting London with helpful information they
need to know when visiting the city. It will help them try
and keep their figures right down to a minimum as
visiting the city can be very expensive, so by using this it
will sort of be cheating and often undercutting the middle
man and helping families have a wonderful cheap
experience in London. To help me do this is will need to
use a variety of pictures that I have taken myself at a
studio shoot and a location shoot. A few of the images
have been edited so they look even better on the
magazine in this PowerPoint I will show you the before
and after shots of the images I have edited.

I have edited this image to make the image
stand out a bit more the image has been
brightened and the saturation has been
increased which means that the colours in
the picture have been increased which
makes the image look brighter.

I have edited this image by cropping the size of it, as you can
see I have cropped the picture so the bird is not in the picture
which allows the viewer to simply focus on Big Ben. I cropped
this image so it would fit perfectly on my magazine front
cover. The picture I originally took was landscape, by cropping
it I turned it into a portrait which fits on my magazine.

I have edited this image so the background
disappears and all that the viewer can see is
the model. I did this because I wanted him on
top of the background so it would give it a
much better a professional look.

I have edited this picture by brightening and
sharpening the image I have also increased the
saturation. I did this so the picture would stand
out more because as you can see in the first
image it is quite bland and boring so now it looks
very good and eye catching.
