Image manipulation (best one)
The document describes the process of editing a photo in Photoshop for a magazine mock cover design. It details using tools like the spot healing brush, Gaussian blur, and adjusting brightness/contrast to remove imperfections and achieve a "soft focus" look while still maintaining definition. Background layers were used with the Gaussian blur to selectively apply effects. Color balance, exposure, and cutting were also adjusted to create a "dark, edgy" aesthetic appropriate for a rock magazine genre. Creating a mock-up in Publisher helped experiment with overall design before the final piece.
