2/22/2018 0 Comments Photoshop 5 ~ Multiple MeAnother week, another Photoshop assignment. This time around, I inserted multiple versions of ourselves (or of somebody else) into a single frame. Several guidelines were given to me: 1) The camera needed to be secured to a tripod, to prevent slight shifts in perspective/positioning 2) The camera needed to be in manual, landscape mode 3) Lighting, zoom, and surroundings needed to remain constant throughout the shoot 4) The background needed to be free of moving objects With those requirements met, I was to take 5 shots: 1 of an empty room, followed by 4 of somebody in different spots around that room. My younger sister (once again) posed as my model. Finally, I loaded those 5 shots into Photoshop and followed step-by-step instructions for transforming my sister into a quadruplet. Overall, this assignment wasn't difficult. The only aspect that gave me pause was finding an area wide enough for taking photos: several times, I found that there wasn't enough room to position my sister in 4 different ways without one pose overlapping/blocking another.
Within Photoshop, I was introduced to lassos and layer masks. Both were simple, efficient, and user-friendly. Even refining layer edges ("black conceals, white reveals") was fairly easy -- far less tedious than working with the quick selection tool.
