Editing

Everything that is in the media has been edited, either to make the person 'better' looking or to add a effect to make the picture stand out more. So for one of our tasks we had to edit three pictures, a close-up shot, mid shot and a long shot. For my close-up shot I took a picture of Kiera Knightly. I've not edited her face at all but I've given the picture a colour background, and I put a darker shade round her head then I used the burn tool to make her hair a shade darker and then used the smudge tool to slightly blend her hair into the background. The original unedited images are the bottom images and the ones I've edited are the top images.

 For the mid image I edited a picture of Mila Kunis. For this I increased the brightness, sharpness and the colour to give it a warmer tint to it. 

                                             

 

For the long shot I chose a picture of Cara Delevigne. On this picture I cut her out and pasted her 3 times. I then added a gradient to the left of the picture which was black and white and on the right of the picture I took away the black and white effect slightly so you can see her skin tone.
