PerfumeThing








       All the images above except for the last one are the images I used to create my master piece cologne ad. My idea behind this was that if I used animals it would reflect on the word "spirit" and myself with a sombrero would reflect on the word "life." Has for the black guy, he was simply there to create humor, because he is in a bamboo forest in China and you would not expect black men to be in China.

LETTHEREBECOLOR


To add a coloring effect to your boring life you must follow my wise steps to fulfill your life. Go to image>Adjustments>Desaturate, because I said so. Next, select the history brush and make it whatever size you need , but make sure the hardness is 100%. Now just paint over whatever you want to colorize and hip-hip-hooray! you are now done.

Highpass


The image on the top of the screen is the high pass added effect image. Begin by duplicating the background layer and change the blending mode of the duplicate to overlay. After that add a high pass and then change the blending mode layer of the duplicate to soft light or hard light, and if you feel the saturation is too much just change the opacity to 80%.

Sepia


To get the sepia color image you must follow these steps. Step 1: If your image is in color, go to image > adjustments > desaturate and then skip to step 3. Step 2: If the image is in gray scale, go to Image > Mode > RGB Color. Step 3: Go to image > adjust variations. Step 4: just move the slider down a little bit. Step 5: choose more yellow once and more red once. After these few and easy steps you now have a sepia color image.

Vignette


The image on the top is the new and modified image and the image on the bottom is the original image. Start with the elliptical marquee tool and draw an ellipse or circle on the area you want to focus on. then invert the selection and change the brightness so anything on the outside of the shape will turn darker. Then to darken it farther make a copy of the original layer and add a layer mask in which you will draw in with the brush tool (make sure you are using black as the foreground color.) Afterwards use the gradient tool and hit the circle selection to make a circle and change the layer mode to soft light or overlay and lastly change the opacity to 50%. Finally, if you really desire to add attraction to the center of the image or circle use the burn  and dodge tools.

Soft focus






                     I will begin this by stating that the top image is the original image and the bottom image is the soft focus shot. Began the soft focus shot by copying the layer using ctrl+J and the making a Gaussian blur effect. Change the opacity of the image and the blur radius until you get something you like. The whole point is to make you stand out and to do this you must change the saturation to your own liking , and that is it.

Afterwards make a new layer and change the blending mode color.  Then make a new layer and use a new color then color the upper eyelid and paint a new color.
