Graphic Design

In the first few Graphic Design lectures, the rest of the group and I started using Photoshop. Photoshop is a graphics editing programme where you can manipulate images and do almost anything you want to it.

Our task in Photoshop was to make a poster advertising a surf competition in the Mounts bay area. We had two images - one of St.Michaels Mount and one of a surfer. We had to import them into Photoshop and then change the two pictures by using various techniques.

After getting used to the editing software, we began to use more advanced tools and techniques to make the picture look better.

When we finished editing, we had to answer a few questions about how we made the picture look as it did. The purpose of this was to help us remind ourselves about how to get around the things we may get stuck in, in the future.
