4 primary images i took and one merged

i liked the setup for this because it has depth because i have placed the tanks in the background. i also like how ive set up the props putting them together creating a scene 

this was a terrible shot it was out of focus, small and also not centered. also i captured the whole shadow on the left which certainly if i would do this again i would make sure that i would check or these basic errors but for this one i didn't because i wasn't the one taking the shot but if i was i would have took more care into this shot. 

 This one as you see is alot better than the previous one because its in focus but yet again annoyingly i have the shadow still in the corner which has mostly ruined a lot of my shots. the placement is better than the last because you can see the extra little detail in the shot. 

i had trouble with merging the two images because i had such little time. but you can probably see on the right i have added another tank but edited the curves and levels of the tank but i didn't like this project because i was confused with the two projects i was doing colliding together.  Also what i would have done with more time is crop off the triangle in the corner of my picture. Its annoys me because i couldnt do this to the best of my ability.

i was able to easily create these from pasting and changing the opacity and also the hue and saturation.


Here is one i did myself with a camera by changing the shutter speed so the figure looks more blurred and ghostly.

How did i create my logo?

Well from the images above i was able to create this by adding and re sizing the images and also using the invert tool in the "Image" Then "Adjustments" to swap the colors around such as black an white to white to black. I then went for a stylish text to set a professional standard onto the logo. also to get rid off the background i simply just used the magic eraser tool. The reason my image isnt large is because once this is printed on A4 my image will be larger then needed too.

What we had to do today was get everything ready for the next day for when we are going to shooting for our advert. We had completed everything form the proposal and printing out the images and creating a logo for our advert. So we as a team set to it and we decided we would have our suit and horse mask set in different location before the actor would turn around in an unusual way while having a drastic change in music from jazz to a dramatic build up. The ending will be set on a minor note making a high pitched surprising noise to finish of our advert. Then we would use the JPEG image that i made as a promotion featuring 60% off.

Here is the image below.



I found this very easy to accomplish as i have had experience before with Photoshop so i was very confident and familiar with the tools to create a quick promotional piece that we would use towards the end. 
We also decided that our advert is going to be dramatic and also have a funny twist towards the end with the actor turning his head fast with a surprised look.

Evaluation

What was successful about my design?
I think the best part about my design is that i have been able to make it look professional and also make it look to stand out. i have created this by using bold colors in the middle splitting between a dark and light faded area bringing your attention to the center.

Also what i did to make it more attractive is i changed the color of the 60% OFF to make it stand out as sales always attract a customers eye for example in shop windows where they would have a huge banner with the word sale on it with a bright red background.

What could i improve on?

I could have used my own media for example using my own images of me in a horsemask. I decided to take it even further and place my advert on a billboard.


How did i achieve this?
It pretty simple and quick. Firstly i erased the background of the original billboard then i placed my image onto this one. Then to make my image fit the billboard i then simply held CTRL+T  then click and held on of the corners then just held CTRL so i could skew my image onto the billboard so it didn't loose shape. But then i noticed the my image was too bright for the background. So i selected image then changed the hue /saturation and lowered the contrast and brightness of my image to make it look more realistic. I then went further and added a grunge effect and then edited the opacity so it was visible but also transparent.

What did I do today?

Firstly we was shown and introduced to a red light which would give us light to help us with our photos and give them light in the areas we needed encase it was dark.

We then got 6 props and then we would go off and take a pictures of them under the red light. Then we would then take these images and put them onto Photoshop and edit the contrast and brightness. We achieved this by editing the curves and the levels to make our image have more brightness.

 
this is a before and after pic the one above is not edited and the one below has been cropped and also has had it s curves and levels edited.

My final outcome
I found this very easy and simple and i was able to create this image from a series of already generated images from the internet.

all it took was few tools to create this:
I used the magic wand tool to erase the background off of my images i had taken and then placed them onto the main piece.

simply using CTRL + T i was able to arrange the images to the size and rotation i wanted to help suit this piece the best.

some images where an off color to what i wanted but easily i used the hue/saturation tool on this picture to make it silhouette looking making it as dark as i can

subversive adverts are a creation of something original but changing it into a more drastic way e.g making a company look bad by taking one of their sayings and advertising and then changing it.
so like what i have done above and what others have done below.
