PRACTICAL

This week's task is for us to continue the previous work (week 3 final design) and make some adjustments to the collage using Photoshop.

Fig 1 Before (left) and after (right) adjustment (23/10//2024)

I didn't have many changes to the collage because I really liked the colors it came out with, so I just played around with hue/saturation, brightness/contrast, vibrance, and a little black and white value (I only used it on the old projector).

I felt like the background was overwhelming the objects a bit, so I reduced the color, and increased the vibrance of the objects to make them stand out.

I learned how to use adjustment layers and play around to create balanced compositions, and now I know how to use clipping masks and how to readjust objects faster because now I can only focus on one thing.
