Check Off/Wrap up Portraiture and One more Portrait Editing Project

Project 3:  In class editing, Re-Writing History

For your next project you will be editing an existing photograph and placing yourself into the existing shot.  You will need to find a famous or recognizable shot on Google Images (Photo-Journalism, Movie Poster, Book Cover, Screen Shot, Magazine Cover, etc.) and place yourself into it.  You must place at least your face, but you can use your entire body.  Your grade for this project will be based on the quality of your editing not on your ideas (though cleverness does indeed count).  This is a chance for you to show me your Photoshopping skills.

Start by looking for the image you want to use.  Strategize - If it's your face you're inserting, you want an image that has the same direction and hopefully lighting as your image...  Any image source of your face will work, (personal hotos, social media, etc.) just remember that quality counts - If it's a bad image to begin with, it will probably still be a bad image, though there are plenty of things we can do to work around that and/or fix it.

Good luck...
