Buster Keaton

My task was to create a newspaper page about buster keaton using indesign c5 which has alot of useful tools on it to help design the page. To begin with i created a frame to produce the page in. then pasted a picture of buster keaton onto the page and used the pen tool to select all around the edge of his body.

 
 this screen print is just after i had selected around his body using the pen tool and i have just placed the image back inside the frame of his body and im now placing it to fit with the outline of his body.
 this print screen was taken just after i had inserted the text and used the text wrap tool so that the text goes around the image.
This screen print was taken just after i had copied the image and deleted the inside image so i just have the outline remaining to insert text into after this all i had to do is add titles and chnage some of the font sizes.
This is the finished newspaper page.

Digital Graphics - Animal Faces

What i did - I started off by taking a picture of my friend and uploading onto the computer then opening it in photoshop. Then i used the internet to find a picture of an animal of my
choice when i had found one i opened that on photoshop as well then i
took features from my friends face and put them onto the animal face.

 








How i did it - I done most of this by using the lasso tool on photoshop and selecting around some of the features of his face and pasting them onto the animal face then scale them up or down to fit and erase bits so they fit in better.

What i thought of my results - I think the end result looked good as the eyes blend in really well and the lips made the photo alot more cartoon like and interesting but i would of liked to try and put more features of the human face on the animal but i didnt feel that any more would fit in that well.
