Blur out faces
This image is the original image to the image below. As you can see I have used the black and white film tool to get the background colour. Also to create a blurred face I did this using the blurred re touch tool and dragged my mouse across the face to create this effect.
The thing that went well was the blurring out of the face I feel it looks effective and has a real touch to the image. To improve I probably could have blurred the neck a bit so it stands out more. I could use these techniques in my campaign photography work by blurring halve the face to show what drugs do to you as they make you see things differently. To get a higher grade I could have possibly chose an image with a small depth of field.
Text to face
This is the original image from the image below. As you can see I have used the black and white film to make the background dark. Then I have used the text tool to add the text to the face of my image. All of the words link to my drugs campaign. I have changed the colour of the text so it looks more affective. In addition the text is at different angles and I have used different fonts.
The thing that went well was the thinking of the campaign word to put on the face. To improve I could of positioned the words more evenly so it doesn't really look like I just put words on a face. I could use this in my campaign photography as I could write words on the face to represent how people feel when you cheat on them. To get a higher grade I could use more fonts and position the words better.
Double exposure
These images are the two images I used to create this. I duplicated the portrait and pasted it on to the landscape image. Then I used the screen effect to create the final piece. I think that this looks a lot better than the other effects did because it makes the portrait look like it is part of the original image.
The thing that went is that the image of the person goes very well with the image of the background. To improve I could of chose a different effect so the person stood out more than it does now. I could have used this in my campaign photography as I could of took an image of someone with a beer mat on and got a background image of a prison so it looks like they are in prison. This will be to represent animal cruelty. To get a higher grade I could of used a different effect so the woman stands out.
