Dear Moderator,

Welcome to my A2 Media blog in which I show the stages I have been through in order to create my main product, a thriller film trailer titled "Eye Spy" along with two ancillary tasks, an "Eye Spy" film poster and a magazine front cover called "Uncut" which features my film trailer. You'll find all of these completed products directly below. My Research & Planning posts start in September and my Evaluation begins on March 11th.

I hope you enjoy,

Luke

Research & Planning: Changing My Model's Skin Tone

 First I cleared the image the best I could so that I had a clear area to work with.  I couldn't remove the scratch or black eye because I've merged the three layers together to prevent them from moving out of alignment.


 I then began to add a really pale blue colour to the skin with the brush tool.  I made sure to add more layers to my models lips because they were really red on the initial image and therefore projected the wrong feel.  I then use the eraser tool to tidy up the edges and uncover his eyes.

So that I could apply these colour successfully to the skin, I changed the blending mode from "normal" to "overlay" so that it fused with the layer underneath.

Here is the image with the paler skin tone, I feel that this has linked my image to my trailer and projected a stronger, thriller theme.
