4 freaky images. Photography

 In photography we were given the task of taking 4 freakish pictures based on a photo and had to use equipment such as the cameras provided, red heads and had to set the white balance in the settings etc.

in this photo i got my friend Simeon to stand by a red board and pose in that certain way with a kind of creep-ish smile then i put it in Photoshop and used effects to impact it in certain way like i used the pen tool to cut around him and added a black picture as the background and changed the colour to grey, however i put the yellow bar up a little more than the others as i wanted his skin to be quite light but didn't want his arms as light so i used the burn tool to darken his arms and keep his face slightly lighter. I also used lots of other effects like playing around with the curves and deepening and and lightening certain parts and adding shadows to certain parts etc. I couldn't figure out how to do a scar so I used the smudge tool and i think it came off quite decent.
 In this picture i took 2 photos: one of him standing there by himself and the other him with his hands how you see in the picture here to your left. I literally just used the clone stamp tool to create his eyes and mouth and the burn tool around those parts. I then cut around him using the pen tool and put a black image as the background and selected certain lighting to make his face stand more out.
 For the 3rd  picture you see here i took a picture of a girls eye but couldn't quite get it right as it was blurry so the camera had to be set the mode with the flower on it and it took a very good extreme close close up of the eye but then i had to go to the top of the spiral staircase and take a photo of it going all the way down where i then put both the images into Photoshop, cut the eye out, put the stairs layer behind the girl layer and size it to fit nicely behind the eye where i then set both of them to grey-scale and played around with the curves tool for more effect.
The 4th and final picture you see is quite simple as i just took a photo of someones hands and used the pen tool and the rubber tool to get rid of all the unnecessary things i didn't need and put a black background behind it.









 Here I've uploaded all the example pictures for you to compare and on some of them i put my own little twist. Enjoy!
