TGJ2O1 Photoshop Exercise

The first thing i did was find a picture of George Clooney, I made sure that he was in a casual pose to make it easier to cut him out of his original picture. I also had to make sure that the clothes he was wearing was contrasted from the background. After opening Photoshop CS, I created a new layer as a copy. After doing that, I selected the background around Clooney to change the background colour. I chose red. After this step, I used the magnetic lasso tool to select George. I carefully traced George Clooney out making sure i got the outline of his body.
I found a picture of a Tarzan background which is random because it is a cartoon and George Clooney is a real person. He isn't even a voice for any of the characters in the movie. After doing this, i created a vector mask. There was a red outline around George Clooney so i had to get rid of it by using the airbrush tool with the colour red. It was the same shade i used to change the background colour of Clooney's original picture. I copied and pasted Clooney into the Tarzan background beside Tarzan to show both individuals. Lastly, i did some finishing touches to Clooney's body. There were still parts that were left from the other background so i had to blend those colours in with the Tarzan background. Then, I changed Clooney's brightness.
