Clipping Assignment
Also, copy and pasting an image into another image will need to be done. Remember to use the Rectangle Marquee tool to click and drag over what you want to copy.
Then Edit > Copy, click on the image you want to paste this into, and click Edit > Paste.
- Finally, remember Layers! You can only work on the Layer that is selected or clicked on.
- Bonus: try Image > Adjustments and experiment with making your images look similar.
Ok, here is your assignment! You are to make 3 different "photoshopped" images...
1. Photoshop yourself in a historical event
(aka I was there!)
This should be an event that you realistically could not have been at (in other words, before you were born!
2. Photoshop yourself as someone else
(Singing in front of a sold out crowd, dribbling on a break away dunk, etc...
3. Photoshop something else in a picture
(Shark in the pool from your family vacation picture, T-rex in Times Square, etc...)
