18th March 2014 - DPS

Before placing my photos into my DPS, I edited them all in photoshop by adjusting the colour, tone and contrast as well as sharpening them using the unsharp mask tool. I have put them as polaroid pictures and to bring them to life, I made part of the picture pop out of the frames. To do this, I cut around the part of the image I wanted to be outside the frame using the lasso tool.
On the image below the word 'AND' in the masthead, the models hand is both over the frame and over the image in front. To do this I had to cut the hand out and save it, then placed it where it needed to go in InDesign. I also added drop shadows to the images.

Because of the black that the model is wearing, I think that this looked like the most dominant colour so my header looked lost in the page, therefore I changed the colour of the box behind my header to black as well as my breakout box.
