PhotoShop Picture

This photo is a picture of 3 Futurama characters from the cartoon. There is also the space ship from the show in the background in the sky. The other picture is the green building and yellow brick road from the Wizard of Oz movie. It looks wierd because its a cyclops, a robot and a human in space suits in a cartoon drawing with a space ship placed into a real life picture. I created it by cutting out the Futurama picture by using the polygon lasso along with the magic wand tool. I adjusted the color of the Futurama characters and the space ship. I also changed up the texture of the background by doing things like using the filter tab and selecting many different options that adjusted the picture. To get the shadows I copy and pasted the pictures of the characters and just rotated it and used the inner glow feature and make it dark so it looks like a shadow. After doing all that, I got the picture that is shown above all of this writing.

Composition:Linear Perspective and Shape

Linear Perspective is the distance from the lens of the camera to the scene relative to each other.





Shape helps people recognize an object in a picture.It also adds interest into the composition. A combination of different shapes adds variety. The reason these 2 images were chosen was because both of them have a main shape in the picture that really stands out. If you took away the main shape from this picture the picture would look real plain. There are also a few other shapes in the pictures so there is more of a variety of shapes in the picture.
