The ask
Select a portrait image of someone and manipulate the image in three distinct ways in Adobe Photoshop. One of my favorite music artists is Billie Eilish, so I chose to use her image.
How did I do it?
To complete this project, I scoured YouTube to find photo manipulation effects that I found interesting and would like to replicate. I decided on a crumpled paper effect, xerox copy effect, and money effect. I watched these videos multiple times to understand the instructions and referred back to them when I missed a step. I even changed some steps when I felt they didn't fit my personal aesthetics.
Crumpled Paper Effect
the skills
To achieve these effects, an extensive knowledge of Photoshop is required. With it, I was comfortable following the instructions, and when I was not pleased with something, I was able to venture off on my own to achieve the look I wanted.
Xerox Copy Effect
Key takeaway
Photoshop is a powerful tool, and this project reflected how far I have come as a creative. Quality work takes time, and I will always be committed to achieving that.
