Guess What Happens Next?


I layered Superman on top of this picture of a women falling off a builiding so he can fly in and save the day. I had to use the magic wand to get rid of Superman's background. I moved him onto the picture and made him smaller to fit into the top left corner of the image. Then I gave him some shadow to make him more realistic in the pciture.

This picture was a little harder when it came to keeping the layers in order. When I had to use the clone stamp to get the frog to match the tongue the first time I cloned over the frog in both layers. This meant when I went to use the eraser to make the frog opaque it didn't show because the frog in the other layer showed through. I made sure the second time to only clone the frog layer and was thus able to use the eraser appropriately. The best part about the picture is the shadow, which is something I would not have thought of but is really necessary to make the picture appear real.

This was a new experience for me going more in-depth into the features of photoshop. The most interesting part for me was adjusting the shape of the pancakes to fit the mouth. I was previously unaware that it was possible to adjust the picture like that. Also, knowing the additional attributes of the eraser was very helpful. I didn't realize the eraser was more than just a white-out tool and its ability to blend the jaws into the pancakes was a new tool I learned. That new feature of the eraser will no doubt prove useful in any future photoshop work I do.
