My starting point!

This is going to be my starting point for my egyotian side, I am going to edit this phto and see what I can do to make it mix in the with graffiti of new yourk and surrounding areas.

This is going to be the graffiti I am going to use for my starting point of mixing egypt with new york. I will be trying to put pictures and stuff like the Efile tower behind and on the egyptian pyramids

My idea for contrasting New York and Egypt

I am going to contrast Egypt and New York, I am going to be focusing on the graffiti in New York. My idea is to get a Egyptian pyramid an I am going to put onto photoshop and I am going to get a picture of the city of New York and I am going to put the pyramid in the front of the picture and i am going to have graffiti going up the pyramid and then I am going to have the empire state building and I am going to put loads of Egyptian writiing going up the front and the sides of the building. Also I am going to make it so I have a really sunner sky with no clouds or nothing to block off then sun.

Image of a man after editing

This is the man after I have edited him using the software photoshop. The reason he looks like this is becuase I have used loads of different filters like zig zag, which is the pattern on his shirt, I used this because it makes the picture look more interesting so its not just a plain white shirt.  I also changed the colour of the man, I did this because I thought if I changed the colour of the man then I could make the man look more cartoon and moire interesting and funny. I also changed the colour of his hair to give it that more cartoonie affect and I thought it looked good. I also used the checkered filter to make his shoes look better as i thought his shoes was a little plain before, as they was just plain black, so I thought if I used the checkered filter I would be able to make his shoes a little more interesting. there are a couple more filters but they was not that interesting it was just stuff like changing the colour of his trousers and stuff like that. The reason I have done this piece of work is because in this lesson we was trying to get to know how to use photoshop as it was one of our first lessons using the software so we edited this man so that we could see some of the things that you could do with photoshop.

I am going to now try and refine this image by adding a couple of filters.
