Assignment #7

This is the LAST assignment you will be submitting to me for marking.

For this assignment, you will be extracting the lady with curly hair from a picture with a white background.

The file can be found on the StudentShare: Grade10Share: Computers 10: Photoshop: Head Shot.psd

After you have extracted the lady from the background, create a new layer and use the Gradient tool to make a new background. The new background must be dark!!!!! You may need to touch up the ladies hair to get rid of any of the white background. Some tools that might be helpful in touching up: eraser (decrease the opacity), paint brush, history brush.

Required Elements:
  • Lady extracted from white background. 
  • New background. Use the Gradient Tool. Background must be dark.
  • Logbook Entry: Must include the new image you have created and an explanation on whether you used any additional tools to remove the white background from the ladies hair.
If you are having problems, come speak to me as soon as possible!

This assignment will be out of 16 and will be marked with the following rubric.
