Having A Go

The first thing I want to try is texturing, looking at some of the tutorials in my previous post I have had an idea to use a texture of some leaves or moss and try to texture it around the arm of a class mate, a photograph I took earlier in the week.

I’m not particularly pleased with the outcome, but it was an attempt and I’m learning. I had to cut the arm out of the background which was hard due to the background being dark, the lighting was very average for this shoot. After cutting out the image I created a layer mask and changed it black and white. After doing so, it was easier to apply the textures to the layer mask. The right technical skills were there, I just need to practice.

Ideas For Subjects

I jotted down a few ideas for some subjects to cover in my FMP. I had one idea where I would photograph a grenade that I have and photograph an apple core and try to merge the texture of the grenade to the apple core to signify war in third world countries. Just an idea though.
