The final piece

1
Through and Through I merged two pictures into
one. I first took the picture of the arch
doorway showing the grave yard and I cropped the
right hand side to make the picture more
symmetrical. I then cut image of the gas masked
model out the second photograph and tested it
against the first. I found it was too big for
the first photograph so I edited the first
photograph by copying a section of the archway
wall and the road. I repeated this until it was
big enough so it would fit the second picture. I
then used the blending tool to make the road
looked like it had not be copied. I then added
the model which had been cut out then i feathered
the edges so it didnt look like it had been cut
out. I then change the brightness of the picture
of the model blend into the picture to make it
look more scary. I then added the title name and
the authors name from the DaFont website which
I then changed the title name to red and grey
also the authors name In white.

Through and ThroughI started off by cropping the
picture. I then used the clone tool to take off
all the light part in the sky. I then replaced
it with some brick in the right hand corner. I
then chose a part of the arch to highlight, I
then changed the contrast with it and coloured in
satin in the blending option. I then used the
magic wand to get the image of the model, which I
then shrank, I then place the smaller image in
the background. I then feathered the edges, then
I faded out the image to make it ghost like. I
then added the authors name from name and book
title from DaFont where I chose themes from
there I picked gothic and from there I used Perry
gothic. I then coloured the title in red and
grey. I placed the title at the top and the
authors name at the bottom.

Final edited piece
Through and Through I started off by getting two
photographs. The first was a model with a tree
in the background whilst the other one was the
picture of the tree. I then cut out the tree
from the picture with just the tree in it. I
placed the said tree into the photograph with the
model in it. I then used the clone stamp to copy
the surrounding areas to make the second
photograph blend in with the first photograph. I
then copied apart of a patch of scrubland and
added this to the picture then blended it in. I
then changed the contrast of the picture to make
the picture look darker. This was followed up by
adding the authors name by using DaFont from the
Gothic menu then colouring it white. I then used
the Gothic medieval font, Perry Gothic again for
the title of the book.

The Ancient Stone I began by cropping the
photograph from the right hand side. I then used
the inner shadow within the blending options to
get the red sky. I selected the model, then I
cut the model out and put him on another layer.
I followed this up by putting an outer glow
around the model using the outer glow tool under
the blending options. I finished this off by
putting in the authors name using DaFont site.
I picked the gothic text for both Adding red to
the book title and white to the authors name.

The Ancient stone For this book cover I took the
picture of the model who was walking like the
ghost in the priory lower croft. I put it on the
back of a black background. I had to change the
lighting and the contrast to get the right effect
of the light as the model walks towards the
doorway. I then chose the elliptical tool so I
could get a fisheye lens effect to overlay the
photograph to make the picture stand out, I then
feathered the edges to soften the picture. I
finish the book cover off by adding a title from
DaFont. I chose the colour red as this seemed
more appropriate for a horror title then I added
the authors name in white.
