Band Images and Photos- PhotoShop

In todays triple lesson we looked at band images and photos taken from their albums or photos that promote them. We looked at bands such as Coldplay and The Script, we also looked at solo artists such as Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber , Eminem and Usher.

We analyzed the composition of the band and the lighting within the images. we also talked about the three different lights that are used when taking pictures. (Key lighting, fill lighting and back lighting).

After looking at the images and talking about them in class, we decided to take some of our own photos. We looked at reacting how other genres had taken the images and recreated the image on their own style.

Examples of the type of pictures that we took were, Girl Band, Mixed Girl and Boy Band, Solo Artists, Rock band, Duets and Divas.

After taking these images we then learnt about Photoshop an how we can edit images to fit our genre. We learnt how to upload the image, cut it out (using the selection tool or the magic wand). We also looked at editing the images by using filters.
