Selections Quiz

You will have until the end of class to manipulate the following images, selecting the main emphasis in each photograph with any of the Selection tools that we've learned about in class thus far.  These tools would include, the Marquee Tools, the Lasso Tools, the Magic Wand, or the Quick Selection tool.

With each of the 5 following images you will need to ACCURATELY select the object (or subject) of emphasis WITHOUT ANY FRINGE, create a new layer copy,  and then digitally manipulate it in some way.  You are free to manipulate either the emphasis, the background, or both.

There must be a clear contrast between the emphasis in each photo, and the background. (Example, do not manipulate both layers with the same digital Image Adjustment, or Filter.)  Otherwise, you are free to choose whichever Image Adjustment or Filter in Photoshop that you think would look best.

When you are finished, put all 5 photos onto a contact sheet in Photoshop. Save it as a JPEG and use your naming convention and _selectionsquiz

Log onto the Staff server and put this document into "Classes", "Period 3".

IF YOU FINISH EARLY, GO BACK AND SWEAT THE DETAILS AND MAKE EACH DIGITAL MANIPULATION LOOK AS GOOD AS IT CAN, OR CREATE A COPY USING 'FILE', 'SAVE AS', AND TWEAK YOUR LAYERS WITH OTHER FILTERS OR ADJUSTMENTS!!! USE THE TIME YOU ARE GIVEN TO MAKE YOUR DIGITALLY MANIPULATED PHOTOS LOOK AS CREATIVELY MANIPULATED AS YOU CAN. (THINK ABOUT HOW ANY OF THE ELEMENTS AND PRINCIPLES OF DESIGN COULD BE USED TO ENHANCE THESE PHOTOS.)

Create a folder on your Desktop.  Call this folder "Original Quiz Photos".  Drag and drop the photos below into that folder.

Before you create your contact sheet, you will need to save the photos you've manipulated into a folder called "Manipulated Quiz Photos"

Here are your 5 photos:
