Blogg Design (NEW)
Two weeks ago I made a new design for my blog. I changed the header, and the font. For the header I spent 6 hours taking pictures, setting upp lighting, and piecing it all together using photoshop and paint.
First, I chose clothing and put on "stage make up" so that the camera would capture it the way I wanted. After this was finished I was ready to take pictures! Or so I thought. I found a white wall in my room which I could use as a background and tilted my light towards me to avoid shadows from the side. This caused a problem since I had a shadow from the other side. SO, I found a lamp that I could attach to the other side to avoid all shadows. I couldn´t completely avoid shadows but it was better that nothing. This whole process took about 1 hour.
After taking about 150 pictures I was ready to open the computer and start the hard work. I sorted through the pictures and chose 3 that I wanted to use. I used photoshop and effects of photoshop to make the pictures look the way I wanted them to. I then used paint to place the pictures on a single-colored background the way I wanted them. The I took the new picture and used photoshop to place the text and make some finishing touches before it was finished.
