Experimenting with Photoshop.

Here I've taken the same image as before and restored the colour in the guitar and slightly in the ring as well. I really like this, it focuses on the colour of the guitar, it balances out with the black and white aspect of the photo and it looks really neat. On all of the pictures you can see the flash shadow which appeared when I took the photo. I need to work on removing the flash from the picture to make it look more professional and a lot more neater.

Experimenting with Photosho

 

I really like this photo in particular especially in black and white. The guitar is originally red but it looks a lot more sleek in black. Here I've restored the colour in the flesh of the model. I think it looks really neat and edgy and the focus isn't just on the guitar or the model it's on both.

Experimenting with Photoshop.

I've taken this shot which is also a possible for the front of my magazine and restored the colour of the pink on the t-shirt and the red on the guitar. I think it's really nice and simple and creates emphasis to the colour and to the black and white aspect of the photo.

Experimenting with Photoshop.

I'm experimenting with black and white photos and a range of pictures that will possibly be on the front cover of my magazine. I want to show that I can create the black and white photo but do something different to the picture which allows people to see my ability to use photoshop. Here I've taken the picture and made a certain part in colour. This isn't the colour of the t-shirt it's just an experiment of what it would look like in different colours. At first I liked it but now the pink and red look too striking for the photo so I won't be using something like this when I do my final for my magazine.

Magazine Name.

After some feedback some people have suggested 'Blacklight' doesn't make them think of music that much let alone rock music. I've therefore decided to change my name to 'Blackbeat' which was one of the previous ideas I had. I liked the idea but didn't know if it was really original but some people suggested it had more of a connection than 'Blacklight' therefore I have changed the name of my magazine for 'Blackbeat'.
