Experimenting with editing.


Here, I have attempted to manipulate my cover image in a similar way to how 'WONDERLAND' magazine have edited their image of Dizzee Rascal on the cover. I felt that, by doing this, I could possibly increase the credibility of a music magazine as well as trying out the editing technique.
Firstly, I adjusted the lighting curves of the image as I had already edited the image previously for my cover, before increasing the saturation almost completely.
I then selected part of the jacket and went into Image, Adjustments, Invert, to give a negative effect of the image, much like WONDERLAND magazine have done on the hooded jacket that Dizzee Rascal is wearing.
I feel that my version of the technique worked well and I like the almost steel-like effect of the artists skin, although I also feel that this could be considered too hip-hop, hence Dizzee Rascal on the cover, with the same editing.
