INSTRUCTION: PART1_SHAZAM


1. Crop "Shazam" out by using quick selecting tool, after that copy and paste it into the picture which have been provided. Adjust the "Shazam" by selecting matching color, adjust the gradians to fit the "heart mansion" photo.



2. Add shadows by using paint brush, adjust their blurriness, transparency. Copy a new "shazam" and rotate the H to (-), therefore we can get a upside-down "shazam" as the reflection of the pool, adjust its brightness, gradience and remember to crop the image that beyond the pool by using pen tool, add layer on it.


3. After that, the "Shazam" is done.



PART2: MY REFLECTION

1. First, I find a wall which is white and cover the floor with a white board, to make easier cropping and selecting jobs when I do the photoshop. I adjust the lightning by placing the light on my left, cover it by using baking paper. Last but not least, make sure the phone is at eye level before taking the picture.


2. Crop it using quick selecting tool in the photoshop.


3. Place it into the picture that have given.
