This is the first photoshop task in my AS Media class. Ihave used a different program called Paint.net before at home but have never really used photoshop before, this computer was also an Apple Mac instead of a PC so a bit of a learning curve there. However, I think that I got to grips with the changes rather quickly and did well with the Macs.
What I Did I first opened the PSD files of three pictures: a CD, a Horn and a Background of music notes. I had to remove the background from The CD using the quick selection tool and pressing backspace to remove it and then used the pointer to move the picture onto the background picture of music notes. Next, to remove the background from the horn, I used colour range by clicking on the layer I needed and clicking select then finding colour range in the drop down menu before eliminating the colour white (the colour of the background) and removing the fuzziness. This then meant that the whole of the white background was selected and I could press backspace without deleting the horn as well as the background. I then also moved that picture onto the music notes background. I then resized the images so that they would fit nicely onto the background and look okay. To do this, I selected the layer I wanted to resize and selected edit, then from the drop down menu I selected Free Transform which meant I could resize the layers freely. I did this until I was happy with the result and then added text of a font that fitted the theme of the album cover. Finally, I edited the texture of the CD and brought the music notes layer forward. After I had done this, I merged the layers down and saved it and I was finished. Here is the project:
