-i used the blur tool to blur the skin because alot of the edges are Sharpe and so now i have blended it into the picture.

-i used the robber too to make the original picture come through so it look like my real picture.

-i used the flip tool to get the face i wanted to insert was not the right way, this then made the effect look more realistic.

-i used the text tool to make the name of my band stand out, i used pink for the love heart to make it more colourful and to make it stand out.

This is the colour depth options I choose the default option although it is simple it has the best effect for the picture other options distorted the picture and effected the overall picture quality. Although a slight change in colour maybe would have looked better i felt the option i chose offered the best picture quality. It also has a good download speed which is very important on websites as if it takes to long then it will be ineffective on a website. It also has a good colour resolution. It also depends what you are using the photograph for if i where to have used it for a black and white book then there would be no point having fantastic colour resolution and on a website it is important to have both good download speed and good colour resolution.




unit 35 p5

courtney said to me that on my poster it didnt look good and proper because it had the names wrote just anywhere along the page, so i have edited my work and removed names.

Unit 35 p6

Intellectual property is divided into two categories:  Industrial property, which includes inventions (patents), trademarks, industrial designs, and geographic indications of source but the copy right law involves novels, books etc. Also it is a legal concept; it is enforced by most governments. It gives the creator of the original piece of work exclusive rights. It is normally only for a limited of time. The copy right law also enables protection over work. Having rights over your work means that people cannot copy your piece and use it. The length of copyright protection may vary from country to country, but it usually lasts for the life of the author plus 50 to 100 years. For example if i used someones album cover on my website it would be against the law.

And get blazingly fast performance with the Mercury Graphics Engine.the only problem with this software is that you nee a very fast computer to run it and the costing goes up every year so it will be come expensive to run.
