Editing of postcard

Below is a list of what we needed to change from the original image:

• The lack of colouration of the sky
• The slight over exposure of the sky
• The slight under exposure of the subject

Firstly we imported the image into photoshop after creating the size template of 8 inches by 12 inches, this is because i researched the usual size of a film festival postcard. We then had to decide on how we would edit the image. We wanted to enhance the sunset to promote the theme of following your dream by making the sunset magical. We did this by enhancing the colours and adding conventional colours that portray this theme such as purple. We also decreased the exposure to make the sunset more prominent it also allowed us to follow our original design of the silhouette.

The colour gradient we selected was purple and orange. This is because of the colours of the sunset, it made the vibrancy stand out more and look more exciting.
