1.8 Flying Ninjas

target
Objective

Learn the tools of photo manipulation and create a photo composition.

Create a simple photo composition using the photos provided.

All edits should be “invisible.” Viewers should not be able to easily tell where edits were made (except for the creative brushes).

Extract the files from the zipped file below. Open the .CR2 RAW files with Photoshop. Open the .abr files when you need to paint grass or wings.
Use Camera RAW to edit the photos (.CR2 files) so they are properly exposed and have bright color.
Carefully select, mask, and move elements of the photos to make a new photo composition. Make sure to end up with the following:
  • A large blue sky above a flat grassy horizon and no hills or trees.
  • Flying ninjas with graphical wings.
  • Believable shadows beneath the ninjas.
Photoshop: click on File > Export > Export As and select the JPG format.
Upload your photo into a gallery block on your WordPress.com website. Describe the objective of the project and how you approached it.
