This one's simple. Strap on some nerf guns, sunglasses, and stretchy plastic skirts. Then go pose by a wall. Your mom, another friend, or a camera stand can help you get some dramatic full-body shots. The main goal? Look like the people on action movie posters. You are out there to save the world, save yourself, or save some obscure object, and you're gonna do it well.
Step #2 is a bit more tricky. Photoshop. If you don't know how to upload your photos onto the computer, photoshop will be particularly hard. Once you're there, here are some tips:
"Enhance"
This will be the tab at the very top of the screen. Click, navigate down to "adjust lighting." Select "Brightness/Contrast" from the pull-down menu. This will allow you to brighten your image.
"T"
The green T on the lower-ish left hand side of the screen will allow you to add text. By selecting it, there will be setting options at the bottom of the screen. You can change the color, size, or style of the text.
Layers
These will be stacked up in little rectangular boxes along the right hand side of the screen. Drag the boxes before or after each other, allowing multiple layers of text to align in different ways. See the top photo as an example.
Then just fool around with shapes. Have fun!
Here's the deal. I have a comment for every post. But I want to TALK ABOUT IT ALL, which is not what one should do at length in the comments section. I am loving the new blog, the mixed media, and I have a story about Carrie Brownstein for you. Everything I'm reading has me standing up and applauding. Anyway, in short, we will discuss in Bend in 37 days.
