Photoshopping Image. http://opiniondemymy.blogspot.co.uk/2011/08/photoshop-jessica-alba-avantapres.html


Photo shopping image.
This was a shoot that was done with Jessica Alba. The left hand image is the original and the image on the right is the one that has been photo shopped. The original has been airbrushed, had colour changes and they have slimmed down her figure and taken the creases out from her groin area. The other thing I have noticed is that in the original she is looking to the right, but in the photo shopped version she is starring directly into the camera. They have also defined her breasts and cleavage. They have defined all of her bones, including her collar, neck and shoulder. They have taken away the muscle on her right leg, to give her a slimmer, sleeker, more defined figure. 

Through out the whole fashion industry, all of the images we find in magazines, blogs, newspapers and throughout the Internet. All young girls are now seeing fashion models and celebrities as tall, slim, perfect skin, long, shiny, sleek hair. It is showing young girls, that we should all look the same, and that we need to wear lots of make up, and wear skin tight clothes, and have to be a size 8/10. That it is also not the done ting to be a curvatious girl. I personally think it is wrong as I believe we are all our own person. NO ONE IS PERFECT!

Playing around in Photoshop



I created this on Photoshop using the brush tool. I used different effects including water colour, ink, and normal paint. I created this by using an image. and using the effects to re-create this image. This image is on my blog under the name, 'Water Colour, Fashion Illustration'.

Marguerite Sauvage, Animated Fashion Illustration

The use of animals and fashion together, with the use of different generations. The way she has created this image through animation I love, as it is far from the conventional way of illustrating clothing. I also like the use of different generations that she has used as it shows variation. The use of vibrant colours also works very well because they are what I would associate with 'safari' colours, which inter winds with the animal heads.

Water Colour, Fashion Illustration

I love this way of illustrating fashion, because it isn’t just the normal way, of a template figure, with the outfit illustrated on to it, it is making the figure, outfit and all of the other components together in one image. I also love the use of the water colours as it gives it a feeling of freedom, originality and tranquillity. This is because the colours flow into one another creating curved lines and organic shapes with a balance between the colours. 

The red, purples, oranges and browns mixing together and flowing down into greys and blacks. The yellows, blues and blacks all mixing together. The colours are all complimentary of each other.
