Julian Opie , Photoshop - Jordan Crosby

We were asked to mimic the effect which was used on Blurs Greatest Hits Album in which it displayed a picture of each band member in a cartoon style way.

To start of working on this effect i had to start with a photo of me which I then had to build up on using Adobe Photoshop.

The Tools I Used With In Photoshop -

• Crop - 
• Fill - used to fill a space with a color
• Paint Brush - Used to paint a color on to the image 
• Layers - helped keep the image organized 
• Magnetic Lasso - made selecting areas a lot easier
• Quick Selection Tool - was a easy but inaccurate way to make a selection 
• Pencil Tool - Used to add the eye's
• Stroke - Allow you to add a outline

All these tools allowed me to created this effect very fast and very simple.

I started adding layers and features on top of each other to add the effect and then would hide certain layers to reveal the image
