Silhouette idea

The group and I decided that our CD cover is going to be Silhouette, we wanted to add a silhouette couple into our video so that the cover is relevant. To do this, we put the couple behind a green screen and a light behind them and this created two silhouette figures. To create the silhouette people on the album cover, we took pictures of Chloe and Freya in front of the green screen and had them doing various poses. Once we were pleased with the pictures, we opened them up on photoshop and used the magnetic lasso tool to outline the image. That then cuts out the image ready to be made into a silhouette. Using the rubber tool, we went around the image getting rid of any bits that did not disappear with the rest if the background. Once this is done, we used the colour over lay effect which turned the image black.

This is one of the original images of Chloe we used for the silhouette. 
This is the same image after the background has been taken out and any bits that were left behind after the background was removed. The image is now ready to be made into a silhouette.
This is the final silhouette figure of Chloe that will be used on our CD cover.
