I started by opening a new file in photoshop, here i selected the picture size. First i selected film and video and then PAL DV1.
By selecting this photo size this gave me grid lines and now i know where on the screen is visible on widescreen and earlier TV's.
Next i opened my files on my hard drive in a separate window and dragged and dropped the image onto the Photoshop frame. This saved time.
After I imported the image i found that it was the wrong size. To combat this i held CTRL and T this allowed me to transform the image size to fit the page well.
On one of the images a door pull is needed but was not available during the image taking. So i found an image of a door pull on a free to use image site. Here i copy and pasted the image and using the magic wand tool.
Here i needed to place the handle within the hand, to do so i used the layer system and used the eraser tool to put the pull in the hand.
On all images i made the images into black and white and by doing so adds to the German Expressionism-esc. A key part of German Expressionism is that silhouettes are frequent. to do this i added a new layer and drew in black of the two shadows. i went over some of the bodies and used the eraser tool to edit that.
The shadows were too dark and so i changed the opacity to give the illusion that they are real.
