Background Change
Background Change
For this assignment, you will be using the Cutout/Mask tool to be able to change just the background in an image, using a non-destructive technique.
Open any image in Pixlr/e
Do NOT choose an image with a solid background.
Make 3 copies of the image! (4 layers total. Turn off original layer)
Top layer rename to: (Image) <-- change to appropriate description
Middle layer rename to: Background
Bottom layer rename to: Original
Use the Cutout/Mask (scissors) tool with the Draw Mask (Brush) to remove the background on your TOP layer
Change your Background Layer properties (ex. desaturate, blur, effects, etc.) TWO DIFFERENT WAYS (on the same image).
Screenshot your whole screen to turn in. Make sure I can see ALL layers! (layers toolbar)
Three files to turn in (File name):
Background 1 Last First
Background 2 Last First
Background Original Last First (Also turn in the ORIGINAL image!)
