Edit Singer or Band Photo

Watch some cool musicians (Sam, Vanessa, & Simon) play musical instruments in an Apple promotional video.

Open your full body photo of the musician or singer with their musical instrument or mic in Photoshop and quickly delete the background (does not have to be perfect) using the magic wand or quick selection tool. Use the eraser tool in addition if needed and make sure the background is transparent. Save the musician (with a transparent background) as a png file and open in AI. Create an AI document size A4 Portrait 300 dpi (see screenshot below) instead of the dimensions given in the video tutorial. Insert the JPG musician/singer photo into we took in class.

You will first prepare your musician's full body shot to see if it converts well to Illustrator. Watch the video tutorial.
