On my second montage I used the same tools as the first one, except in this one I used the layer mask. The layer mask was fun to use and helped make the picture look better. It helped take away all the straight edges and pointy corners. I also overlapped every image to make it a collage.
The theme of this collage is the movie The Notebook. This is one of my absolute favorite movies of all. It’s one of the best love stories. The main actors are Rachel McAdams who plays Allie and Ryan Gosling plays Noah. I also included swans because in one of the scenes Noah takes Allie to a lake that was full of beautiful white swans.
On my first montage I learned how to crop images, change the lighting of an image, make an image fade into the background, and how to overlap. The tool I used the most was the cropping. I used cropping in every image to take away the background and just keep a certain part of the image that I wanted. The tool that I thought was really fun was the gradient tool. The gradient tool helped me fade an image into the background giving it a really cool effect.
The theme of my first montage was music. I have a huge passion for music so in this montage I included my favorite singers which are Lil Wayne, Kid Cudi, and Drake. It shouldn’t look really realistic so I put the images together to try to make it seem that they are rapping on the moon. These three singers have songs about the moon so I thought it fit really well. Also because it gave it a better effect to it.
