You should have finished your crayons edit from Monday and handed it into the Computers 8L 2016-2017 folder (instructions on how to hand in are linked in the left sidebar of my blog). Some of you were asking last class if you could choose your own photo to edit with the selective colouring technique. Today, the answer is yes!
Your assignment is to find a high quality colour image from Google (based on the search criteria that I outlined in class today). Make sure you click to expand the image before you save it, otherwise you risk saving a thumbnail image that will be very low resolution/low quality. Upload your photo to www.ribbet.com and follow the same steps that we used to selectively colour the crayons photo on Monday. Take special care to ensure that no extra "outside the lines" colour shows up around the piece(s) to which you've chosen to restore colour. You may need to use a smaller brush size and utilize the zoom feature in the bottom right corner of your edit box. When it is neat and tidy and you are happy with your work, save your completed image with your last name, first initial and a description of the content of the photo (ie. Lohneis, L colour woman).

| I edited this photo as an example. I chose to colour back the original colour of the woman, and I added the Cairo filter to the finish product. Check out how different McKenna's edit of the same photo looks! |

| She kept the background true black and white, and coloured back only the pink tones. Effective! |
When you are finished this assignment, please use your time to complete extra edits using the same technique. The more you have in your portfolio, the better!
Happy editing!
