Ted Talk: Britney Spears on "How to Go Bald"



This one was pretty fun. I'm not sure how the idea came to me, but I knew it was perfect.

1. I downloaded the Ted talk template from here (scroll to the bottom of the post), and opened it.

2. I found all the images that I wanted from the Internet, downloaded them, and opened them into Photoshop.

3. I used the magnetic lasso tool to select the parts of the images that I wanted, then I copied and pasted them into the Ted template.

4. I used transform (control+T) to resize and move them to where I wanted.

5. Next I used the rectangle tool to draw out the plus and equals signs.

6. Finally, I used the rectangle tool to draw the blue background. I used the paintbucket tool to make it blue. Then I used transform again to maneuver the rectangle into position.

And it's done!

Minimalist Poster - Jack Rabbit Slim's from Pulp Fiction


My process:

1. I found an image from the Internet with the text and logo, so I downloaded it and then imported it into Photoshop.

2. I used the magnetic lasso tool first to draw out the rabbit, then I created a new project and made the poster dimensions 5" x 7" (because the images were already small). I copied the rabbit and pasted it into this new project.

3. Next I used the quick selection tool to select the text (it also selected some parts of the image I didn't want), and copied and pasted the text into the new project as well. I then used the magic wand tool to select the extra parts that I didn't want and deleted them until I was left with just the text.

4. Finally, I clicked on the background layer and used the paintbucket tool to fill in the purple color.
