Photoshop allows for many changes to be made from the original studio pictures to the final product such as a film poster and a magazine which i have created for the purpose of accompanying my film trailer.
For my film poster, the pictures where shot on location. Therefore access to professional studio lighting was not available. Due to this I was able to make changes in photoshop to enhance the quality, lighting and essentially airbrush over the entire picture to smoothen out the appearance of the picture to get rid of graininess. Below shows the changes from the original picture to the photoshop finish of the picture after playing around with the contrast, saturation and brightness tools as well as the blur tool for that overall airbrushed look.
In contrast to the lack of studio equipment in the film poster shoot, in the magazine shoot this was taken in the studio so lightning equipment etc was all accessible to me. Even though I had all of this equipment I still needed to make final touches in photoshop to perfect the image. For example I used the brightness tool on the female face to bring more light to her face in order to draw the audiences attention to her facial expression and really feel a connection to her. I also played around with the blur tool to smooth out the models apperance as well as the saturation, contrast and exposure tools. Below is the original photograph and the finalised photoshop finishes.
