Photo editing and text manipulation, photoshop (GIMP) tutorial by Dom Bower
February 27th, 2010
www.dombower.com In this video i show you how i edited a photo of a model for a male modeling agency in the UK called Chocolate Velvet. I show you how I originally cropped the photo in Adobe lightroom and edited the exposure and contrast and saturations and adding vignette. then i show you how i edited the image in the free version of photoshop called Gimp. Gimp is a free photo/ image editing programme just like adobe photoshop here i show you how i manipulated the text adding drop shadows and blur to text then using the perspective tool to make it seem in the correct place. Photo by dom bower model; Paulo, agency; Chocolate velvet hope this helps kind regards Dom Bower
