First Poster draft
After a good photo-shoot with Faith and our protagonist, i started editing the photos of our main protagonist, and after a lot of hardwork using the paint.net tool i found online, i was able to effectively editall of the poster, giving it a professional feel towards it.


As i began using new software to edit our photos, I struggled with using Paint.net majorly as i had never used a photo editing tool before. I didn't know how to use any of the tools at the start, and what layers were or how to use them. After realsing that i would not be able to make a professional ancillary task on my own, i accessed the web 2.0 and began searching for some help.
I looked on Youtube and found a video (to the right) that helped me to grasp the basics of the editing using Paint.net. It shown me all of the tools, like the colour wheel and the layers, and what to put in each layer and how to rename them so I know what is in each layer, and how to use them effectively to get maximum benefits. For example, I was shown how to use the blur tool, and this worked brilliantly for my background. It also shown me how to highlight certain points in the poster, bringing out the characters face and the missing poster, for example.
I was also shown the blur tool whilst using letters, and i created a fading lettering around the title "Missing". The red blur helped to make the title stand out against the background a lot more, contrasting between the bright red title and the dark dim background. I was also shown how to select certain parts of the poster to change the saturation and hue of colour. I made the poster in my protagonists hand high in contrast and saturation to draw the audiences attention towards it as i wanted to emphasise the missing person on the poster, so the audience can recognise the character on both the poster and the missing poster inside the poster created.
