A Whole New World (floating mountains project)

This project was called the floating mountain. Pretty self explanatory, right? The concept was to use the quick selection tool as well as getting rid of pixel fringe. We also were to give the illusion that the mountain was somewhat in the clouds. This was pretty tricky and involved moving a couple layers around and selecting only certain parts of the cloud. Not only did we have to put a mountain in the middle of the sky but we also needed to erase the previous name and add our own. In order to do that I needed to use the eyedropper tool to select parts of the sky and clouds to make it just look like more sky and clouds rather than words. Then I had added a text box to type my own name. I called it 'A Whole New World' because I thought it suited a mountain in the sky well because that is completely not real. Making it, a whole new world. There were also changes made such as contrast and color dillusion. But that is the main idea of the whole project and I learned how to use lots of different tools. My favorite being the quick selection tool!
