ICT HW #2 - HOW TO BRIGHTEN A CERTAIN OBJECT IN THE PICTURE USING PHOTOSHOP

Before


After


Step 1 - Make the layer in the photoshop unlocked again; like the previous instructions.

Step 2 - Duplicate the layer by right-clicking, then you choose 'Duplicate Layer'.

Step 3 - Go to the layer on top, and start doing the steps in the ICT HW #1, which is below this post.

Step 4 - Choose the item you would like to brighten, and choose the 'Eraser' tool. 

Step 5 - Start erasing around the object, and because you have two layers, if you start erasing the layer on top, the one at the bottom is still there. 

Step 6 - Now your picture has a certain object brightened!

ICT HW #1 - HOW TO MAKE THE IMAGE BRIGHTER USING PHOTOSHOP

Before


After



Step 1 - Open the picture you want to edit in Photoshop. To do this, drag the selected picture into the Photoshop icon.

Step 2 - Then, go to the menu bar, and click Window, and tick the Layers.

Step 3 - Because you have the layers now, double click the lock button to make the 'Background' a layer.

Step 4 - Next, go to the menu bar again, and click 'Image', then you go to 'Adjustments'. There you will see the 'Levels'. Click that.

Step 5 - Look at the chart, and you will see that there is a white arrow, now drag that arrow to the left, to increase the picture's 'level',

Step 6 - After this, go to the menu bar, click 'Image', then 'Adjustments', but this time, go to the Brightness & Contrast. All you have to do is brighten and contrast the picture as much as you like, but if you brighten the picture, always make sure you contrast it as well.

Step 7 - Finally, go to 'Image', 'Adjustments' and then 'Shadows and Highlights'. Fondle with the shadows and highlights as much as you want, and you will see that the shadow will make the image brighten, and the highlight will show the details of the picture, but darken it a little.

Step 8 - Your image is now brightened! Now, all you have to do is save the image unto your computer!

5 Seconds of Summer


5 Seconds of Summer is an Australian pop-punk [well, according to Wikipedia. Us fans have a different overview on it XD] band. They were formed by young Luke Hemmings (the one second from the left, the one with the lip ring and blonde quiff), who at that time had started posting videos of him making covers of songs on YouTube. Michael Clifford (the one with the blonde hair at the left) and Calum Hood (the adorable one with the beanie) joined the band after, and somehow, after a brainstorming session in Science Class, Michael texted them if they wanted the band name '5 Seconds of Summer' and because there were no other options back then, thus the name was made.

Little Luke way back in 2011 making a cover :D

The band started getting famous when they toured with One Direction, though they have grown quite a fanbase in Australia when they left to go on tour with the British boyband. They became the opening act, and it was weird because they played their own instruments, wrote their own songs, but they were an opening act for a boyband, and because they were [kinda still is, y'know. The day I'm writing this, Ashton is 20, Michael is 18, Cal is 18 and Luke is... 18] young, they are called a 'boyband' by the majority of people. EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE NOT. YOU DARE CALL THEM A BOYBAND IN FRONT OF ME IT MAY CAUSE INTO A MASSIVE FIGHT I'M SERIOUS.

5SOS and 1D [so um yea I'm part of both fandoms and this pic made me cry bye]

When their hit-single 'She Looks So Perfect' was released [yes, the catchy song 'YOU LOOK SO PERFECT STANDING THERE IN MY AMERICAN APPAREL UNDERWEAR'], it hit number one on iTunes in [I think idk don't judge] 39 different countries, and their career started growing from then on. Their first single [SLSP], their second single [Don't Stop] and their third single [Amnesia] all hit number one, and their debut self-titled album, well of course, 5 Seconds of Summer, hit number one on [ummm idk i think so??] 71 different countries [or was it 69 idk i'm SORRY I JUST REMEMBER SONG LYRICS TOO MUCH T-T].

Now the band is blowing up with over 5 million followers on Twitter, these 4 teenage boys [does Ashton count as a teen anymore bc he's definitely just a 3 year old trapped in that drummer's body] are taking over the world [YAY!]. But of course, old fans, the fans that have been here since Hemmo1996, shall always remain loyal, and keep the old references amongst ourselves.


PINK SPEAKERS AND DERP BALLS FOR EVERYONE YAY!
