Many Me Project:

Sample 1 and Sample 2

Keys to success

1. Use a tripod and don’t move it!!!
2. Take one shot where no one is in the shot. (We will use this shot in a later project)
3. Now just use one subject and have them move around.
4. Set up your first shot wide enough that you will have time to move around.

My Sample shots

(note: I did not have a tripod – so I improvised with a pan on a chair – did not work as well as a tripod would have! ) –I had to rubber stamp out the chair – it did not show up in the viewfinder- but I would have seen it on the back if I had used the preview screen to set up the shot.

Sample one Raw Pictures:

Picture One

Picture 2

Final Picture: I “copied” the Good Gus (the blue light saber) using the lasso tool out of picture 1 and pasted into picture 2. I had to use the eraser tool to delete the sections that overlapped each other. This took some experimentation.

Sample two:

I took several pictures of Gus playing in his playroom. Then I choose one picture as my master shot and copied and pasted Gus in his various poses into the master shot.
