Week6：Summary of my lecture here.
This week, Mr. Martin teaches us how to use filter-distort-displace photos in PS, so that the original photo can be replaced into a different style.We follow the teacher's steps in class and learn this skill.
The classroom exercises are as shown below, divided into three parts.
1.As shown below, it is the first filter-distortion-displacement exercise done in the class: put the Malaysian flag on the yellow silk. In the first step, you need to set the yellow silk image to black and white, and apply Gaussian blur to the image to 1.0 to save it. In the second step, place the Malaysian flag layer on top of the yellow silk layer. Step 3: Distort Displace the black and white silk layer in filter mode. The fourth step is to change the Malaysian flag layer to darken using the "Multiple Blending Mode".

2.As shown in the picture below, it is the second exercise done in the class, replacing the woman's face with a logo. The first step is to save the lady photo as a black and white photo using Gaussian Blur 1.0. In the second step, place the logo layer on top of the colorful lady photo layer and set it to smart mode. In the third step, use Filter-Distort-Displace the lady photo to black and white, and darken the logo image using the "Multiple Blending Mode". The fourth step is to create a layer mask and use a brush to erase the unnecessary parts of the logo.

FEEDBACK
Week5:
I recolored a black and white photo. The lecturer thought the recoloring was very good, but reminded me that I forgot to change the black and white clothes into colored clothes. After that, I replaced the black and white sweater of the character with a yellow one as requested by the lecturer. Sweater makes the overall color look more harmonious.
Week6:
The lecturer looked at the double exposure homework I did and thought it was good, but there were areas that needed improvement. He gave me some suggestions and thought that the picture was too monotonous because I used flower elements as the main tone, so he suggested that I add some color to the characters. Add some flowers or butterfly elements to other places to make it look more vibrant.
Week7:
The instructor mentioned that the salmon and lighter tips were good together, but the combination of eel and leather straps could be used in a different way.
