Introduction

For this assignment, I have six weeks to digitally manipulate an image using Photoshop. Throughout the six weeks we will have three digital workshops to help us create our image, and then by week six we need to have our final image.

I need to be able to understand how image manipulation techniques are used in the work of others, be able to digitise source materials, be able to originate work using image manipulation hardware and software and be able to present own design outcomes.

Within this assignment, I need to include research, to inspire me to create my digitally manipulated image.
I need to put all of my work onto my blog, whilst working through it, at different stages, and then I need to include my final image.
