Major Project Work in Progress

After shooting my images in the studio I started to put together the final composite image. The work in progress can be seen below. When researching for this assignment I looked at different blending methods in photoshop particularly displacement maps. This didn't work so well, it really just changed the shape of the model's face, so for my desired effect I simply played around with multiple layers at different opacities.




















After looking at the image as a whole I decided that it needed more elements, so I shot a new background which was a fruit bowl and had another session in the studio with my model to get a variety of facial expressions.
