SPEAKING FROM EXPERIENCE// Publication progress 1

 This is just a short post about how I prepared my images for the publication.

 First off I took a screenshot of the website in question, here it is Jeff Andrews pinterest page. I scaled the edges so only the page itself was showing.

I then used a layer mask to turn the image into a black and white image while keeping the colour profile in cmyk. In some case I used the desaturate tool instead (shift, ctrl, U).

I then used another layer mask to add colour back to the image, Each page will have its own theme and for the pinterest page that theme will be green. I created the green out of cyan and yellow to avoid any print issues with colour matching later (instead of using the RGB slider).

By just changing the midtone to green I got a nice soft green tint to the image. This will be added to the publication later.

I will have to repeat this process for all 40 website that will be included in the publication.
