Vignette

Week 2 - Tutorial 2 - The Vignette Effect

This week we were asked to find a photo from the internet for applying some effects with photoshop. i chose a photo of my own, a photo of my duck. I opened the file in photoshop then duplicated the background layer, so i could add effects to the new layer.

I then added a new layer and changed the name to 'Vignette', i changed it to overlay so i could then add the vignette effect to the new layer. After selecting the new layer, I went to the filter from the menu bar > distort > lens correction. i changed the amount to 0% and the midpoint  0%.

The Vignette effect has put more of a focus on the duck, where i would like the attention of the viewer to be focused on. This was the final result.
