Tutorial: Where’d that guy come from?

For this assignment, I decided to photoshop a gorilla onto the Eiffel Tower in one of my travel photos.

First off, I opened the original Eiffel Tower photo and the picture of the gorilla in photoshop.

Once they are open, use the magnetic lasso tool on the gorilla and cut the image into a new layer. You can close the background of the gorilla once this is complete.

 

 

Then we need to resize the image of the gorilla to fit nicely into the photo. This can be done by going to image–>resize–>scale. Adjust the size accordingly. Then drag the newly sized gorilla on to the thumb on the photograph.

 

 

Badabingbadaboom, you’ve got a gorilla on the Eiffel Tower. Don’t forget to save as a JPEG file so you can upload it later.
