Frank Ocean, Walkman, and Camera in Retrogade

Writer's picture: Maxwell BarruetaMaxwell Barrueta


This by far has been my most favorite and advanced exercise yet. I am very excited to continue working on this amazing program. To begin with, I chose the image in the background which consists of the city landscape and these skaters in the middle. I followed this by adding a couple of filters of sketch and "grain." Then I cropped it all out so the only background in the frame was the bottom half of the skaters. After this, I inserted two images: the walkman and the camera. Both of these had a white background so it was easy to use the magic wand and delete the white. I also changed the continuous number to one so that it matched only with that specific shade of white; I did this for both the walkman and the camera. The last image I incorporated was of the man covering his face whose name is Frank ocean. I decided to challenge myself for this one as this comes from his album which is not just him and not just a white background. So, in order to crop him out, I used a magic wand type eraser and an object select. After playing around with these for a while I figured it out and voila!
