Anthropocene image editing + experimentation

Image editing

This involved editing and getting the best images that represented urbanisation in Jersey and putting them with other images that go together. I sorted them into 2 groups:

The rise of urbanisation in Jersey

The fall of agriculture in Jersey

Experimentation

My idea is to experiment with this photo of an old tv. The first thing I edited was a static screen onto the tv.

To do this I roughly erased the area of the screen using the eraser tool

I then got an image of tv static online and copied it into photoshop. I placed it where the screen is.

Then I zoomed in and cleaned up the borders of the area I had erased. I also painted over the plants that were going over the screen before using the eyedropper tool. This was so it did not look like the plants had been cut off

Final products:

I did the same thing with another image, this time I used an article from the JEP about the plans for Holme Grown and how they are planning to replace the old greenhouses with a care home and a cannabis farm.
