Image Techniques

What is the purpose of color correction techniques in image manipulation?

• To add text to images

• To blur the entire image

• To convert images to black and white

• To adjust and enhance colors in an image for accurate representation and visual appeal.

Explain the difference between global and local color correction methods.

• Global color correction methods adjust overall color balance, while local methods target specific regions for precise adjustments.

• Global color correction methods and local methods have the same effect on color balance.

• Global color correction methods target specific regions for precise adjustments.

• Local color correction methods adjust overall color balance.

How can layer masking be used to blend two images seamlessly?

• Apply a layer mask to one image and use a gradient or brush tool to reveal parts of the underlying image, creating a seamless blend.

• Merge the two images together and adjust the brightness and contrast to create a seamless blend

• Apply a layer mask to both images and set the opacity to 100% for one image and 0% for the other

• Use the eraser tool to manually blend the edges of the images together

Describe the process of creating a layer mask in Photoshop.

• Right-click on the layer, choose 'Add Layer Mask', use the eraser tool to reveal the layer content.

• Select the layer, click 'Add Layer Mask' button, paint with black to hide and white to reveal.

• Select the layer, click 'Delete Layer Mask' button, paint with black to hide and white to reveal.

• Go to the 'Filter' menu, select 'Create Layer Mask', adjust opacity to reveal the layer.

What is the advantage of using adjustment layers for color correction?

• Adjustment layers are only available in expensive software

• Non-destructive editing and flexibility in applying adjustments to specific areas.

• Adjustment layers reduce the quality of the image

• Adjustment layers slow down the editing process

What are some common tools used for color correction in image editing software?

• Vibrance

• Brightness/Contrast

• Exposure

• Curves, Levels, Hue/Saturation, Color Balance, Selective Color

How can layer masking help in creating selective edits in an image?

• By using layer masking, one can paint on the mask to reveal or hide portions of the image, making it easier to apply edits selectively.

• Layer masking distorts the image rather than helping in selective edits

• Layer masking creates a duplicate image instead of allowing selective edits

• Layer masking can only be used for basic edits, not selective ones

What is the significance of using clipping masks in image manipulation?

• Clipping masks change the color profile of images

• Clipping masks add 3D effects to images

• Clipping masks enhance image resolution

• Clipping masks help in controlling visibility based on the shape of the mask and enable non-destructive editing.

Explain the concept of non-destructive editing in the context of layer masking.

• Non-destructive editing in layer masking permanently alters the original image data.

• Non-destructive editing in layer masking enables reversible and precise adjustments to images without losing the original image data.

• Non-destructive editing in layer masking only allows for global adjustments to images.

• Non-destructive editing in layer masking does not provide precise adjustments to images.

How can layer blending modes enhance the final look of an edited image?

• Layer blending modes can only be used for text editing, not images

• Layer blending modes have no impact on the final look of an edited image

• Layer blending modes can make the image look worse

• Layer blending modes can enhance the final look of an edited image by allowing different layers to interact with each other in various ways.
