Emotional Date Columns!

It has been a while since our first layout update. However, our funny idea of editing our own face on each of the date columns is not forgotten. On 14th of december, Tuesday, we set up a camera at the corridor in front of our hostel. This venue is chosen for the wall of the corridor is plain white and it is going to be easy for us to extract the subject from the background!

We took photos that looks like this:












And the final outcome applied to our calendar looks  like this:





Steps:



First, we used Quick Selection Tool to extract the person from the background.


Next, the edges of the selection is refined.


Finally the picture is dragged to the date columns. We also added the shadow effect through Right Click > Blending Options > Drop Shadow.

Then it is done!
