I decided that, for my final piece, I would create another origami 8-point modular star like I did in my experiment but, this time, I wanted to edit the photos so that each one was a different colour from the colour spectrum. The reason I did this was to make the flames seem less real and more fantastical and aesthetically pleasing. Not only this, but they also create a more interesting final piece with colours that both contrast and complement each other to draw the eye of the viewer to them.
I started off by first importing an image of the flames into photoshop and editing the levels on it. This was done both to make the colours stand out and give the flames more flow and shape.
Next, I proceeded to edit the brightness and contrast on the photo so that more of the darker tones were showing. This made the flames look more interesting and catches the eye easily.
My final step when editing the images was to change the hue, lightness, shadows and highlights and crop the image down so that it was a square. This made it simpler to know what image would be used on each part of the star when putting it together and centred the flame so that it was where the attention was going to be focussed within the composition.
