 * How to change a photo in Photoshop into a cartoon picture **

When you start this assignment you will need to create a storyboard so that it will help your image search as well as help you create your cartoon. See image for example:




 * Open the image that you want to use. You will need to use the folder icon or go to file **-->** open. If you created this image you will need to flatten the image by doing the following: Layer>Flatten Image.


 * You will need to go to Filter **-->** Artistic **-->** Poster Edges.
 * Set Edge thickness **-->** 0
 * Set Edge intensity --> 4-5
 * Set Posterization --> 6
 * Click on OK
 * You will need to go to Filter --> Artistic --> Cutout
 * Set No. of Levels --> 8
 * Set Edge Simplicity --> 0
 * Set Edge Fidelity --> 2
 * Click OK


 * Now you have an Image that looks like a cartoon what you will need to do next is go to Take that cartoon image and add it to your Master Cartoon Page.
 * 1) Open a new Photoshop file and save it as cartoon master.
 * 2) Use the Selection tool (dotted square)
 * 3) Select the entire image from top to bottom.
 * 4) Use the move tool and move the image to the cartoon master file.
 * 5) Save the cartoon master and repeat steps 1-5
 * 6) You will need to leave space below each cartoon picture so you can use the text tool (**T**) and write a caption for your cartoon.
 * 7) Or add your speech bubbles.
 * 8) You may want to size your picture for the simple fact that you want all your scenes (at least 6) to be the same size so your cartoon look great!


 * When the cartoon is complete you will need to save the file as your name in the cartoon project folder inside the 8th grade folder on the server.
