Switching Faces
The main thing that I learned in doing this project was the best technique used to swap out someone's face for another face and make it look natural. First, it's important to choose/ take a photo with the same or similar shadows as the original face you want to replace. This makes matching up the colors much easier. Next, I learned that the first step is to put the face you're using on 50% opacity and transform it to match up the eyes and chin with the original photo. Lastly, I learned to mask the face and then use the largest brush possible to begin to reveal the face I want over the original face. I used this technique to replace Felicity Jones' face with my own so that I could be Jyn Erso from the new star wars movie Rogue One. I love Star Wars and was inspired by this movie that I had just seen that weekend.
