For my final emulation, I chose the black and white torn photograph from charmaineolivia.tumblr.com because it employs an interesting technique that I wanted to experiment with.
First, I created a photoshoot in which the model/subject was wearing similar clothing to the original photograph. I also positioned my model so that she was making the same gestures as the original as well as having the same sort of posture. I positioned the lighting so that her face was lit up in a similar way to the original then imported the image I wanted into photoshop. I changed it so that it was black and white and had a similar amount of contrast before printing it out and ripping the paper where the photo was ripped in the original. After that, I stuck it onto a plain piece of white paper and scanned the image back into the computer.
How to improve:
- Make the lighting more like the lighting in the original photo
- Create more contrast so that the model is more visible
- Use smaller rips to create a better result
- Make sure the photo prints onto plain paper so that no writing or black lines show through
