7. Edit images
8. Save as appropriate formats
Plan of Montage:
• I am going to include different images from sourced sites, as well as my own
photographs – I am going to scan in an image to layer onto the background.
• I will make the main focus of the picture the title, this will be in colour.
• I will then put images of children’s furniture in the background, and make them stand
out; they will still be in colour.
• I will also include a scanned image to the side of the picture or in the middle, it will be
in colour and I will make sure that it stands out.
