The document describes the steps taken to create a movie poster in Photoshop. First, a picture was found online and the background was removed using the Magnetic Lasso tool. The picture was placed in the center of the poster. Next, a cloud image was selected for the background to match the title "Head in the Clouds" and a single cloud was cut out and placed over the man's head. Colors were adjusted using the Hue and Saturation tool. A credit block was found online and resized to fit the poster. Text was added for the title and actors' names using different fonts and styles to stand out on the poster.
