Another thing that I enjoyed doing during the project was digital toning. What interested me about this was the endless possibilities that you could create. You could entirely change the mood of your image by just adding a colour to it. As I used coloured gels in my shoot, I thought it would be interesting to see what my images looked like if they were solidly the colour of the colour gel. I wanted to see if this helped change the mood, or link to the house better.
This was a very quick edit that I did on Photoshop to test out toning and to see if I liked the look of it. Although it is not perfect and does require some further editing and adjustments, I love the way that this looks. This works very well if I was going to create a poster for a Harry Potter movie, or even advertising products. This process was extremely quick and simple and the effects are brilliant. I had not initially planned to use toning in my final series, but now after testing it out like this, I am definitely going to test out more and consider it. I believe it helps to categorise each portrait into the intended Hogwarts house perfectly. The strong use of colour also helps to give an insight into the personality of the house, which is very useful.
