As I had expected the visuals I was creating were all quite busy, I had to use large scale sections of the photography to help counteract this. As you can see above I was using lots of small sections or whole cans in some cases and there is just too much going on in each visual, even when I used filters such as colour burn or linear dodge (second and forth) the outcomes were very distracting. I do like the amount of colour I had to work with and could use editing to produce, definitley making the visuals eye catching. My favourite Cans visual is below left as the metal feel of the cans is intensified with the filters I was using as well as it still being very obvious that they are cans this is through a simplified approach on my normal editing process and as I said before larger scaled sections.
For the Cardboard visual the text and colours made editing quite a challenge and I only came up with one visual in the time I had set myself to do this task. Here I overlaid the same sections on top of themselves quite a bit using different filters and editing techniques to strip away details that were making the overall appearance extremely busy. I found the outlines of the shapes gave the best over all effect so I focused on highlighting these in the editing process.
