This photo-illustration was created for use with articles geared towards people who may be addicted to over the counter or prescription drugs.
My initial idea was something geared towards over-the-counter addictions. As I began to think about and research a few different options regarding a photo-illustration I narrowed the ideas down to what became "Trapped by an Addiction." Starting with the above photo I began to compile my final product.
My next step was simply taking a picture with my camera of a person who depicted a sense of agony and a desire for help.
After opening it in Photoshop, I separated the image from the background using the quick selection tool.
I copied the selected image into the pills picture (also in Photoshop) and proceeded by converting the whole image to black and white as well as adding a shadow under the girl using the brush tool.
I added the final touches by including the text "Trapped by an Addiction" and adding faded gray framing just to give it an extra pop.
