This video taught us how to use a 'Gaussian Blur' which was a lot easier to do, all it took was placing a circle over the part we wanted visible and it blurred the rest!
This is the finished image we got and the edges looked a lot smoother than the previous attempt so we were really happy with how it turned out!

As we are also aiming for a humble looking star we decided to have Holly looking away from the camera and we think it links well with the title 'Chapters' as we wanted it to be interpreted as her opening up to the fans in her songs and showing them the chapters she's lived.

Textual analysis notes

In lesson we focused on some main tips to make a good textual analysis because everyone was struggling to understand the concepts of what to do and what to look for. I got loads of useful notes and hope to put them to use in my textual analysis' over the year.
