Editing Day 2- Song Lyrics?

Quoting is liking someone's work. Today, I'll be showing a new edit of mine where I decided to quote from a song and use a line from it in my edit. The song is called Sick of it by Skillet, it's an amazing song in my view, therefore I had to use a line or two from it in my newest edit.


Adding effects is customising. Here, I have decided to use the same purple effect as I did in my previous edit. To be frank, the purple orbs are actually lens flares available in Picsart's editing options. I highly recommend Picsart as your main editing app, it has wonderful features and most of them are free.

Side by side comparison of my edit and the original picture.

Comparing is noting similarities and differences. After my usual side by side comparison of the finished and original work, I can clearly see the power of effects.

Arranging is placing things to where they belong. You really have to feel this one. No one, not even me, can tell you where and how to put your text one, and what fonts to use. I have decided to use a rather bubbly font. My reason for this choice is that on the original picture, Ezra is stealing a TIE pilot's helmet, which is his beloved hobby, he collects helmets. What he does is not serious, therefore a lighter font would fit this edit.

Edits contain feelings. I have mixed feelings about this piece of work, since the original picture and my choice of font is rather funny, whereas the quote I picked from the song is more serious. Honestly, I am not sure why it came out the way it did. Sometimes, you just have to let your feelings guide you.
