To change the photo to the correct perspective in order to make an anamorphosis, we used photoshop. We used a tool that let you control the picture and put it into different perspectives. We altered ours so that it looked as if it were 3-d even though it was only a 2-D picture on a piece of paper.
Streching the picture in certain places, adding shadow, and recreating the picture on a grid, so that it had the same scale as the picture we had altered using the computer, allowed us to create a lifelike picture only using colored pencils. With the help of the grid, it was easier to transform the image since we had lines as refrence to us were to put the lines.
