ANCILLARY WORK: Using the Colour Replacement Tool in Photoshop

The pictures I'm using for the digipak were taken on a green screen and I cut out the bodies to place on the front of the digipak. Even after using the Refine Edge tool, which helped to reduce the green that was left around the edges, there was still a bit of green left.
I used the Colour Replacement Tool and managed to change the green around the hair/faces and make the photos look more natural.
Here are some examples of before/after pictures using this tool:
Before effect: there is some green around Dionne's hair

After: the green edge around Dionne's hair has been removed


Before: there is a green shadow on Dionne's forehead

After: the green area on Dionne's forehead is now removed and replaced with her skin colour
