Matt Smith's profile

Basic Image Editing

Matt - Ice Muffin
Was acting as a human-food model for some of my friends at the university.
The took a picture of me as I looked like a muffin and then sent me the 
result later on. I decided to see what more the image had to offer so I just
played around with brushes to get the result below.
Bokeh City Lights

Exchanged the basic outdoor park background with a green to brown
gradient, added a blurred light orb texture (masked it) and added the
directional light with a flare brush at the top right. Adjusted all colours
and dark pasrt of the image to get the result below.
CD Cover / Pop Star look

Inspired by the music video of Jason Derulo - The Other Side
Cosmic Card deck
I just used some clown image of mine taken in some park, removed the
background, added a hand, multiplied the masked image and rotated it,
added a dark cosmic background,  adjusted the contrasts, colours and 
cropped it. 
Blazing Star explosion

A glass and steel Lamp in the form of a ball at a chinese restaurant
fascinated me. So I took an image of it and with some exaggeration,
light and contrast adjustments, plus extreme colour corrections,
masks and brushes = I was able to create this exploding star.
