Photoshop Projects
I used a photo that I had and enlarged it. I then used the texture filter in the gallery menu to make it seem like carpet. I then wrote my name and added the wave warp tool to give it a flowing look.
Black and White effect
Black and white image: I created a duplicate layer, then went to adjustments and black and white. Then with the eraser tool, I erased the petals and center from the black and white. This created emphasis on the flower because it’s a bright pink color verses just black and white.
Image Effects
I used two different stock images, one with texture and one with text. Placed the textured image on top of the text. I then used Hue/saturation and brought the saturation bar all the way down. Change image from normal to overlay. Gather both images and make a clipping mask. Use levels to create a better lighting.
The predator, prey hybrid
I used two different stock images of animals that closely resembled their fur color. I made a selection of the deer head and horns and moved them to the lion. I then lined the head and used the warp tool, a lot, to make the head look more like it was but together. I then changed the levels and color of the deer head but using channels. Afterwards, I selected the mane to give the animal a more natural feel.
Clones
My friend took pictures of me in the same setting. I place all the imaged onto one document, separate layers. Then I created masks for all images except for last one. With the paint brush tool, and on the mask layer, I deleted my top layer self out of the image and inverted it by using command I. By blending the photo to the background layer, it creates a more realistic feeling. After repeating that the image creates a balance in the image.
Eye change
I first used curves on the image to brighten the tone. With the quick selection tool, I wrapped around the eye color. Then I created a group layer so that what I did to the eye, didn’t affect the rest of the image. I played around with curves and hues to bring up the color I wanted, I also brought the saturation grab the attention more on the eye.In the end, I wanted to create a wolf like/supernatural character to the stock image.
