Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:00,530 --> 00:00:05,580
All right here's where the fun really begins on our Photoshop composite image project hopefully taking
2
00:00:05,580 --> 00:00:09,390
the time to follow along and you've got an image in place here with the background and maybe a cut out
3
00:00:09,390 --> 00:00:14,940
of yourself or the assets that I provided and you get your colors looking kind of close here we've got
4
00:00:14,940 --> 00:00:16,800
maybe some shadows in place.
5
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:22,530
Just to reiterate here my shadow was just to show you how to do this in fact but realistically you know
6
00:00:22,650 --> 00:00:26,520
it's coming from the side as far as lighting so that wouldn't be a great solution here.
7
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:30,660
But anyway take the time to get it right where you want and now we're going to push it further.
8
00:00:30,660 --> 00:00:34,470
This is where the fun really begins because you can do as much as you want as much time as you have
9
00:00:34,470 --> 00:00:34,500
.
10
00:00:34,500 --> 00:00:35,690
You can go for it.
11
00:00:35,700 --> 00:00:38,550
Here's another example of a project that I made for a client.
12
00:00:38,550 --> 00:00:43,800
This was an actual poster we had printed that was there battlewagon they called it that's a real thing
13
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:43,990
.
14
00:00:44,100 --> 00:00:48,220
And the before photo here I'll move it to the side.
15
00:00:48,350 --> 00:00:51,960
Here is what I started with so we actually already had some bullet shells on the ground.
16
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:55,330
But the background wasn't that compelling the sky was kind of boring.
17
00:00:55,350 --> 00:00:59,160
The colors were a little muted and this landscape isn't that impressive.
18
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:10,320
So what we ended up doing was bringing in some new mountain ranges did some coloring.
19
00:01:10,320 --> 00:01:14,280
Then I brought in some custom flames that I bought at Creative market Dotcom's So they were already
20
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:15,990
isolated for me.
21
00:01:16,010 --> 00:01:21,390
I got a little more visual interest in the sky going on here than I brought back in the battlewagon
22
00:01:21,390 --> 00:01:25,100
here and you can see where selection's really play a huge part in selling this.
23
00:01:25,100 --> 00:01:31,160
I actually had to cut through the glass but you'll see now we've got this blue overshadow here are this
24
00:01:31,260 --> 00:01:32,850
this blue coloring.
25
00:01:32,940 --> 00:01:36,660
And I had to cut out right here with the bumpers that was see through so the flames show through so
26
00:01:36,660 --> 00:01:42,350
that a lot of attention to detail and even the reflection on the roof to make it look kind of real.
27
00:01:42,510 --> 00:01:46,570
And then I came back and created window fake windows over the top.
28
00:01:46,570 --> 00:01:54,840
It's more coloring added a flair layer here to kind of blend between the sky and even at a huge moon
29
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:54,870
.
30
00:01:54,870 --> 00:01:59,280
Just because I could so it was a lot of fun to make this project so you can see.
31
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:03,300
You know don't don't just stop here with a background and an image of yourself.
32
00:02:03,420 --> 00:02:05,110
Go ahead and add more elements.
33
00:02:05,180 --> 00:02:10,440
In fact if you wanted to I will provide this isolated fire folder for you.
34
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:16,860
So if you wanted to you can just start bringing in maybe some fire or anything as you can imagine.
35
00:02:16,860 --> 00:02:21,870
And again this has already been isolated for me so it does a pretty good job of blending into the background
36
00:02:21,870 --> 00:02:25,110
but there's some ways that we can make this look even more realistic.
37
00:02:25,110 --> 00:02:31,950
So one of the ways is dragging this layer behind him maybe duplicating it or bringing in another fire
38
00:02:32,010 --> 00:02:34,610
object or just drag and drop right over the top here.
39
00:02:34,620 --> 00:02:39,450
Scale it down and we'll bring this layer in front of him.
40
00:02:39,460 --> 00:02:43,660
I'm going to command in the right bracket key just to move that up one step.
41
00:02:44,010 --> 00:02:45,810
So now looks like he's actually standing in the fire.
42
00:02:45,810 --> 00:02:49,170
We can play this even further if I zoom in.
43
00:02:49,170 --> 00:02:55,740
Now when I come back this flame layer and double click and just to clarify here I don't want to double
44
00:02:55,740 --> 00:02:56,810
click on the icon.
45
00:02:56,820 --> 00:03:03,210
This is a smart object if I double click there it'll take me to the flame in the open in a different
46
00:03:03,210 --> 00:03:04,620
file in a different tab.
47
00:03:04,860 --> 00:03:08,100
So what we want to do is double click right here and not in the name either because they don't make
48
00:03:08,100 --> 00:03:09,750
us rename the layer.
49
00:03:09,750 --> 00:03:14,910
I want to click over here on the side and that opens up my layer styles so that where we can add a lot
50
00:03:14,910 --> 00:03:17,670
of different things especially if it was a text layer or something else.
51
00:03:17,670 --> 00:03:21,510
But right now what I'm really interested in is this blend If mode.
52
00:03:21,510 --> 00:03:28,770
So right now I'm working on this flame in front of his foot and I can say anything that's bright on
53
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:34,270
this top layer this layer I mean the one I'm working on I can make it go away I can hold on the old
54
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:38,280
key and split this to kind of make it a smoother transition.
55
00:03:38,370 --> 00:03:42,930
But that doesn't look quite like what I wanted to do so I could try the dark layers and there's really
56
00:03:42,930 --> 00:03:45,290
not much darkness flame it's all bright.
57
00:03:45,330 --> 00:03:46,830
That doesn't do what I want it to.
58
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:48,640
So let's try the underlying layer.
59
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:50,670
I'll start dragging this back.
60
00:03:50,670 --> 00:03:55,740
So now anything with a light tone will start to show through some of those flames and the flame behind
61
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,130
now start to peek through a little bit and that way it looks like they're blending together.
62
00:03:59,460 --> 00:04:04,350
And I'll drag a hold on the old key and drag right from the dark layers and now a shoe kind of starts
63
00:04:04,350 --> 00:04:08,640
to come back and is just a subtle effect just enough to know that it's still there.
64
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:09,990
But the flames are in front of it.
65
00:04:09,990 --> 00:04:14,660
So this is a really great trick to start blending layers together.
66
00:04:14,950 --> 00:04:16,390
So OK and come back.
67
00:04:16,410 --> 00:04:19,350
So you could really push this a lot further.
68
00:04:19,350 --> 00:04:25,260
Another thing that we can do to sell this again our light sources from the left so we could use the
69
00:04:25,260 --> 00:04:27,340
dodge and burn tools.
70
00:04:27,390 --> 00:04:29,910
I'm going to click once on this layer and I'm going to rename it.
71
00:04:29,940 --> 00:04:35,010
So it's double clicking here and I'll call this original For now really something original we've already
72
00:04:35,010 --> 00:04:36,110
done some coloring to it.
73
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:41,170
But it's as close to the original as I have at command J to duplicate it.
74
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:46,980
Emily come over here and grab my dodge and burn tools and so the Dodge tool and the burn tool.
75
00:04:47,130 --> 00:04:48,680
Basically what they do is look at that.
76
00:04:48,690 --> 00:04:50,460
Let's look at the Darsheel first.
77
00:04:50,460 --> 00:04:52,560
Right now I'm working on the mid-tone range.
78
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:54,040
My exposure is at 50 percent.
79
00:04:54,060 --> 00:05:00,000
And now as I paint over this layer it actually exposes it and makes it brighter.
80
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:04,290
So I could come along the left edge here are any highlights that I want to really make pop whether it's
81
00:05:04,290 --> 00:05:11,640
on his face and I can paint with mid-tone exposure at 50 percent and basically brightening it up.
82
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:16,740
So we're essentially painting with light and that's one of the biggest fundamental keys when you're
83
00:05:16,740 --> 00:05:22,960
doing Photoshop composite images and you see some as really extreme HDR merge types of things.
84
00:05:23,130 --> 00:05:25,120
A lot of times it's just painting with light or dark.
85
00:05:25,350 --> 00:05:29,280
And I can turn this off and see where I've painted.
86
00:05:29,810 --> 00:05:33,850
Another way to work is to I can turn that layer off.
87
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:38,980
This duplicate this originally or again and I could grab my layers or I'm sorry my levels command L
88
00:05:39,740 --> 00:05:46,870
and I could just come in here and really crank up the details this way and I'll use Alair Masco click
89
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:49,820
on this Lehrman ask if I click right now and nothing happens.
90
00:05:50,020 --> 00:05:51,910
It just adds a mass to be filled.
91
00:05:52,310 --> 00:05:57,020
If I Allt click it actually fills that with black by default.
92
00:05:57,010 --> 00:05:58,030
So you can't see it.
93
00:05:58,050 --> 00:05:59,140
Everything's been hidden.
94
00:05:59,140 --> 00:06:07,360
So now I can hit the B to get my brush tool and because black hides and white reveals I can swap this
95
00:06:07,370 --> 00:06:12,310
right here or I'll hit the letter X to swap my foreground and background colors where I can have this
96
00:06:12,310 --> 00:06:14,740
tiny little double arrow to swap which was in front.
97
00:06:14,750 --> 00:06:16,770
I basically want to be painting with white.
98
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:22,630
So as I come through here and I start painting I'm actually unmasking or revealing the layer below it
99
00:06:22,630 --> 00:06:22,920
.
100
00:06:22,940 --> 00:06:26,290
Now up here I've got my opacity set to 12 percent so you're really not seeing any change.
101
00:06:26,290 --> 00:06:32,540
I'm going to scrub that back up to 100 percent so you can see when I make sure I'm painting on my mask
102
00:06:32,530 --> 00:06:32,970
layer here.
103
00:06:32,990 --> 00:06:38,320
And then one other thing is I got to make sure my blend mode is set to normal up here so we see what's
104
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:39,310
going on.
105
00:06:39,310 --> 00:06:41,610
There we go and that's a pretty harsh brush.
106
00:06:41,770 --> 00:06:43,110
I could come back in.
107
00:06:43,210 --> 00:06:48,680
Drop this opacity down quite a bit you know and just make some subtle subtle changes here.
108
00:06:48,790 --> 00:06:53,020
And the benefit of working this way is if I change my mind or if I get too much I can hit the letter
109
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:54,240
X to swap.
110
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:58,810
And now I'm painting with black and I can come back in and reverse my mask.
111
00:06:58,810 --> 00:07:04,900
So this weighs a lot less destructive it's a nice way to add some highlights or some dark tones so let's
112
00:07:04,900 --> 00:07:10,840
go and do some dark tones now if I grab my original error and like command J There's a couple of ways
113
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:11,480
I could work here.
114
00:07:11,500 --> 00:07:14,040
Let's finish that other dodge burn section.
115
00:07:14,060 --> 00:07:19,450
I'll come back over to my dodge burn tool and how many is my burn tool and I can burn my highlights
116
00:07:19,450 --> 00:07:21,550
my mid tones and my shadows whatever you want to do.
117
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:22,790
Like my mid tones.
118
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:28,880
And now as I start painting over this it just burns glare so it just adds more depth.
119
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:33,120
And you know I probably want to burn the right side a little bit to make it darker.
120
00:07:33,340 --> 00:07:35,540
And right now I'm mostly showing you technique.
121
00:07:35,540 --> 00:07:39,970
This doesn't look that fantastic but you can play with this depending on what your image needs and if
122
00:07:40,450 --> 00:07:44,870
maybe you need to work on the shadows of the highlights you can just change the range and now it'll
123
00:07:44,870 --> 00:07:47,560
only affect the highlight tones but not really the darker tone.
124
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,870
So that's a really nice way to really refine what you're doing here.
125
00:07:51,130 --> 00:07:55,190
But again I like to work on destructively so what I'm going to do is duplicate that original layer all
126
00:07:55,190 --> 00:07:56,610
more time command.
127
00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:05,680
And I'm going to change my blend mode to multiply and now it's multiplying that layer and making everything
128
00:08:05,690 --> 00:08:07,100
dark behind it.
129
00:08:07,690 --> 00:08:12,400
That's one way to get it looking dark the other way I can connect my layer I'm trying my levels command
130
00:08:12,500 --> 00:08:20,770
L and I could scrub here to bring in some darks but maybe pull back a little bit on the mid-tone So
131
00:08:20,770 --> 00:08:23,090
I'm just really dealing with the dark tones.
132
00:08:23,140 --> 00:08:25,510
Like I said there's a lot of ways to do the same thing.
133
00:08:25,540 --> 00:08:31,510
So nomine idle airmass this Mella Allt and click on umask So now that dark tone has gone away.
134
00:08:31,510 --> 00:08:34,910
Make sure I'm painting on that mask layer with my brush tool.
135
00:08:35,890 --> 00:08:43,280
And as I I'm going to hit X to swap my foreground so it's painting with white to reveal so I can come
136
00:08:43,270 --> 00:08:50,570
in here and start adding some of those dark tones if I wanted to you know really sell the fact that
137
00:08:50,570 --> 00:08:55,970
there's a shadow on the side and you can see right away I do have some color issues here so it's one
138
00:08:55,970 --> 00:09:00,880
of those things where depending on your image and what's in the image and what effect you're trying
139
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:06,410
to get you might need to use multiple techniques the dodge and burn you might need to use the blend
140
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,430
modes over here to get different effects and masking.
141
00:09:09,430 --> 00:09:13,780
So these are all great ways to work but to really try and sell that effect and again you're going to
142
00:09:13,780 --> 00:09:16,300
need to experiment with what makes sense in your image.
143
00:09:16,300 --> 00:09:21,340
So I don't like the shadows I did there I'm going to turn it off and I don't mind those bright colors
144
00:09:21,350 --> 00:09:21,970
.
145
00:09:22,250 --> 00:09:26,020
The flame thing is a little you know obviously a little ridiculous but just wanted to show you that
146
00:09:26,020 --> 00:09:30,790
you can work elements back and forth and bring in some different some different things.
147
00:09:30,790 --> 00:09:34,690
Now if this truly was on fire here his leg would be glowing on this side.
148
00:09:34,690 --> 00:09:41,680
So what we do is command click on this layer to get a selection and click on the new layer icon right
149
00:09:41,680 --> 00:09:47,930
here to get a layer in front of it and I'm going to see there's a few ways we could do this.
150
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:54,250
I could sample all me use the letter I to get a sample of this color this yellow color it be to get
151
00:09:54,250 --> 00:10:00,880
my brush tool and maybe drag my opacity down quite a bit and just kind of start to add some yellow highlights
152
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:01,840
there maybe get the letter.
153
00:10:01,870 --> 00:10:08,630
I again to sample a different color within that and just kind of work in some different colors here
154
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:08,970
.
155
00:10:09,430 --> 00:10:14,120
And then I can play with my blend mode there I'll come over here to my blend modes and this just changes
156
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:19,130
how the layers interact with each other how they blend whatever's on top blending with what's below
157
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:19,480
.
158
00:10:19,490 --> 00:10:24,410
So a shortcut I like to use with your move to a selected letter V on the layer you want to change.
159
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:30,620
Now if I just hit shift and the plus sign or shift in mind is I can step back and forth between these
160
00:10:30,620 --> 00:10:34,690
here and get a quick idea of what's going to look good so hold down shift.
161
00:10:34,690 --> 00:10:41,230
And plus I just to cycle real quickly and see what color mode might interact to get the most realistic
162
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,280
effect there.
163
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:49,620
So and once I get some that I'm happy with this total preference just whatever you want to do I can
164
00:10:49,620 --> 00:10:50,960
leave it there.
165
00:10:51,020 --> 00:10:56,780
I can even push this a little bit further maybe I grabbed this flame hold on the Alt key to drag a copy
166
00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:02,400
over here command to just change it a little bit here and maybe even reflect it.
167
00:11:02,390 --> 00:11:08,220
All right click and I'll flip horizontal OK.
168
00:11:08,460 --> 00:11:14,570
And now I'm going to do is come back down to this layer and you can see certainly a lot of layers so
169
00:11:14,580 --> 00:11:19,030
what I'll do is I tear this off so I can see more.
170
00:11:19,250 --> 00:11:23,950
All right so this flame in this layer is what I'm working with here so I'm going to drag this down.
171
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:25,420
And there's a few things I could do.
172
00:11:25,420 --> 00:11:31,290
I could hold on the alter key and click between here and what that does is it uses whatever layers below
173
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:32,700
as a mask.
174
00:11:32,730 --> 00:11:35,600
If I want to undo it all on alt and click between the layers.
175
00:11:35,900 --> 00:11:37,380
So that's an easy way to.
176
00:11:37,380 --> 00:11:44,280
Now I can move as layer around and you'll see it's masked by the shape below it.
177
00:11:44,730 --> 00:11:50,020
Another way I can work is well that's actually my favorite way to work right now.
178
00:11:50,100 --> 00:11:58,220
But now I can add a layer mask to this here and I can start to paint with black to hide some of this
179
00:11:58,230 --> 00:12:04,800
I need to drag my capacity back up here and I can start to remove some of this here and I just want
180
00:12:04,860 --> 00:12:06,190
to be a subtle effects.
181
00:12:06,210 --> 00:12:09,760
I'm going to scrub my opacity for that layer down quite a bit actually.
182
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:16,340
I just wanted to be barely even just just barely hint that it's even there at all and that those are
183
00:12:16,350 --> 00:12:20,400
the little details that as you build up more and more will start to really sell the effect that this
184
00:12:20,390 --> 00:12:21,740
is really happening.
185
00:12:21,750 --> 00:12:27,120
So play with that whether it's flames or putting it in a different environment.
186
00:12:27,170 --> 00:12:28,820
Get that where you want it to go.
187
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:31,680
Use your your dodge and burn tools.
188
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:38,810
And now we want to do is try and bring all of this into one cohesive image so ways to do that.
189
00:12:38,820 --> 00:12:41,390
Now we want to affect this entire image.
190
00:12:41,390 --> 00:12:45,670
We did we did some of that with the color correcting but now we're going to look at adjustment layers
191
00:12:45,670 --> 00:12:48,790
so let's go ahead and come down here to this little icon.
192
00:12:49,190 --> 00:12:50,630
We'll click once on it.
193
00:12:51,570 --> 00:12:58,190
And let's start with the photo filter adjustment layer or click once on that and then adds it right
194
00:12:58,190 --> 00:13:01,530
above whatever layer I was I was selected I had selected.
195
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:06,110
And you'll notice so it affects the background image but it doesn't do anything to my flames or to the
196
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:07,270
guy standing here.
197
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:11,390
So what I'm going to do is drag this adjustment layer all the way to the top and now it affect everything
198
00:13:11,390 --> 00:13:12,390
down below it.
199
00:13:12,420 --> 00:13:16,470
I tell you this on and off for a quick it's a pretty subtle difference.
200
00:13:17,610 --> 00:13:22,730
But it does affect the coloring of the image and it starts to make it feel more cohesive.
201
00:13:23,030 --> 00:13:30,860
If I double click on that I can see I have some different mask options by double click on the camera
202
00:13:30,870 --> 00:13:30,990
.
203
00:13:30,990 --> 00:13:35,780
It brings me over to the properties of that adjustment layer so I can change to different filters some
204
00:13:35,780 --> 00:13:42,770
different presets and you'll see they all have different effects on the image.
205
00:13:43,740 --> 00:13:49,070
So what I'd like to do is probably leave it on this yellow or maybe the warming filter just to get a
206
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:50,650
subtle effect here.
207
00:13:50,750 --> 00:13:58,490
Let's add another adjustment layer this time I'm going to do the hue saturation and there's some different
208
00:13:58,500 --> 00:14:03,120
presets some different things you can play with you can work on the saturation to really pull out some
209
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:08,010
of the colors if you pull it too far turned into a black and white image too far the other direction
210
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:08,030
.
211
00:14:08,030 --> 00:14:09,440
And it really starts to look terrible.
212
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,740
So play with that a little bit maybe bump it down just a touch.
213
00:14:12,870 --> 00:14:17,180
You can work with the overall lightness of the image but you'll notice it's affecting everything every
214
00:14:17,180 --> 00:14:22,410
layer and what this will help do for your image is make it feel like the photo was taken at the same
215
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,110
place at the same time.
216
00:14:24,260 --> 00:14:26,540
Or we can jump over here to the preset.
217
00:14:27,090 --> 00:14:33,470
I like the old style and that helps really make it feel like it's part of the same image.
218
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:37,970
Now this is a little bit too far probably because I've got this photo filter here if I turn that off
219
00:14:37,980 --> 00:14:38,010
.
220
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:43,650
You'll notice it brings back a little bit of that and you just need to play with it maybe maybe grab
221
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:48,860
this layer and drop the opacity just a touch so it's affecting the layer but not not completely not
222
00:14:48,870 --> 00:14:50,350
at 100 percent strength.
223
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:56,180
And that'll help just all these little details as you build them up really sell the image.
224
00:14:56,180 --> 00:15:02,100
So now that you've done that go ahead and push this as far as you want and make sure you save along
225
00:15:02,100 --> 00:15:03,340
the way as you go.
226
00:15:03,500 --> 00:15:06,610
And the other thing we can do here.
227
00:15:06,620 --> 00:15:12,790
Let me jump real quick into that nerd poster I made.
228
00:15:13,130 --> 00:15:17,700
You can add layers to the very top of this so right now I've got this effect.
229
00:15:17,790 --> 00:15:21,570
It's very very subtle but it's a little burst image Let me show you I've got a lot.
230
00:15:21,570 --> 00:15:27,090
So unlock is layer turn my opacity all the way up and fill all the way up and you see I've got a blend
231
00:15:27,090 --> 00:15:32,700
mode again set to overlay so it overlays the color on top of the layers below it but changed back to
232
00:15:32,690 --> 00:15:33,030
normal.
233
00:15:33,020 --> 00:15:39,210
You see it's basically a gradient like a radial solar flare and the whole reason that this is on this
234
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:46,130
image when you change it back to overlay drop down my fill and my opacity and you can see it's super
235
00:15:46,130 --> 00:15:52,740
super subtle effect but it helps do is color all of it if I turn it back up you can see not all the
236
00:15:52,740 --> 00:15:56,840
coloring on these people look quite right with the background.
237
00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:02,430
So by putting this over the top of it it really helps darken the top right area but bright and this
238
00:16:02,420 --> 00:16:04,850
like there is one unified light source.
239
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:09,890
So that's basically all we're doing with these layers creating a light source now that helps the whole
240
00:16:09,890 --> 00:16:10,780
image look unified.
241
00:16:10,790 --> 00:16:14,360
These adjustment layers over here these helped the coloring look consistent.
242
00:16:14,610 --> 00:16:18,830
And now we want to bring the light source from one spot so there's a lot of ways to do this.
243
00:16:18,870 --> 00:16:23,840
I just happen to use this solar flare things are going to drag and drop this over the top of everything
244
00:16:23,850 --> 00:16:30,950
in this new image here command t to scale it up and resize it where it needs to be.
245
00:16:31,250 --> 00:16:35,480
And as a scale you can kind of see those lens flares coming but it almost works out perfect for the
246
00:16:35,490 --> 00:16:37,530
light source and the factory is coming from.
247
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,250
So I'm going to scale it to get it pretty close.
248
00:16:40,260 --> 00:16:44,060
I return and now it made my overall image pretty dark.
249
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:49,860
So there's a few things I can do I can just drag the opacity down or I'm going to come back over here
250
00:16:49,940 --> 00:16:54,990
with my move to like selected on shift and plus to cycle through some different effects here.
251
00:16:54,990 --> 00:16:56,900
Some of these are more believable than others.
252
00:16:56,900 --> 00:16:58,300
Some of these are totally unusable.
253
00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:02,740
This penlight might be nice if you really wanted to keep that solar flare effect.
254
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:08,270
But again every image is different so just cycle through and see what effect gives you the best the
255
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,310
best results on your image.
256
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:16,890
And right now it's looking like nothing I've got to look at to is what it's doing to his face.
257
00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:17,310
Right.
258
00:17:17,340 --> 00:17:21,930
So it's looking like lightening might be a good solution.
259
00:17:22,010 --> 00:17:25,370
That one's not bad color dodge.
260
00:17:25,380 --> 00:17:26,410
Well then you dodge.
261
00:17:26,610 --> 00:17:27,490
So just play with it.
262
00:17:27,510 --> 00:17:28,970
Play with it see what works best.
263
00:17:29,120 --> 00:17:32,180
And then again back off your settings just a little bit.
264
00:17:32,180 --> 00:17:39,090
So it's not such an overkill effect and it's all the subtleties that add up to create a really compelling
265
00:17:39,120 --> 00:17:40,050
composite image.
266
00:17:40,060 --> 00:17:42,350
So good luck with that.
267
00:17:42,360 --> 00:17:45,060
Go ahead and press on get your images just how you like it.
268
00:17:45,060 --> 00:17:48,360
Be sure you save along the way in the next lesson.
269
00:17:48,360 --> 00:17:51,570
We'll take a quick look at exporting what we've completed.
