What are these photo effects called? How to achieve them?

Postby bert11 on Mon Mar 21, 2011 3:35 pm

Hi there I have a couple questions on how the following effects can be achieved.

I need to know how to do these specific effects, so could please let me know if these photos have an effect name to them or have a link to a tutorial for them?

How do you get the effect for:

Thank you so much!

hi,
well keep in mind there more than one way to do the same thing in photoshop and these are my quick thoughts...

1. well this looks like a double exposure type shot ,on the first one it appears all they did
a. they did a good selection/copy/paste of the gal an put your on it own layer andmove her a bit to get the overlapping
b. then after that... adjust the opacity of the cutout and applied one of the blending modes...

2. on the 2nd one... isee a gal on a bed.... basically just a light serpia tone or orangish tint there so many different way on that one... t comes down to the image it self your working and what works best..

3. on the third one not quite sure... a gal holding a camer and very out of focus with some color outlines here and thier.. it applears
a. made 2 dupl layer.....
b. then they did a posterize and colored on the 2nd dup .. andcolories the lines....
c. t they possibly did a inverse and deleted all the white .then they mask out , or erased ...the lines they didn't want...
then on the the 1st dup layer they just used guasian blue....

however...there other meathods maybe this was the meathod they used... .... .. dup layers, then use gausian bluer and then ... using the pen tool you can make your outlines where you want and then stroke them for the color you want..

4. now the forth one fairly easy.... a gal where sharp and clear but background blury.. when shooting using a short focal length..... to simulate.....
a. you dup layer
b. do a good selection of the gal...... do a inverse and then apply a layer mask
c. then apply a guarsian blur to the back ground...
again that just one way to do it..

well those are my thoughts... others be jumping in and talking about how they do it...
