Photoshop to make funny Haha special effects expression Tutorial

To give you Photoshop software users to detailed analysis to share the production of funny Haha special effects of the tutorial.

Tutorial Sharing:

This is a total of three ways, using three different tools, you can use this tutorial, a brief look at the usage of these three tools.

For children, haha Mirror is a fun special effect appearance. When they see their faces twisted into unnatural proportions, children always laugh and scream with joy. I believe many netizens have had this experience. You want to know what your face looks like in Haha? In fact, no haha mirror, PS already can be achieved.

In fact, this issue of foreign quality translation courses can be said to be for parents and children to create an interesting project. After all, for children, the company of parents is the best gift. The first part of this tutorial, mainly for parents, discusses the idea of shooting. The second part is the implementation of the Haha effect through three different PS tools. This PS tutorial is not very difficult, like Haha special effects of Friends may wish to try.

One, capture portrait

Ching. No photo material, PS again strong, also can not do Haha special effects. So, let's take a look at how to photograph the child better.

First step:

For our project, the traditional head shot is the ideal choice. You can try the background panel and the lights. Of course, if possible, it is best not to use the flash, because the Flash shadow will appear, this treatment will be more annoying. The author himself is at home decorate a lamp, and then behind a white foam board.

Figure 02

Step Two:

If you have a better model, you can take a look at the model and try to adjust the camera settings and lighting. The author also found that to make cute pictures, you have to reassure the children and let them know that we are going to do an interesting job together. Of course, children are cute, but they need more encouragement and love.

Figure 03

Step Three:

This step is mainly to get interesting face pictures. The more exaggerated the expression of the child funny, the final Haha effects will be better. So you want to encourage your children to make creative, exaggerated, funny expressions and have fun with the kids in the process. Children always bring us a lot of unexpected surprises, try it!

Fourth Step:

After catching the children's faces, you can open the picture in Photoshop. Of course, this picture is very interesting if you and the kids are very fond of it. If necessary, you can also use PS for color adjustment and cutting processing.

Figure 05

Next, we're going to start using PS to create Haha effects. The author here will introduce three methods, the first is the simplest, the last one is the most challenging. You can first communicate with your child to choose a method and help him to complete the PS work. Of course, if you choose three ways to try, then you need to create three separate folders to avoid confusion.

Second, the simple deformation

OK, let's start with the first method. This first method is the simplest and fastest. This method mainly uses the PS tool when the deformation tool, together to see how simple and fun this method is.

Figure 06

First step:

First, we need to use the Polygon lasso tool. We use the tool to draw a constituency around the head, to be as careful as possible, we just have a selection of areas above the collar.

Figure 07

Step Two:

Use Ctrl+j to copy the selection into a new layer. This operation we can see in the Layers panel, a head layer will appear above the original layer.

Figure 08

Step Three:

In the menu bar, Layer tab, select Smart object > Convert to Smart object to ensure that the image is lossless. Next, we're going to start creating a transformation effect.

Figure 09

Edit > Transform > Distortion, we will find the deformation pane appears in the Operation area. At the top there will be some ready-made variants menu, try "shell". Isn't it funny?

Figure 10

Fifth Step:

Here we have a custom shape. Looking back at this transformation pane, the transformation is selected as "Custom", we will find that there are small circles on the line, which is the deformation control point. Hold down these control points and drag, and you can see the effect of the image distortion very directly.

Figure 11

Sixth step:

You can also use the same action for the lines in the transform pane. Grab a root to move, the same will appear very different deformation effect.

Figure 12

Seventh Step:

When you are satisfied with the effect of your deformation, you can then check the top of the "Submit transform." Here, our transformation work is done.

Figure 13

Third, control deformation

Compared to simple deformation, the control of deformation tools is better, but the corresponding use of the difficulty will be greater. Manipulation of deformation processing image of the beginning of a few steps and simple deformation is the same, we do not repeat here, forget the friend can see a simple deformation of the content.

Figure 14

First step:

As with simple transformations, selections are initially selected and converted to smart objects.

Figure 15

Step Two:

Starting from the bending, adjust the bending to 50%.

Figure 16

Step Three:

Edit > Manipulate variants. We now think of the image as an elastic fabric and we need to pin it to keep it from moving too much. One in the middle of the eye, one in the position near the top of the head.

Figure 17

Fourth Step:

Also place a Pushpin on the chin and pull down. Let's see what happened to her chin. Easy to operate ... This is the manipulation of the deformation, add a Pushpin, and control its movement.

Figure 18

Fifth Step:

Continue to add the Pushpin until you feel this face is very funny.

Figure 19

Sixth step:

As with simple deformations, when satisfied with the result of the deformation, you can "submit transforms" at the top.

Figure 20

This is the image that is obtained after manipulating the deformation process.

Figure 21

Four, liquefaction tools

The last method is the most interesting, but also the most challenging, that is the liquefaction tool.

Figure 22

First step:

There is no need to select a selection when using the Liquefaction tool, but it is necessary to convert the image to a smart object.

Figure 23

Step Two:

Filters > liquefaction. The operation of the Liquefaction tool is accomplished by a brush-like tool on the left side of the liquefaction panel. These tools have special effects, and we will make full use of them in the later operations.

Figure 24

Step Three:

The first tool is "forward transform tool". I set the size of the brush larger, about 250, brush pressure is 50. Then try to put the middle of the mouth up and down on both sides.

Figure 25

Fourth Step:

Next we use the "expansion tool" to make sure that the brush size is slightly larger than the image's eye, about 300. A few times in the middle of the eye makes the eye look much larger.

Figure 26

Fifth Step:

Then use the fold tool to achieve the opposite effect of the expansion tool. Point a few times on your nose to make your nose shrink a little.

Figure 27

Sixth step:

OK, if you are not satisfied with the previous operation, you can use the Rebuild tool to undo it. You can return to normal by clicking the brush at the wrong place.

Figure 28

Seventh Step:

Continue using different brush tools to create, for example, you can make your ears larger. Feel satisfied with the effect of deformation, click OK.

Figure 29

This is the use of liquefaction tools to achieve the effect, does it look a little funny?

Figure 30

V. Final effects

Before the three methods can be given to the children to operate, so here, it is time for adults to appear. Of course continue down the premise is that the children feel that this Haha special effect is cute and interesting, not ugly!

First step:

In simple deformation and manipulation deformation, the distorted image is copied into a new layer and is positioned above the original artwork. The edges of the deformed layers may not match exactly the original, especially the shirts. To correct this, we can use a layer mask and a black soft edge brush to mask the extra area.

Figure 31

Step Two:

We also want to see the effect of color adjustment on these images. The filter >camera the raw filter. Adjust the sharpness to 15 and the natural saturation to 10, click OK to apply this filter.

Figure 32

Step Three:

Layer > Create a new layer and name it "Dodge and Burn" in the New Layer dialog box. Select the mode as overlay and fill with a neutral color (50% gray). At this point we will create a new layer filled with gray, which is invisible because of the blending mode selected.

Figure 33

Fourth Step:

Use the Dodge tool to set the exposure to 7%. Use a large, soft brush with a big, focused highlight area that focuses on the cheeks, hair and eyes.

Figure 34

Fifth Step:

Switch to the burn tool, the exposure is still set to 7%, this is mainly to aggravate the shaded area.

Figure 35

Here, we have finished the Haha effect with Photoshop to see the final picture.
