Let a simple photo to add color, change more beautiful fantasy method There are many, Poco photographer @ flowers want to photo (micro-letter huaxiang107) here to introduce a simple material superposition method, let us see how the operation of the bar ~
Analysis of the original film
After analysis will find that the original film color is relatively flat, there are some lighting effects and hazy feeling. But the film is relatively empty around, so you can add some material to create an atmosphere.
Selection of material
Sources of material can be found from the Internet, usually have the opportunity to accumulate some material map, when the weather is good to pick a sky, grass, roadside floret, may be able to use.
Here according to the situation of the original film selected in the middle of relatively empty, pattern of larger material map, so superimposed when will not be disorderly. (The principle of superposition of scenes: The local pattern of the characters is as simple and clean as possible.) )
Overlay of material
Copy the material as a layer to the original piece, according to the size of the original piece to adjust the length of the material to the appropriate size, but to cover all the originals.
Then there is the key step: overlay the material! The stack of material is mainly to use a variety of different layer blending mode to achieve their ultimate desired effect. The following figure, layer of mixed mode there are many kinds of, small partners can have a good time to try each of them, each model has different effects and effects, and the response to different colors are different, here is not detailed, the key is to try to be clear.
The most common patterns I use when stacking materials are:
Multiply the bottom of the material (the color will deepen and darken)
Filter color (the material superimposed on the color will be reduced light, lighten)
Superposition
Soft light (the material will be superimposed in a very gentle way, like a layer of blush but the pattern of the material is not obvious)
Strong light (the material will be superimposed in a very strong way, the pattern effect of the material is obvious)
Basically through these several modes, can achieve the effect, of course, can try other modes, PS is not care about the process, only care about the results.
Here the overlay of the material used soft light, multiply the bottom, color filter three modes, and according to the effect of the screen to adjust the corresponding transparency, you can see the following figure.
In the process of superposition is very important point is to use the mask to the character and body part of the appropriate wipe out, so that the main body prominent. After three types of superposition of basic to achieve the desired effect, the next is to do the adjustment of detail, so that the overall superposition of more natural integration.
The details are adjusted to make the characters and backgrounds merged better.
Adjust the original color saturation, contrast, make the color more vivid. For before the face and body parts and background color will certainly have a certain chromatic aberration, through the curve, optional color, color balance and other tools on the face and the body part of the adjustment. Keep this part consistent with the background tones and lightness. After the following adjustments, the figure:
Make the superimposed background whole look more natural and reduce the superimposed traces.
I think it is a very useful trick, is to use the soft light effect ha! Many filters have this effect, I use the color Efex Pro 3.0 inside the classical soft Coke, you can choose the appropriate intensity and brightness, through the soft Coke, you will find the edge looks softer, the transition more natural, Basically do not see the superposition of the obvious traces.
Finally, the overall sharpening and contrast adjustment is completed.
