Photoshop Effect 1

Learn how to go create this effect in Adobe Photoshop.

Go from this:

to this: or



First off, you need an image. You can use mine, or your own.

For this tutorial, I used this picture:

.

Copy this picture into Photoshop. This will be your background layer.

Create a new layer, and fill it with #0000ff, which is blue.

Now set that layer to exlusion, with an opacity that is approximately 20%.

Create another new layer and paste/duplicate your background image.

For this layer, there's a few options. You can either set this to Screen, or Overlay, depending on what you want this effect to look like.

For the final touch, do another layer of #0000ff, and fill your new layer with this. Then, set this layer to exclusion again, but this time with 30% opacity.

If everything has been done correct and you chose to blend everything together as Overlay, your image should look similar to this:



With the tutorials that I teach, most of the levels of opactity, the blending modes, etc, are able to be adjusted as they are needed. As a graphic designer, it's all up to you what you want the project to look like. Similar to this tutorial, I can create two totally different images by setting the blending mode to either Screen or Overlay. Alike, I can also change the opacity prcentages higher or lower.
