Create a Surreal Miniature Portrait: Post-Production In this tutorial, I will show you how to create a surreal, miniature portrait using some photos that I shot from a previous tutorial on Tuts+. In the process, I will explain several photo manipulation techniques to create a realistic photo illustration. Let's get started. To learn how the photography for this tutorial was shot, see Nathan's tutorial in the Tuts+ photography section. You will need the following images to complete this tutorial Photos Open up the two background images and place them into the same document as layers. Make sure the image of the pressed key is on the top layer. Create a Layer Mask for the BG-Finger layer. Hit B to select the Brush tool and make a hard, large brush. After masking out the finger, you should now have a nice clean image of the piano and lowered key. Open up the model file and paste it into the document. Use the Quick Selection (W) tool and start to select the model's figure. Refine Edge will open up a menu with a bunch of options.

La pequeña comunidad de San Juan Bautista Tlacoatzintepec, en Oaxaca (México), asegura que la empresa española Intropia, una tienda de ropa, copió el diseño de un huipil de esta población indígena chinanteca, que calificó la acción como un agravio, además de un plagio hacia su cultura milenaria. En los últimos tres años, indígenas mixes, zapotecas y ahora chinantecos denunciaron que diseñadores extranjeros plagiaron elementos y patrones gráficos que componen y representan la identidad de los pueblos originarios de Oaxaca. El bordado original se trata de un águila bícefala multicolor y una figura geometría intercalada; y en el vestido de algodón blanco que ofrece Intropia a un costo de 198 euros se puede observar la misma figura, a la que describió como “Vestido Midi bordado con detalles en zig-zag’” (originalmente llamado ‘Vestido Midi Bordado Azteca’). ¿Qué opinas de esto?
Eye Sharpening - Photoshop Tutorial - 416 Studios With this tutorial you can create amazing, bright eyes within minutes. First retouch, adjust levels and do all necessary colour corrections on your image. With a Lasso Tool (L) select the eyes (hold Shift key to add to selection). Hit Ctrl+J to copy selection to a new layer. You can copy the whole layer instead of selecting eyes but applying the filter to the large area like this may take a while on slower computers. Use Smart Sharpen filter on the eyes, the choice of right settings will depend on the size of your file. Add a layer mask to the sharpened layer, then using a white soft brush on 50% bring back paint only iris’ and pupils to expose the sharpened eyes. Using levels brighten the whole picture and then copy mask from previous layer to select only eyes by holding Alt while dragging the sharpened mask (“layer 1” in the pic) onto the “levels 2” layer. Reduce opacity of the colour layer to make the eyes look more natural. And voilà, the image is ready.
How to Do Stop Motion Videos on iPads The Popularity of Stop Motion Effects Stop motion movies date back to the early 20th century, but they have seen a resurgence of late with popular releases like Wallace and Gromit, Chicken Run, Coraline and Frankenweenie topping box offices around the world. So, how do they do that? The premise is simple. Planning All movies need a story. Some people like to script out what they will do for each scene, while others like to create storyboards that give a more visual idea of what will happen at each stage of your movie. Materials & Backgrounds As we saw in the Angry Birds video above, clay animation, or claymation, is a popular form of stop motion animation, but it is not the only option for budding film makers. Backgrounds can easily be fabricated out of cardboard, poster paper, or fabric, depending on your needs. Equipment You don't need a lot of equipment to film a small scale stop motion animation, but there are a couple of things you might want to consider as part of your studio setup.

Presentation Design Tips - How to Make Text Look Exciting by Adam Noar When you are creating a PowerPoint presentation and want it to look as snazzy as possible, there is a lot you can do to make your slides shine with the brightness and glory of a thousand suns. You can add beautiful background textures, have perfectly complimentary fonts, or avoid the hassle of doing it yourself and just buy a ready-made template from the get-go. 1. Sometimes it can be a good idea to play around with the perspective in your slide—keeping your text front and center in the foreground all the time can get a bit stale. 2.

Here's How to Get a College-Level Computer Science Education for Free [AdSense-A] Yes, I’m a big fan of learning how to write code. I’m beginning to get back into it myself, slowly but surely. However, the problem at this point in my life is knowing exactly what I need to learn in today’s era of programming. I started my programming courses over 10 years ago, long before there was any such thing as a “smartphone,” let alone the iOS and Android platforms that have become such a huge part of modern programming. Don’t get me wrong, sites like CodeAcademy and Scratch are great to get started if you have no prior experience with object-oriented languages, but that’s not where I’m at. I’m ready to dive into the meat of programming, while getting a refresher on some of the core concepts that I learned all those many years ago (trust me, ten years may not sound like a long time, but if you’re not using your programming skills on the regular, you lose them). And, of course, a lot of that information is handed out free of charge. Introductory Courses Core Courses Systems:
