Photoshop - building a better composite
Details
Composites
http://photos4.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/3/a/f/4/event_95175092.jpegIn this meetup we'll cover everything about making composite images that are completely believable, and all the little things that go into these images beyond simply cutting a subject out of one shot and placing it on a different background (we will cover the best ways to do that too).
We'll dive into pre-planned composites, shooting backgrounds, textures, and other elements specifically for later use in compositing; Removing fringing and color contamination at the edges; Blending your subject into it's new scene; Adding shadows and reflections; blending color balance from differing light sources; artificially creating depth of field in the background; layer blend modes, and much more...
As we usually do, we'll also send you home with instructional materials to dive even further into the subject matter, in .pdf format
Bring your laptop!
