Double Exposure Tutorial for Photoshop: Character portrait MY PASSION

In this video training I would like to welcome you and give you an overview of what exactly this training is about. I will also say a few words about where you can use this image style and what you can expect in this training. All working files are included in this part only.

It is not always necessary to work with studio flashes to create such a motif. A studio background is also not always required, as the whole thing can be created using simpler means.

Raw development is the first step before you start editing the motif. You will need a few important slider settings to start with a reasonable base material.

To ensure that the person in the picture does not look too restless, it is necessary to smooth the contours. In this case, we are working with the liquefy tool to achieve a neat motif.

A distracting or even unruly background quickly distracts the viewer. For this reason, it will be necessary to crop the person in quick and easy ways to bring in a new and clean background.

In this video training, free creativity begins by placing a new scenario in the created silhouette and adapting it.

For a more vivid and intense look, more tension is created by painting with light.

To avoid a hard cut in the picture and to add a little more art, the motif is enhanced with the help of artistic brushes.

A light and subtle overlighting will subsequently create even more excitement in the picture. To do this, we will paint in our own lights using simple means.

With color, you can still influence a lot afterwards to change the mood of the motif. Whether with a brush or a gradient setting, both methods ensure a quick result.

The Camera Raw filter is used to add the finishing touches to the entire image. Whether exposure, white balance or clarity control, all can be beneficial for a final image.

Practice makes perfect! The more often you practice this workflow, the easier it will become and the quicker you will be able to create such motifs.
