My goal was to incorporate my friends into a game I really like playing. A friend of mine is a runner and so I thought it was a wonderful idea to use her in this project. I tried aiming for a more silly concept, which explains why there is a face on a sun in the corner and the three heads with the cars.
I am really happy with the results because it looks really silly. However, I think I might have put too many people or heads into the picture. Everything looks kind of crammed together. But my friends are all beautiful so it doesn't matter ^.^
Using tools and making image adjustments was very important. As you can see, the photo of my friend in a running pose was darker than the other photos. First I used the Curves to make the photo brighter in the darker spots. That made it easier for me to use the Quick Selection Tool to select only my friend and then copy her onto the Minion Rush background. Curves helped even out the lighting of the different pictures I used in the project so one head is not brighter or darker than the others.
Very cool project Vivian! Remind me of a racing game like Mario Cart! I'm interested to know how you made the score board in the picture?
ReplyDeleteOops, missing a picture. But the background is from a game and the scores were already on it ^^
DeleteThe project is so creative! It's very cute how you put Maggie's face as the sun. Just wondering, who are the people in the blue car next to Samantha's?
ReplyDeleteSANKS~~ One is my cousin and the other is her step-sister.
DeleteHAHAHA! The image is so cute, it makes it feel as if the video game actually has humans in them. The poses are funny and cute as well.
ReplyDeleteVivian. I really love it. It really clearly shows that your friend is in a video game. I think your concept is fun and cute.
ReplyDeleteWow this transformation is awesome, I like how you incorporated a game concept except with the theme of a real person. It sort of reminds me of subway surfers.
