Artistic Portraits: Explore Digital Photo Editing

“We have already finished the course. I leave you here a review of all the elements that you must take into account to carry out your project successfully. Make a mood board from the likes you give on different platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest or any other social network you use.

Select your base photo and download the elements you want to interact with each other. Reveal your base photo in Adobe Camera RAW, and retouch skin and gaze with Photoshop's liquefy tool to modify shapes to your liking. Divide your image by layers: background, character and main plane. With the downloaded elements compose a new background. Cut out and play with parts of the bank images you created and create interesting interactions with the main character. Give light and shadow to these new elements that you involved in the scene. Experiment with color and texture with the Nik Collection filter catalog. Give the final touches and focus to those points that you want to highlight. Now share your final project with the community by clicking on "Create your project". Remember to share both the final result and the steps that have led you to it. I am looking forward to seeing your project and giving you feedback. Although I ask for your patience, I will try to access the forum as much as I can and what my professional projects allow me. Finally, I want to invite you to actively participate in the forum, not only sharing your progress, but also giving advice and trying to help the rest of the community. Thanks and see you soon!”
