I am trying to blend cut up pieces of a newspaper type thing into a person's face. I want the text to be visible, but not overt and blended into the skin. Any idea how to get this effect? I had tried by cloning the face and sticking the text between the two layers, which kinda worked, but i want a more "collage" kind of effect.

I've read how to fill text with an image by laying the image over the text and setting it as a clipping mask. But I want to achieve a particular effect, and my text also has a surrounding shape.
Here is a snapshot of my layers:
You can see I have a group comprising the text, and a shape layer (with stroke) to define a border. Both text and border are a mid-grey.
And I have set the group to "Color Burn" (over the image) to get an effect I like in the text. I would now like to achieve two separate things:
(a) retain just the text and border (with color burned image within), the rest as white (or transparent)
(b) retain the text and border AND the paler image within the border, everything outside the border as white (or transparent)
In both cases, it would be far preferable to keep the text as a single editable text layer, and the shape layer as an editable shape layer, so that I can tweak both later.
I'm not sure how to achieve either! The techniques I've see have the image on TOP of the text, but for my effect the image is UNDER the text.
what if I scan a article which has both pictures & text? Can I use descreen for only the picture part or do I have to scan the whole article without descreen and afterwards find a way to deal with the moire effect? Or what is the best way to do it?
And then some random Qs:
I'm not anyway professional, I just have some articles I want to scan and make a scrapbook. Is InDesign best tool for creating the digital scrapbook when I also want to print it for some of my friends? Or are there some better tools?
From what I read, did I understand right that 300dpi is enough for my pictures/text scans (like I said I also wanna make a printed version of my scrapbook)?
I would like a method of overlaying a text block on a picture and have the text change to a different (most contrasting) colour so that it stays readable. Is this possible - maybe with a Boolean function? If so how do I do it.

I've done considerable searching but can't find the link again.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI know the effect I want to go with for my project. Looking to create an older newspaper style clipping. Taking the picture placing it with text with the newspaper font, and making it look like an old news paper article. The yellow fade around the edges. I think I can figure out most of it, but to get that printed on old news paper effect is what I am striving for.

I've done things like despeckle, which helped a bit, and some other filters to get rid of noise and such but I was wondering if anyone had any useful tips for improving newspaper images? (i.e., get rid of the grainy look from the high dot content, just make it look cleaner)

I am working on a big project that involves black and white photography for newspapers. I haven't had any experience with using line screens over my images and am wondering how to do them correctly. I tried help in Photoshop but I didn't have very good results with the Bitmap and then 85 line screen setting. Everything looked very noisy (worse than a printed newspaper) when I printed the file out.

I tried this and despite my efforts being not quite as good as that produced in the video I was pleased with the result, as follows:
This is a cropped image created from a 'prt sc' of a Revit sheet view on which I had superimposed the png image over the jpg, having followed the instructions in the video. However, when I came to export the project to dwfx, the jpg file (the sky) disappeared leaving only the png image as shown herewith:
Can I not paste one over the other within the Revit environment, and get the expected result perhaps? Can the complete image only be achieved in a picture editing program?
oBaseView = osheet.DrawingViews.AddBaseView(otargetDoc, oPoint1, DrawingViewScale, kFrontViewOrientation, kHiddenLineDrawingViewStyle, "Default")oDraftView = osheet.DrawingViews.AddAssociativeDraftView(otargetDoc, oPoint1, DrawingViewScale)
I have one base view and one draft view created all at point1 with the same scale. It seems to me the base view's center is at point1. But not that of the draft view.
Just wondering how to overlay them to looks like one view with the same origin point. Or what coordinate I adjust, so I can draw on draft view, but looks like I was drawing on the base view?
Some additional lines are needed in drawing but can't get from projection of a model.
I'm looking to were in elelment 11 to convert a newspaper clipping to a JPEG picture.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been using Illustrator to draw up some 2D cartoons and then learning how to animate them and incorporate them into music videos. Small stuff like cute flying birds, suns, flowers, small characters, etc.
I have tons of Q's so maybe it's best to ask this question first ... are their good tutorials online regarding this subject (creating, drawing, animating cartoons to use as stand alone cartoons and also to embed over live footage)? I'm aware of Lynda.com but wasn't sure if they have this sort of tutorial.
If I've illustrated and animated a character (flower, or bird, or cartoon person dancing) ... what's the best way to incorporate that into my live clip? Let's say i have a girl singing and want the bird to fly across the screen, or onto her shoulder. Would I do this in After Effects? Or would I export from After Effects and then do the overlaying in Final Cut Pro (which I'm using to edit my videos)?
I exported a 10 second cartoon I made of flowers lip syncing to the audio track that I'm doing the video for and when I rendered, the background was white. I wasn't sure how to composite that onto my FCP video and so here I am....
I have an issue with a transparent image. So, I have an image of someone & I want to paste an image of a transparent heart around their face, which I also have. I open the heart in Paint.net & notice the checkerboard background, which means that the background is transparent. I then copy & paste it onto the image of the person but the heart still has the checkerboard background instead of being transparent & it is covering the face. Also, when I saved the heart image on my Mac desktop, the thumbnail had a white background but when I opened it in Preview & iPhoto, it was transparent.
PS: I have Parallels Desktop so I'm running Mac & Windows side-by-side.
Not sure if this should be a PS ? or not.... I have often heard if you can do it PS you can do it in AE.
I want to change the face of my text. Not color as with RGB selection, but with a pattern or texture.
IE: Billet Aluminum face with rivets or Diamond Plate look.
Normally I would matte it, but I also want to Extrude it For a "fat 3d look"
PS or AE?
Matte is not a renderable option using 3drt, Cheating it, using an alpha add mode and an alpha track is not getting a render. Is this a job for PS to create my text as a 3d text and then import it as a comp? Or will I lose 3d like in AI?
how to edit a solid with opening a hole only one face and deleting an another face..
I added a drawing file which has a coloured face solid,I put a circle on blue face and making a hole on this face,and I want to delete red face without exploding solid,after all this I want to mesh this solid with maximum 25 units.
There is any option to merge bottom face of pad eye and pipe curved face... Something like
1. Extrude face to a surface or
2. like notch option available in frame generator ?
N:B - pad eye is made by extrusion and pipe made by frame generator.
All I need to do is merge a circular face to a flat face, so both faces become one continuous face. Is this possible at all?
I have a attached a screenshot to show what I mean. Face 1 needs to be merged with face 2. This is so if I constrain anything to that face it will constrain to the entire face and not either the circular face OR the flat face.
when I anchor the layer face over the background face the floating selection disappears which means I cannot work on the layer face and therfore am unable to erase the layer face into the background face,this is on gimp 2.6
