This was my first photoshop project and I have to admit I was pretty happy with the result but to be fair I was following the idea from a great youtube channel (Link to video below).
The project was overall easy to accomplish except for the fact that the original photo was using a man jumping in what I assume was a trampoline in conjunction with a camera that had adjustable shutter speed to make the nice floating effect….well since I didn’t have a trampoline nor a “decent” camera….lets just say I needed to get creative.
After thinking for a while I had this “great” idea of taking two photos of me standing on a bench and the pretend each leg was floating at a time. This ended up working with a little bit of photoshop magic even though it wasn’t perfect because you could notice that the shirt wasn’t floating…but hey if it ain’t broke don’t fix it or something like that…sure.
And with a few touches, it came out like this….
The next step was to add the background, the planets, the effects, and I must admit that after this project I became a fan of orange and blue lighting combinations. By the way, a fun fact about this project is that instead of a picture of the sun there is a picture of Venus in its place.
