- CLOUD 5513
- Folder CLOUDS / IMG_5513
- Set the blending mode to Overlay Opacity 100%
Step 8
At this point I want to make entire background darker. For this I will use Curves (Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Curves).Step 9
The dancer is still too dark so I will use Shadow/Highlights tool (Image > Adjustments > Shadow/Highlights) to make him brighter. As you remember Dancer layer is a Smart Object right now, so you will be able change lights and shadows if it will be necessary.Step 10
In this step, I will work on the lower part of the image, I will make it darken. Add new layer (Layer > New > Layer or Shift+Ctrl+N). Set the layers blending mode Linear Light and opacity 100%. Now use Gradient Tool (G). Use a transparent gradient on the bottom part of the image (Gradient color # 998f8a). Add new layer (Layer > New > Layer or Shift+Ctrl+N). Now paint bottom part of the image with soft brush, brush opacity around 30-50%. Set the layers blending mode to Normal and opacity to 100%.26 responses to “Create This Incredible Surreal Photo Manipulation of a Dancer in Photoshop”

Thanks for tutorial, it is very useful for beginners like us.

Where do we get the bricks, ground, clouds etc.?

It’s in the “Tutorial Resources” zip file (BRICKS / MAIN_BRICK.psd)

You lost me! :( I apply the color & gradient maps just like you said but no color comes through!
-
Why would you use a shutterstock copyrighted image that has to purchased? We cant use this dancers image at a deent size/resolution without purchasing it. Makes this tutorial kind of a fail :(
-
hmmm, Shutterstock hay? ……….no thanks! i’ll pass.

The overall picture looks good and you obviously spent much effort on it, thank you :). But some highlights and shadows of dancer, parts of ground, roots, and flying bricks are wrong :).
-
I always have a problem with it :) Thank you!

This looks good but is so badly explained. You have steps that are lacking info and steps with unnecessary info. You don’t need to tell us to “change the blending mode to normal and opacity to 100%” because that’s done by default. Some instructions don’t even say anything… It just says what image and blending mode but goes into no detail what was done. Good picture but sorry the tut is bad
-
Please tell me which part you do not understand, then I will fix it for you.
-
I think you are being too picky. Obviously this is not intended for beginners.
But I agree with you on the excessive info. You don’t need to tell people to set opacity to 100% when it’s already 100% by default. It’s annoying to read.
-
And kudos to the author for offering to fix steps. Most people would get angry but you stayed cool
-
I’ll keep that in mind! :)
