Photoshop DIY

Photoshop effects…
For my strange photo, I decided to use a simple photo of fried eggs in a pan…

Image
I wanted to add animated faces to the picture to make it humorous. So, I took two shots of myself on my webcam:

Image

After my pics were done, I opened all the images into Photoshop.

Subsequently, in my webcam shots, I used the lasso tool Image to crop my facial expressions out.

Once I had the appropriate “marching ants” selection surrounding my face, I used the Copy shortcut keystrokes(Windows: ctrl-c)

Then I clicked in Photoshop on the phototab I want to add these images to…I hit the Paste shortcut keystrokes (windows: ctrl v).

I repeated this twice so I could import both facial expressions.

I selected (clicked on) the layer of my webcam pics I imported into the fried eggs picture; at the top of the layer menu, I selected a 70% opacity. I also changed the lighting effects to “soft light.” This menu is right next to the opacity option.

Now the upper layer matches the under tone of the egg. I also double clicked on the layer, to open the special effects tools, and added a yellow color to match the egg yolk.

This is the final result:
