First Tutorial

[madpuppetier]

Okay so I've never made a tutorial before but someone requested me on a forum how to make this:



Hey! This tutorial will show you how to make with animation and graphic included =3 This is my first tutorial so I hope it's helpful and easy to follow. Some ideas from yumei_k


You'll need:-
-two base picture
-photoshop
-imageready

1. Open your two bases, crop them and sharpen them.



2. Duplicated the base, desaturate (Ctrl+Shift+U) then sharpen that layer too. Set it to around 30% opacity.



3. Take this texture and set it to screen above all layers on both pictures.


4. You should get something like this~


5. Create a new layer above all layers and fill it with #1800E7. Set this layer to Exclusion with the opacity 29%.

6. Add some tiny text and other text to both pictures.



7. Take one of the pictures you've created and merge the layers together (Ctrl+Shift+E). Duplicated the merged layer.

8. Go to Filter -> Blur -> Motion Blur and fill in these settings:
Angle ~ -40
Distance ~ 20

9. Repeated steps 7-8 with the other picture.

10. Open a new document and paste the four pictures (the two non-blurred and the two blurred). Save as a PSD document and open up ImageReady!

11. Make all the layers hidden. Place the animation sequence as shown:
1. New Frame ~ Reveal Yunho "Smile for the" (2.0 sec)
2. New Frame ~ Reveal Yunho "Smile for the" blur (0.1 sec)
3. New Frame ~ Reveal Yunho "Camera" blur (0.1 sec)
4. New Frame ~ Reveal Yunho "Camera" (2.0 sec)
5. New Frame ~ Reveal Yunho "Camera" blur (0.1 sec)
6. New Frame ~ Reveal Yunho "Smile for the" blur (0.1 sec)



12. Save Optimised as .gif and voila you have it!
