It's the reverse of our Heads Up Photoshopping assignment where you put your heads on other people's photos - take celebrities and photoshop them into your photos!
Just like with our assignment, careful selection of light sources, size of heads, head position, etc. apply to make it look good. "Graphic designer Everett Hiller and his wife host an annual Holiday party for their friends. Afterwards, Hiller sends out a photo album with famous celebrities photoshopped in for fun. While some may look a little fishy, others are near-flawless, as Hiller’s skills with lighting, white balance adjustment, and color really shine. Equally important is finding the right source photo of the celebrity. Finding the perfect shot to fit the context of the party scene requires a keen eye and the results speak for themselves." See more examples. "Have you ever been to a thrift store (think Goodwill or Salvation Army) and noticed that they usually carry a small selection of landscape paintings? Artists Chris McMahon and Thryza Segal decided to inject a little fun into these discarded works and give them a second life by adding monsters to the scenic landscapes. The trick is to match the paint originally used (e.g., acrylic or oil) and try to blend the monsters into the original scene as if they were always there."
I don't know why I like this so much. I'd love to see one snuck back into the store afterwards. See more examples here. check it out over here. It's for a Spanish car company. It uses a long series of tweets, all slightly different, to show an animation as you scroll through them. Using ASCII characters to draw ex. <3
This artist showed her drawings and how they evolved from age 13-20. Click link to see the whole progression. This reminds me of the book "Outliers" by Martin Gladwell, which suggests that becoming a master of anything depends only on 10 000 hours of time working on it, and there are no shortcuts. Whether it's a hockey player, a musician, a computer programmer, anything. Really interesting book. What is the music that you're listening to now that would have this effect on you when you're 70? Google is in the testing phase of "augmented reality glasses". There's a news article that explains it more, and also how it could be done with a contact lens instead of glasses. Will citizens of the future laugh at us for carrying our phones around? |
