Mater as in tamater without the ta?



Sorry I had to, your thread title called for it.

 

whoops

fixed it

 

u shud motion blur the bg moreso then the actul car...and try u overdid it on certain areas of the car if that was all u wanted...the wheels looked fcuked

 

some more attempts

 

 

last one for the night...

 

Use motion blur..but seperate the car from the backgrond. usually a camera focuses on the car so the car isnt blurred.

 

much better, you need one of you standing on the roof so you can tell people you were Urban Surfing

 

good place to learn how to photoshop stuff.
that is where i learn to photoshop cars and such.

 

looks like your going sideways.
but there is no one in the car
and if you added a little bit of smoke it would look awesome.

im at a hotel right now in my laptop because i have no power at home and my computer with all my programs are at home.

 

^^that pic was done for practice purposes only

i'm not advanced enough to make that one more realistic yet...lol

so who wants to add smoke?

 

I was gonna say...! Some could fool me for moving..except no driver...

 

ill give it a try .. once i get power back at my house.


oh also on Digimods Tutorials.
go under Burnout... if you wanna give it a try for yourself.

 

nice shots calvin.

btw, could you get some info on those high-flow cats for me again?

 

which ones? you want 300 cell metallic or 400 cell ceramic?

 

1. Mask you car to isolate it from the background.
2. Create an object of you car with the mask.
3. Working on the background layer, use the motion blur effect, and choose the direction of the blur.
4. Feather the edges of the car object.
5. Flatten.
6. Save as JPEG.

You might want to save the file after you make an object of your car, so you can try and play with other blur, color, 3d effects.

 

Nice ... some pretty cool stuff right there.

 

Excellent example above!

Here's another. OP, what you need to remember is that good actual 'in motion' shots do NOT blur the actual moving object. Think about it; if the camera is moving at the same speed as the car, both will be stationary to each other. What will be in motion is the background and of course the wheels and those are enough to show the viewer that the object is in motion.
