Horror Poster Photo Editing

In order to create a Horror based image, textures and editing are required. We experimented with this on Photoshop with secondary images and different textures provided by websites.
This is the before image...
I figured i would choose an image of a close-up female with pale eyes so i could edit it and manipulate the colours which would allow it to stand out on the textures.
This is the After image... 
With this image, I only added one layer of texture which was originally a photo of leaves and earth. 

I placed this image over the original one and adjusted the saturation of the image to enhance the colours. I then chose an effect called "Burnt light" which made it look as though the leaves were on fire and had been illuminated. I then rubbed out the effect which was still on the background, I erased all of the effect everywhere apart from her face, neck and body. I also erased the effect from her eyes and lips which allowed them to stand out and look extremely abnormal hence the genre; horror.

This is another image before it has been edited. I have purposefully selected to choose an image of a female with luminous eyes as they will stand out on the textures I created
Before



This is the image after it had been edited. I had added 2 textures to this one and blended them in together by using the brush tool an setting them to different types. for example i changed both layers in to 'soft-light' as it brings the original image out and you are still able to see the shapes of her face
 After


These are the two textures i used to edit the picture. The finished product now looks abstract and scary. It looks as though her face is cracked through the rust.

  2. You can do it with Photoshop Fix photo app. This mobile version of Photoshop boasts Photoshop CC’s most popular portrait retouching tools. You get the main tools for basic retouching such as exposure, contrast, etc. And Photoshop Fix also offers a separate Light tool, which allows you to selectively adjust highlights and shadows.

    But the real power is in the Liquify tool. With it, you can smooth the skin and even adjust expressions to make your subjects smile. Photoshop Fix is free, but you will need to create an Adobe account.

  3. Your photo editing is quite impressive. Although many apps are available on the net that can provide anyone with the same photo editing. Snapchat has different inbuilt face-changing effects. Zoomie Booth is another app that will give the same horror look. Anyone can try these two apps for a horror look.
