Tashia Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 The part I am refering to is the people flying from the top of the page. I am very new to PDN and tried to do my own take on it which failed miserably. I cut the subject in this case a wrestler out of a picture and pasted him into multiple layers. Then moved the subject in each layer little by little, merged the layers and tried to implement the blur tool. It didn't quite come out the way I had thought. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david.atwell Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 I think what you want to do here is paste the image where you want it on one layer, dulicate that layer, then select a very small sliver of it and stretch it vertically. Does this help? Quote The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior... A nameless, terrible thing, soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies. The most feared being in all the cosmos.

oma Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 I tend to do as david said but use 3 layers the top is original image second I stretch outside of canvas a bit bottom layer is a dup of #2 and I add motion blur.

david.atwell Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Oh, good idea, Oma. Yes, motion blur (and perhaps Zoom Blur) will help.

It looks like you'll need them both to pull that off. :wink: Quote ---- Gallery | Sig Tutorial | deviantART | Sig Videos | PhotoBucket ----D E S T I N Y Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew D Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Thanks. I will give it a shot tonight after my little one goes to sleep. Well, I've had a little idea of how you could do it. 1. Get your image. Make sure the "background" of the image is transparent. 2. Duplicate that layer. 3. Blurs > Zoom Blur on the bottom layer. Do something with the center near the bottom, with a low distance value. 4. Duplicate this layer, then Ctrl+F. 5. Repeat until happy. 6. Merge down all the blur layers. 7. Use sharpen or some other blur to create the lines effect you wanted. 8. Flatten, and your done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tashia Posted December 24, 2007 Author Share Posted December 24, 2007 This was fun! I still have a lot of learning to do but it actually came out much better than I thought it would. Andrew your tips really helped a lot too, thanks. So, how did I do? CC always welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
