Another one for Get Pushed 271 - my partner this week, Liz Hammond, gave me an alternative challenge to follow a Gavin Hoey tutorial and reproduce one of his techniques. I've tried his filmstrip tutorial before and failed as my version of PSE 11 doesn't have a warp tool and although I could make the filmstrip, I couldn't work out how to give it any curves. So I also Googled 'how to make a filmstrip using Elements' and found a version on the internet that used Elements 10 and instead of the warp tool, used the shear tool and distortion with free transform. And it worked ...
The colourful little houses are part of the artworks for the Folkestone Triennial and are designed by Richard Woods. I thought they fitted the quirky theme:)
@lizhammond Hi Liz, this was serious Fun, thank you! I was spoilt for choice re GH tutorials, there are so many I want to try. I knew this one would be a challenge purely because I failed before with it. The curves aren't perfect but I was chuffed I found a way around it.
Another fiddle factor was making the little sprocket holes along the edges. I put them in individually in the end as I couldn't get them to go where I wanted them to.
An incidental hitch was my laptop telling me it couldn't possibly do any more Photoshop as the scratch disks were full. So onto a memory stick and off to the desktop computer:)
Hope this is acceptable to you, Felicity
Felicity, what great responses to the challenges. This just shows how perseverance and determination win the day. Much more than acceptable!!!! So well done. Love the Richard Woods houses very cool.
Hi Felicity. We are partners again for get pushed. For this week, can you do a photo of an outdoor night scene using natural lighting only. Possibilities could be light trails from automobiles, HDR, or whatever else.
Cheers. JIm
