Join Deke McClelland for an in-depth discussion in this video 461 Creating a bat-faced moon in Photoshop, part of Deke's Techniques.
Hey gang, this is Deke McClelland.…Welcome to Deke's Techniques.…This week, we begin to celebrate Halloween…with a timeless technique.…In this movie, I will show you how to take these bats…and combine them with this moon…to create this batface moon.…Isn't he just the most lovable guy you ever saw?…Don't just you just want to reach out and hug him?…Go ahead, you can.…Aww, you guys are cute.…Here, let me show you exactly how it works.…All right, here's the final spooky batface moon,…just so you have a chance to see it on screen.…
In all, we're going to be compositing a series…of three different files, all of which come to us…from the Fotolia image library, about which you can…learn more and get deals at fotolia.com/deke.…I'm going to go ahead and switch over…to this base image, which is the grunge paper file,…and I'm going to darken it up,…using a brightness contrast adjustment layer.…And so, I'll go out to the Layer menu,…choose New Adjustment Layer,…and then choose Brightness/Contrast.…And I'm going to call this new layer darkness…
