how do you make existing pictures look like this:

seriously that looks awesome.
trying to get that effect with these:

The last one is so awesome with the visor reflection. I want to at least adjust pictures to make it look like these.
-
Quick & dirty: cut the brightness, up the contrast, and maybe up the saturation just a bit as necessary if the contrast doesn't make the colors pop enough to suit you.
-
true. was just gonna say that.
i did this Q&D in 60 seconds. with time...it can look nice. my way all depends on what color you want to remove.

(http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h137/KingslyZissou/fast2.jpg)
once this is set..is when i like to mess with saturation..and contrast.
-
I dunno, the color just pops out in the husker pics. It just doesn't look real, which looks so cool.
-
close up shots will like that. plus...red is excellent for this.
ill do one of jarsh in purp.

yea, but check out the grass and the sky. even their skin shows a lot of color (even though black is absence of color LOL!!!11)

So here's my quick try:
(http://www.machafamily.org/temp/test.jpg)
I did pretty much what's been said, but used the curves tool to adjust contrast, instead of a contrast slider.
I also added a touch of edge sharpening to make the whole thing pop a little more. Not great, but you get what you pay for.
-
Notice how everything in the background of the NU pics is blurred. Only the player is in sharp focus. That's the key.

Not really true of the first one.

i had this one blurred. red is key. blur is too...
i dont think jarsh is black enough.
(http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h137/KingslyZissou/freeman-1.jpg)
-
im telling you..
they desaturate/ maybe a duotone...and then go back in over the red and either overlay or some other crap.

Yeah, I got caught up on those last ones and forgot about the first two. It's gotta be more than just the red, though. We should be able to get a fairly close approximation with purple.
-
with more time, it can be prefected.
-
the #30 nubb pic is just so sick.
i didn't think these were real at first, honestly.
-
i want to get this down, next year i want to go to the open practices and get nubb-style spring practice pics.
-
yeah. its the best.
they combined a few filters ( on top of the other stuff) to make it look borderline illustration photo.
we'll get it down.

Stunner - try masking off your foreground object then *really* pulling down the brightness and *really* upping the contrast; if you're using the newest Photoshop try setting the brightness/contrast controls to the old style, they'll give you much "harder" results.
They also used a mask on the two players in the foreground, the halo is pretty sloppy. The grass & sky colors are too saturated to be natural too so I'd imagine the worked the whole shot over then masked off the players and really dialed in the colors there. They might even have masked the jerseys off separately and upped the saturation on them even more. Those sorts of multiple passes will give you that kind of unnatural result without making the whole background look garish.
-
I reposted mine.
The road uni's aren't the best for this.
This really isn't my bag, ECN will get this nailed pretty quick I think.
I really do think that they're using a pretty healthy USM mask over the subjects.

that's pretty good though. want to work on it but doing hw :curse:

Here's a quickie, did it in Irfanview in less time than it takes Photoshop to load on this machine. :lol:
Original:
(http://assets.espn.go.com/media/apphoto/115cc715-073c-45db-92eb-448645b65dab.jpg)
Gamma: original 1.00, reduced to 0.72
Contrast: original 0, increased to 28
Saturation: original 0, increased to 41
(http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d163/YetAnother1/temp/test.jpg)
There's too much contrast and color in the background though, it distracts you from the players in the foreground. I'd have to go into Photoshop & mask the players off to fix it but you get the idea.
Here's another with a similar gamma change but doubling down on the contrast & saturation changes:

I'm assuming that a higher resolution camera would help too. Obviously these pictures were already retouched. There's a lot more texture in their arms in the Nubb pics.
Would like to show off LaMark's guns :love: :love: :love:
even though that didn't help the nubbs at all this year :nahnah:

Likely as not that's just a side effect of adding extreme amounts of contrast.

This might have been done by a nubb photographer, so it does seem like the roadies don't get much better than that, although that pic looks more real than the other nubb pics.
-
They haven't used the same post processing treatment on the pic with our roadies.
And it's not so much the resolution of the camera, but working with original full resolution files could make quite a bit of difference. And if they were RAW... :lick:
Whatever you do, I think you'll want to selectively saturate/desaturate:

Not bad at all other than losing the faces but that'll happen unless you take the time to mask them off and bring them up separately.

i think the background might be too light
-
You went quite a bit farther with your adjustments than the NU folks did. Too light overall IMHO and way too light in the background. I think if you mask off the background and adjust just the player you can get the same pop without the changes being quite so extreme.

Your look good but yeah, only change the players. Blur the background and make it darker.

I definitely need to get masking down, there were some parts that I wanted to have a little grainy, some parts i needed highlighted, etc. I'm getting close to where everything looks fake though. Just need some things smoothed out.

That's exactly what I thought... I got similar results by layering the image on top of itself; then changing the blending properties to color burn; dropping the oppacity of that layer down a bit; then masking out the areas that were too dark. If I had spent more time on it; I think I could have made it look really good.

Actually, no he doesn't. Not even close. And as a matter of fact, everything in this thread pretty much looks like dog sh1t. Does kono mean blind? I'm just trying to work out the HDR look right now and not worrying about easy details like "edges." So mind your own fuking business, you fuking asshole.

y'all try and change the image brightness/hue/contrast etc around, then go to filter > texture > grain > and set intensity to 0 and mess with the contrast > gaussian blur a little
i think it gives the picture a good hdr effect.

To get the effect like the Nubb pics, you need a camera and you have to take the same pic twce with different resolutions. You also use a program called Photomatrix. I e-mailed a photography friend of mine and he told me

Like this?
Has your friend done that before?
Couldn't you take one picture, adjust the pic into a different resolution, then use the program?
This might be my new hobby.
-

Yes. Those NU shots are not stills (which you would need in order to truly do the technique). So, which color changing graphic effects best simulate the result of taking the same picture with a different exposure setting?
This might be my new hobby.
Yeah, kind of addictive.

I think you mis-understood your friend. What he's most likely referring to is bracketing. You're confusing the word resolution with exposure. Some camera's will take a single picture but save several different images at an exposure like +2 Stops, +1 Stops, 0, -1 stops, -2 stops. It's possible in photoshop to fake this; you can get better results with a RAW image, but It won't be nearly as good as if you had the original images. There's a couple different ways to do it from a single image; Layer> New Adjustment Layer> Whatever you want to adjust brightness/contrast/saturation/whatever. Then just use the layer's mask to adjust where you want the adjustment layer to effect. There's other ways of doing it, but you essentially get the same results.
-
no what he is confusing is everything.
in order to get the effect that that nubb douche is using you must take the picture in RAW and then manipulate the contrasts and color lines on multiple exposures of the picture, then laying them all on top of eachother. its called High Dynamic Range (HDR), this can be done with CS2 and CS3 if you have a camera that shoots raw.
heres a few pictures of what i'm talking about...

Those pictures just blew my mind
-
I know what HDR is, I've been doing it since before I knew what it was called and before I ever heard of that technique anywhere else. Yes, a RAW shot is what you need for action shots; but landscapes you can do the same thing with any camera that allows you to manually adjust the exposure. All you need is a tripod. Take several picks at different exposures and it's cake.
But for the purposes of online stuff, you don't need a RAW image, you just need a properly exposed image and you can fake it good enough for anything that won't be printed.
