How to go from this
to this
Basic photoshop knowledge is required for this. It doesn't start from zero.
Don't be afraid to try it. It looks more complicated than it actually is ;)
Open the Cuddy and House picture.
Duplicate your base and call it „CuddyHouse“.
Create a new Hue/saturation layer above it and reduce the saturation to -60.
Make a new Color Balance Layer and put the following settings:
Midtones: 0 0 +38
Highlights: 0 0 +21
Open this Red Bull picture : link and copy and past it into your image. The new layer should be above all the others.
(make it smaller, erase the greyish background with the eraser tool.)
Stay on the red bull layer, make a right-click and go to blending options. Select outer glow, choose a white color and change the size to 68 px. Click okay.
Then open this water-picture link and go to Image>Adjust>Invert so it becomes black-ish.
Then copy and past it in your image.
Set the layer to screen and put it at the bottom of the red bull. Erase the parts of the water that don’t fit so well
.
Right click on the CuddyHouse layer and select „Merge visible“. Now you have one layer left.
Crop your image to get rid of the spoiler tv sign.
Duplicate your layer and choose the Burn tool. (it’s on the left toolbar)
Select midtones and 19% and go over all the shadows/dark places in your picture to make them even darker.
Then choose the dodge tool, set to highlights 14% and go over all the bright spots in your image.
Duplicate your base layer, drag it on top and set it to Overlay 41%.
Reduce the three layers to one layer again.
Create a new fill layer >solid color> and choose white as the color.
Go to Filter > noise> add noise Choose 85% and Gaussian distribution.
Then choose Filter >Blur > Motion blur and set to 35% and 80 px. Set this layer to hard light.
Go to image> adjust>levels and set to: 187 0,85 236.
Reduce the layers to one layer and crop the image again.
;) Yup that was it
