This tutorial is to help you learn how to create the illusion of
motion blur as easily as possible using masks and filters.
This technique works great with pretty much any kind of sports
photo. In this tutorial we will use a racing Jeep. Ok,
once you have your photo open in photoshop: 1. Make a
Duplicate Layer of the Background Layer.
(Layer>Duplicate Layer)
2. With the new
layer copy apply a motion blur filter. (Filter>Blur>Motion
Blur) 3.
Add a Reveal All Layer Mask to the Layer copy or the top layer.
(Layer>Add Layer Mask>Reveal All) (Your Layer box should look
something like this on the left)
4. Then select a
good sized paint brush, and wherever you don't want the
motion blur to appear, color that area black on the mask.
And if you mess up simply color that area white again on the
mask and the motion blur will come back. |
