  • adn6691, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5I more reason to say that you can do anything with photoshop
    • bokchoi, on 10/11/2007, -1/+9I wouldn't say like the 300 movie. Its more just the general grittiness of some movies, still looks great though.

      You're right. Not even a mention of 300 in the tutorial and the actual title is "How to turn your photo into movie-like effect using Photoshop?"

      Slight comment abuse but read an interview with the cinematographer on 300 and he was mostly using iPhoto with stills to show the post-production dudes how he wanted each scene to look.
  • bigdaddyedward, on 10/11/2007, -2/+3Really good - about to try it in Gimp...
    • mikal, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2Let us know how it goes. Or even better, make a tutorial :)
  • nashara, on 10/11/2007, -2/+0The steps look a bit intimidating for those who never tried Photoshop, but the effect it could produce make it worth giving it a try!
  • billthemountain, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1a good lesson in getting deeper with contrast, color and effects, to at least lead to other inspiration
  • anewname, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2Experiment with the Orton Effect on your photos for a bit of the 300 look.

    For example:

    - duplicate your layer twice (for an original backup)
    - set top layer to screen mode
    - merge down
    - duplicate layer
    - Gaussian blur enough to take out details
    - set layer to multiply

    I put that in a Photoshop action that halts on the blur step for input. ;)

  • moviemax, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0Good idea to use for making photographed storyboards...
    Another idea would be to make an automator task of it.
