From magical to explosive

My sister took some promotional photos of a magician named Drew Worsham recently, she ended up with some sweet shots. Anyways I was playing with light effects in Photoshop and of course wound up using some of her photos, I thought it turned out well.

 

You can see the original on flickr.

Magic in a hat

Posted by Jay in lighting , fonts'n'text

Like I said earlier, I end up using my spare time to try out new stuff on my ongoing projects. This one was while I was playing with lighting effects in Photoshop. I didn't have time to create a top hat so I borrowed it from Very Icon who make some amazing icons. They saved me probably 30 min of work, which is a lot these days.

 

 

 

Anyways, it's fun to play with text and light, this based off a great tutorial by abduzeedo. The text in this one is taken from the old front page article on the Live Charge website. Live Charge, in case you're wondering, is what I do in my spare time when a video camera is available, fun skits and the like.
