How do I get sweat to look like Gatorade Ad?

W3Images · Jan 18, 2008

I have taken a picture of a senior and have sprayed his face with a water bottle to achieve a sweat look. Is there a way to isolate the sweat/water on his face so that I may try to color it to look like the Gatorade commercial? If so, what approach would you take to colorize it?

Any and all information is greatly appreciated!!

Thanks,

Wendy

Hey Wendy
I prefer by far the black version;
Don't know about the Gatorade Ad
But wat I would do
New blanc layer
painting your on the drops
duplicate the paint layer

Give the two new layers a different blending mode (experiment, changes on every picture)

To make it perfect, but it is difficult on such small drops, you make a copy of the phote under each drop (some bigger dropps) select them one by one, and process with filter - distort sferisize (under the other 2 new layers.
Success

That's it!! How did you do this? I can get around Photoshop pretty well, but would like some detailed instructions on this effect. It looks great!!

Download my Paint with Light 1 and 2 actions at http://www.atncentral.com . I used PWL 2 for this one.
1. Run action
2.Filter/Render/Fibers
3. Add a little Gaussian Blur (0.3)
4. Filter/Texture/Stain Glass
5.Filter/Sketch/Plaster
6. Use the Magic Wand on the background and CTRL+X to delete.
7. Paint out certain drops on a MASK.

8. Add a layer and fill with the gatorade color (you can always adjust this later with Hue/Sat.).
9. Hold Ctrl key and click the PWL II layer to select the drops.
10. Click the Gatorade color layer and click Add Vector Mask.

Google on how to make a displacement map.

I used a few drops and got the color from an MJ gatorade ad.

Forgot to mention...try different layer modes and adjust the opacity for the gatorade color layer.

I think this will get you there without having the water spray on his face.
http://www.turbogfx.com/tutorials/water_drops/index.php

I used the tutorial to put water drops on a flower image. I then changed the color of the drops to green and did some layer blending. I changed the settings in the tutorial to get smaller drops. Once you do it once you can see what settings will work best for your image.
Here is the flower (sorry not a face)

This is great, but I am using Photoshop 7.0 and don't have Filter/Render/Fibers. Can I get this somewhere, or do I need you use a newer version?

By the way, I already have your Paint with Light actions and love them!! They work wonders in tough situations. I never thought to use them for this.

Thanks,

I'm not sure how you would create the same effect in v.7 but it's time to upgrade to CS3. If you like to do these kinds of effects CS3 is MUCH better.

Here's a package I've put together that will allow you to brush drops wherever you'd like using the brush tool preset, layer style and action I've included. You could also run the action and layer style, then use a regular brush to brush color onto existing drops.

The zipped package contains 4 files:
1 - A water drops action (.atn file)
2 - A water drops brush tool preset (.tpl file)
3 - A water drops layer style (.asl file)
4 - A text file with instructions and tips

Here's the effect:

Using a regular brush to paint in green drops:

...or orange drops. To change color after running the action, just double-click on the color fill layer, choose a new color, and increase the layer fill opacity:

Here's the layer setup after running the action:

Using the brush tool preset and no color:

Clear drops are achieved by setting the layer fill to 0:

Colored drops are achieved by increasing the layer fill percentage:

Experiment with blend modes when using color fills. For example, normal blend mode will give a different effect than...

...multiply blend mode

More tips and instructions are included in the file:

Wonderful Pam!!! Thanks for the great information!

I have just installed CS3 and now I need some guidance. I ran the action the photo I wanted to add the effects to. Then, do I run the Filter/Render/Fibers on the PWL layer or the original? And so for, I am not exactly sure what layer I am to run the filters or use the magic wand and select out the background. Is there anyway that you could let me know or maybe create a Camtasia file that would document the steps needed to create this great effect?

I greatly appreciate all your help and guidance. I must also get used to CS3 as some of the features I use all the time are in different places!!

Thanks Again,

Wendy

Here's a video. Instead of making a grey layer use my PWL II.

http://www.planetphotoshop.com/beads-with-sweat-effect.html

You can can run it twice and make the stain glass larger and use a few of those drops.

Google for displacement maps. This will give the beads different shapes to match the contour of the face.

That is great!! The only problem I am having is getting the color. When I go to apply vector mask on the Gatorade color layer, it doesn't seem to work. I only get Reveal All and Hide all. Neither one of these seems to work.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

Wendy

cspringer · Jan 22, 2008

Ctrl click the sweat layer and then add new mask to the color layer. Try different color modes.
