I'm starting a whole new invisible series as I was really inspired by the response I got from my first invisible one. (As invisible as music). The photograph above took about an hour and half to edit, unlike my violin one which took 3 hours. Anyway here some screen shoots from photoshop on how I did this:
To do a basic invisible photograph, is'nt too tricky. You basically have to take a photograph of the background (using a tripod), keep all of the settings the same and then add in your model doing a really simple pose. When just overlay the two photographs on photoshop and erase your model's face and hands to give the invisible effect! Sounds simple right? BUT if you wanted a more difficult pose (like I've gone for) its hard to just erase their face and hands because of the clothing. Above is a screenshot of how much I could erase before her clothes became a problem.
Okay, now our next move is to create what we think the clothes would look like behide her head. I did this by using the lasso tool to go around a part of the clothing and duplicate it and place it where I think looks right. I then had the head covered up, but the hands where left and I didnt have much of the dress pattern to work with, so I had to take the pattern from a different photograph that I took and lay it over the top of her hands. To make the whole thing look realistic, I had to add in shading and highlights using the burn and dodge tool.
