Photo Editing Sketch Effect Using Mobile Apps
Using sketch filters on photos in my layouts is one of favorite photo editing tools.
I use various apps on my mobile phone to convert my photo in to sketched renditions of the image.
- There are a huge variety of apps for sketches, both for Android and iOS.
- Your selection will be based in the depends on the quality and type (people or buildings) of photos you have.
After I have converted the photo to a sketch on my phone, I import into Photoshop and make further edits and adjustments.
In this layout, I used Photoshop to combine the original photo with a sketch from the iOS app Sketch Master.
1. Prepare Image
- Select a photo, open into your work space.
- Duplicate the image or save as a document, before closing your original photo.
- Change the name of the Background layer to photo (this will unlock the layer). Double-Click on the Background layer label and rename.
2. Duplicate the Photo Layer
- Duplicate the photo layer. Press CTRL/CMD + J, and move the copy to the top of your layer stack.
- Set the Blending Mode to Overlay and the Opacity set to 42%
3. Add Sketch Layer
- Open and move the version of the image on top of the layers stack in the Layers Panel.
4. Apply Layer Adjustments
- Adjust the Opacity of the sketch layer as preferred and apply the Multiply Blending Mode.
5. The Layout
- Create a composite of the image and position over an artsy paper foundation.
- Clip the the image to a FotoBlendz Overlay, apply Brushes and WordART.
This is the basic process to which you can add in different Photoshop techniques.
- Experiment with different Blending Modes.
