The adjustment layer bit is crucial in order to keep a non-destructive workflow. The grain can be either generated by Photoshop’s noise functionality, but we’ll probably use a real film grain and/or dust texture for added realism, and the saturation and cross-processing will be done using adjustment layers. We’ll be exploiting the power of curves to accomplish some of that stuff. The faded look is the signature feature here. I’ll use some of my own images here as examples:Īs you can see, we get a “faded” look (“crushed” colors), some grain, and some strange saturation mixed with cross-processed tones. Let’s have a look at what kind of effect VSCO Cam produces Oh, and it looks like the folks at VSCO Cam like Thanks for sharing Simon! Loving your #VSCOgrid & your support! Very appreciated & nice work on this! Keep it up! I personally use Photoshop CC, but I’m fairly certain that you’ll have access to the same tools than I do starting with Ps CS3. So, our quest today will be to create an editing workflow that brings us similar results, but by using Photoshop. I’ve also shot images at the Cleveland Zoo, at the Aquarium, and during Signal Midwest’s WMC Fest set.īut editing images on a small screen isn’t always the best and most practical. Knowing that I don’t shoot too much film these days (despite owning a couple of Polaroids and an old Fujica ST 705), it’s kind of the closest I’m getting to it.īeen living under a rock for the past few years and don’t know what Instagram and VSCO Cam are and what they do? Here’s my Instagram profile, and my Grid™ profile. I’m a sucker for these often over-the-top film vibe images. Purchasing the whole set of filters in that last app was so worth it. But even better than Instagram is VSCO Cam. Well today, I want to talk about another one of my hobbies: photography. I’ve also used similar techniques in the tutorial I wrote when we released the Go Media building texture collection. I mean, just check the Lost and Taken poster tutorial, or the Do androids dream of electric sheep one. You know me as a designer that loves to create posters with a lot of textures. Welcome back to the design blog built by Cleveland’s finest graphic designers. Hey designers, attend our all-inclusive soul-fulfilling three-day design retreat, WMC: Off-The-Grid, this October 5 – 7th.
