Mondays imonsters remake work

Today I've been experimenting on photoshop by importing different photo's and changing the diamics of the picture by using the filter and changing them into an effect we like. Our favourite and the one we are going to use to give our credit opening the cartoon effect is 'Cut Out'
Also for the credits to work on the photo's we need to make the background photo image lighter, so over the cut out effect we will need to put more effects for everything to blend and work.
My original thoughts were to just use cut out and then change the lighting as it would be easier, but i don't think this looks as good as using other effects over the cut out.
If the other effects over the cut out still show too dark then i can still use this tool but i am pleased with how the images are looking without it.



Then started to play around on final cut with the still images and also a video taken on photobooth trying to get the same still as the image so we could play around with transactions, the favourite was 'Ripple' where the normal image turns into the cartoon image with credits using the ripple.
