Challenge: Use ONE image from BtVS or AtS to create a graphic. Use it as many
times as you want, layered as you want, changing hues/colors, shapes...using pieces of the background as brushes or masks, etc...but using ONLY that image, plus your ingenuity and the tools you've got.
Info: I was originally going to use multiples of Jenny to make this more interesting, and then maybe bring in sections of background to blend, but when I tried a glow-y effect on the left hand Jenny, I thought it would be neat to do a comparison: a good and bad of the same image. For the left hand image, I used a round marquee w/ a feathered edge to copy, then made her a little smaller, added a copy of the same image with increased brightness/contrast and a slight g. blur, then adjusted transparency. I copied the full size Jenny so I could modify the background separately, and increased the contrast to give the green glow. Originally, I darkened the original Jenny and added the red eyes (copy/paste and hue modification), but when I was playing with the hue saturation, I really liked the red look. The font I used is Celtic Garamond the 2nd, and I used a fill of the original picture with contrast and brightness modified, and then added a glow. I also copied and pasted the left edge, with the metallic geometric edge, and added it to the right side to get a sort of a frame look. I think there are a lot of possibilities of this challenge that I haven't explored…I may have to do another at some point.
