FOM Open Day 21st March 2012

These are the images i used, i make it as collage using
http://www.photovisi.com

From the image, i using polygon lasso tool to clip the objects i wanted. and put it in the new file.
from the signboard image, i took the sign board.
from the star wars image, i clip the jet
from the both earth image, i take it as it is and place it top and bottom, to show like in between universe.

 

I use clone stamp tool and paint area and hide the text area, so i can type my own text over there to look like in sign board.

 

Almost finish painting over the letters and ready to put the my own texts.

I type the FOM and make it free transform to adjust the scale and size. some sort of transformation can not be done with out Rasterizing. rasterizing can be done by right click on the layer and select rasterize. this allow to apply all the transformation options in the free transform.

 choosing rasterize

 

Place the star wars jet and earth picture at top left and background. and placed the sign board at bottom corner.

 I was needed few more text to add in to sign board. so i select using polygon lasso tool to select a top part of the signboard  and duplicated to bottom of it and add small adjustment to it.

 I add the text 2012 on that and using Image>adjustment > cuves, i try until i get the brighter look on the signboard.

  I place the star image. scale it down and placed like popping out start from board. and i made it to many copies with different sizes.

 few of them i went made it horizontal twist to make it not look same.

 using the Image> adjustment > Hue/saturation , I could easily change the color of it. (need to click the colorize check box at bottom) i make it different colors.

 i wanted to add a light beams from space craft bottom arm. so i selected like a rectangle to look like light beams spread.  and applied gradient color from light blue to transparent.

 to that light beam, i applied, Effect > blur > motion blur with the angular side.

 

i use the eraser tool to erase the hard edges/ un blend with background.places.

 i copied the mmu logo and apply radial blur in the effects>blur> radial blur, it has an option of zoom, it makes picture look like emitting rays.

after adding the radial blur, i add a duplicate of the mmu logo over the shining point.

and here is my final image looks like.
