Strangely Distorted

This final project was for Adobe Fun With Photo Shop Elements chapter four. I used a picture that I took of my friend just looking normal but using the techniques that I learned in this chapter I was able to make her look strangely distorted.


1.After opening the picture of your choice choose filter from the top tool bar then distort then pinch as shown in the above screen shot. This is just an option you have the choice to use. For my picture I chose not to use this effect.


2.Choose the eliptical marquee tool to select her right eye including her upper and lower eyelid. Again select filter, distort,and pinch.


3. After a box like the one showed above appears use about 65% or any amount you prefer to pinch the eye.


4.Next drag the selesction marquee over to the other eye(you can do this with the selection tool active). Now choose filter,distort,and spherize tools.


5.The setting is about 75% for the amount and choose vertical only for the mode.


6.After selecting the nose including some of the upper lip and cheeks with the lasso tool. Again choose filter,distort,and twirl.


7.When a box like the one above appears adjust the settings to make her look like she has a broken nose.


8.After selecting the mouth along with some exra skin around it and apply the filter,distort, and wave tool.


9.When a box like the one above appears just play with the different sliders to achieve the effect you like best to make her mouth look distorted.


10. Now your done and the finished results make you look twice at the picture you have created.
