Need some advice on blending and shading of faces

Post by scottb721 »

Doing a project where I am putting the faces of people from work onto faces of people in movie posters.

Wondering what tips or advice you good folk here have to offer on this.
Links to any tutorials is also very welcome.

Thanks very much.

Thanks Steve. Had actually been checking out the Extract Object feature over the last couple of days. Very handy to say the least.
My main concern was getting the skin tones of the doner face to match the original.
Poked around a bit and found Photo\Color\Color Balance seems to work ok if I play with the settings.

Cheers
