Class Project 14 – Teeth in Photoshop
Overview
Daniel Scott
Founder of Bring Your Own Laptop & Chief Instructor
instructorI discovered the world of design as an art student when I stumbled upon a lab full of green & blue iMac G3’s. My initial curiosity around using the computer to create ‘art’ developed into a full-blown passion, eventually leading me to become a digital designer and founder of Bring Your Own Laptop.
Sharing and teaching are a huge part of who I am. As a certified Adobe instructor, I've had the honor of winning multiple Adobe teaching awards at their annual MAX conference. I see Bring Your Own Laptop as the supportive community I wished for when I was first starting out and intimidated by design. Through teaching, I hope to bring others along for the ride and empower my students to bring their stories, labors of love, and art into the world.
True to my Kiwi roots, I've lived in many places, and currently, I reside in Ireland with my wife and kids.
Hi everyone, it's class project time. I'm going to set you loose on a project we started in a previous tutorial. It's the one we did with eyes. So, in your '10 Retouching', under 'Class Project', there's a file, and they're called 'Eyes C'. We did the eye, so hopefully you've done that. Don't worry if you haven't, but grab this file, and we're going to work on the teeth.
So her teeth are perfect. We're going to have to be reasonably subtle with this one, but use the same techniques. So there'll be a Hue and Saturation Layer. There'll be a white Layer with the Blending Mode, and we're going to adjust the levels. I want you to see if you can get it so that it's hard to tell. You can make gleaming white teeth if you like. Maybe make three versions. Before, realistic, and then Colgate smile. And what I'd love you to do is, I'd love you to share it, but I want you to share the before and after. So take a screen shot of it as this, and your version, that you've finished. And maybe the super cleaning white version if you want to as well. I'd love to see it, drop it in the assignments or in the comments, or tag me in social media. All right, I will see you in the next video.
