Joe, Bailey and Kristin, 3D to 2D, Student Work



Joe Bushe

I used my “Masked Identity” photo as the starting point for my 3D to 2D Assignment. No imagery was used other than the original Mask photo. 
The process of this image’s creation is as follows. In Photoshop, I separated the figure and mask from the background, then used content aware fill to fill in the background where the figure was. The figure was then brought into Illustrator where it was live-traced. After live-tracing, I simplified the lines by removing all curves and replacing them with angles where needed. the roughen and tweak filters were applied to the lines to create a feeling of randomness. That figure was then duplicated and brought into the Extrude and Bevel filter plugin where the figure was exploded. The exploded layer was then set to the blending mode “hard light” so that the original abstracted figure could be seen underneath. Back in Photoshop, the image with the figure removed was duplicated. the top layer was blurred to 700px, and then gradated so that the ground could be clearly seen. The abstracted vectorized figure was reintroduced to the original image, given glow in the mask region, and given a much stronger shadow that was in the original. Thus the new image was created.
