Instructions on How to Use Our Digital Backdrops

The most important thing is not to be intimidated by new technoligy. Be creative! The possibilities are endless. Our most asked question is: "How do I use these things once I get them?" The second most asked question is "Are they hard to use?" The answer to the second question is most definitly "NO"- they are not hard to use. We will attempt to answer the first question here in the most user-friendly manner possible using the three most popular application programs- Adobe Photoshop , Corel Photo paint and Paintshop Pro.

USING PAINT SHOP PRO:


CLICK ON THE THUMB BELOW EACH STEP FOR A LARGER IMAGE.


STEP#1: Take your image against our green or blue screen. Green screen or blue screen works best because it is made specifically for this type process. If you do not have blue or green screen, any solid color such as white will work although not as well


STEP#2: Save the image to your hard drive and open it in Paint Shop Pro

STEP#3: Use the magic wand mask utility to mask the green or blue area





STEP#4: Cut the masked area out.

 

 

 




STEP#5: Open one of our digital backdrops in the same screen.





STEP#6: Copy the first image over the backdrop image and position and or size it to fit.




STEP#7: Clean up any rough edges with the eraser tool.
STEP#7: You may now place this image on any other backdrop on the CD that you wish,( it is a good idea to do several and let your customer have a choice).


STEP#8: FINISHED! Print your photo.
