#manip tutorial

[takemyopenheart]

Your manips are so beautiful and REALISTIC it kinda scary, I'm curious how do you make them?? (If you're not comfortable sharing I totally understand you can ignore this ❤️)

TYSM, NONNY 💕 this means a lot! I really enjoy making them and sending them to the fandom immensely!

This is pretty much my step by step process (hope it’s not too confusing). If you, or anyone, has any other questions pls feel free to drop any q’s in my inbox or via dm!

tutorial:

Apps I use: Picsart and Snapseed (both are free)

The secret to a good manip is couple pictures, e.g. your FCs next to another person and I just overlay their face, which makes it easier.

Step 1: I search through Pinterest or instagram to collect the pictures I want to use. I try finding pictures that are somewhat similar in lighting, although this isn’t too important since that can be fixed later using Snapseed.

Step 2: Open Picsart and the main picture you’ll be using. In tools, choose clone. From here, you’ll be erasing part of or the entire face of the person where you’ll be editing your FCs face over. This is so no part of the other person’s face shows.

Step 3: Next you’re going to click on add photo to edit in your FCs face. This is optional, but you can edit the lighting so it’s similar to the other picture by clicking adjust and messing around with the settings there. This can be skipped though since the same can be done later in snapseed. From there you’ll click cutout to cut around the face, it doesn’t have to be perfect. You can flip the picture under crop if you need to, like I did here.

Step 3: Adjust the size and move it around where you’d like the face to be. From there, click on the eraser at the top. Now you’re going to be erasing around the face. Lowering the hardness prevents it from having a superimposed look.

Step 4: Resize the picture, movie it around, and use the eraser tool until you’re satisfied with how it looks. If there are any imperfections, such as part of the og picture’s face showing a bit, like my example, use the clone tool again to erase it. But this can also be done in Snapseed using the healing tool as well, so it’s not often necessary. Now feel free to click apply and the download button at the top to save your picture.

Step 5: Open Snapseed, choose your newly edited picture and click on selective under tools. This is where you’ll be fixing the lighting. The picture of Aimee was taken indoors, making it darker than the one of Tom, which was taken outdoors. In order to fix this, click on either face and mess around with the settings as you see fit. Feel free to use this in any part of the picture to your satisfaction. Snapseed is my fave editing app with many useful tools to explore!

And there it is! If neither of these apps are available for you, look for any other apps that provide similar tools to these. Like I said, the secret is finding the right pictures and simply superimposing your fc’s face!

If all else fails, I’d be more than happy to help you out!

Oi!! Suas capas são incríveis demais, sou apaixonada. Você é muito talentosa 🥺💜

Queria saber quais dicas você pode dar para melhorar a iluminação dos personagens e da capa em si (tenho muita dificuldade nisso :"))

Oláa! Muito obrigada, flor 🥺💖 Também sou apaixonada nas suas 🫂 então, depende muito do estilo da capa e de como é a luz do ambiente/cenário. Vou dar alguns exemplos aqui: se você estiver fazendo uma capa dark ou neon e o cenário usado na capa tem algum ponto de luz, eu recomendo que quando você estiver fazendo a iluminação, antes de passar o pincel em volte do corpo do personagem na camada adicionar (que é o que muitos fazem), adicione uma camada antes em sobrepor e passe a cor que você pegou do ponto de luz no corpo do personagem, só depois de fazer essa camada em sobrepor, você faz a iluminação em adicionar. Essa dica funciona muito para que o personagem pareça de fato fazer parte do cenário e eu particularmente amo muito, pois resolve em qualquer estilo de capa, mas acho que fica mais aparente em capas escuras, contudo, pode testar em todas as suas capas e me diz depois se fez uma diferença e se você gostou do resultado! Para ajudar, eu também fiz um tutorial pra que você possa ver na prática!

E esse é o resultado final do design:

Essa foi uma dica para a iluminação do personagem em ambientes/cenários. Agora, sobre a manipulação do personagem que também é considerada iluminação, eu tento deixar algo mais natural. Eu não mexo em muita coisa na realidade, eu apenas realço os traços do olho e toda parte escura, como embaixo do nariz, pálpebras, parte interna da boca, o contorno do maxilar e aquele lugar que eu não sei o nome que fica entre o nariz e a boca. Uma coisa que eu não gosto é fazer os traços de luzes, pq eu não sei como fazer ksksk então eu faço muito sutil mesmo e quase não dá pra ver, e eu faço com o mesmo pincel que uso pra fazer os contornos pra deixar natural também. E fica assim:

As vezes nem é necessário fazer essa manipulação/iluminação no personagem, pois os pngs combinam com o ambiente e não há necessidade de fazer nada, como nessa capa aqui, onde eu fiz apenas a iluminação do corpo e do cenário:

E é isso flor! Eu espero que essas dicas te ajude! E qualquer coisa é só perguntar e caso queira mais dicas, não hesite em pedir também e eu trago 💖🫂

Question, what's a manip?

Manip is short for manipulation, and it is a type of edit that involves altering the content of a photograph by adding, rearranging, reversing, distorting, or removing characters and/or objects from within the frame.

For example, this is a screenshot I took of Fizzarolli.

This is a screenshot I took of Barbie Wire.

I cut Barbie out of the screenshot with the cutout tool on the PicsArt app.

And "manipulated" her into the frame with Fizzarolli making a manip/edit.

I hope this answers your question, anon. 😊

don’t mind me, i’m just here changing all my tags again

Hey elz! Would you consider doing a tutorial of how you did the frame thing in this post: /post/724195624728379392/and-it-felt-so-nice-so-peaceful-and? It looks so cool!

hi anon! thank you for reaching out. i really appreciate it & you made my day! 💚 ily!!! for length reasons, you'll find the tutorial under the cut!

Resources used:

Photoshop

Vintage flowers pngs -> you can either google vintage/watercolor flower png or here are some DeviantArt packages [x] [x] [x]

Font: Avenir

Workflow

After you have made your gif as you would normally do, it's time for the frame.

First: place the flower

Once you got your flower pngs it's time to place them on your gif. Go on File > Place Embedded... and select the file. This is what will happen.

Now, click on that little tick (✓) on the top right corner, so that your image is actually placed.

Press the shortcut CTRL+T (on Mac: Command+T) to open the transform options - basically it is the same as the photo above. I tend to do it this way, because if I don't like the adjustments, I click on the ⊘ button. If you did that when you placed the image, it would delete the image.

So now, move the image, resize it using the handles on its corners while pressing shift on your keyboard to maintain the proportions.

Once you get a result that satisfies you, click on this button (highlighted in purple)

Now you can wrap the png, and make it "fuller", more natural looking, moving the intersection points of the grid that will pop up

When you're done, confirm.

Now that you placed your png, you can manipulate the colors. Click on the png layer and press CTRL+U (Command+U) and in this case you would adjust the Reds and Yellows.

And you're done!!!!

Second: the border

To make the border use the Rectangle Tool (shortcut: U). On the menu bar on top, set the fill as transparent and the stroke as white

Then drag your mouse and create the rectangle

Then of course, adjust it if needed - by clicking on the rectangle layer, the properties panel will open (if not, go on Window and check Properties).

Now duplicate the layer (CTRL/CMD+J) and make the original rectangle invisible by clicking on the eye next to it.

Right click on the copy and rasterize the layer -> this rasterized layer will be the one you'll work on (you keep the original one as a safe harbor in case you don't like the changes made on the copy).

Now, with the copy selected, pick the Eraser tool (E), reduce the opacity of the layer and zoom in, and erase the parts of the rectangle that goes over the flower. When you're done, set the opacity back to 100%.

Third: add the text

And that is literally it! Super simple and quick to make, and of course you can add as many pngs as you want to create somewhat of a bouquet. The real game changer is the Wrap thing you do to make it more natural, like a real bouquet!!!!

I hope this was helpful and if you have some further questions please please reach out! Love u!!!

E.

how did you learn to do photo manips and photoshop art? what are your favorite inspirations and resources, for someone who's pretty new to it?

hearing other artist's inspirations & stories is helpful no matter what

I didn't learn anywhere in particular! I mostly taught myself over the years by myself by messing around in photoshop, adding in a few tutorials here and there when trying to achieve something specific.

When I was 13 I was making things like these:

This was around age 15:

I didn't do a lot of photoshop for a few years, but this was when I got back to it at age 20:

And it's been nearly 7 years of making art consistently ever since! After that improvements got slower but I've been consistently learning new techniques and improving my workflow.

Photoshop's learning curve can seem a little steep and daunting at first, but even just knowing your way around the program and being able to use just 30% of the tools will let you do 70% of what you aim for!

In terms of tutorials, the ones I used way back then were terrible youtube videos with bad audio and old photoshop versions, so I don't know the best channels to learn the basics nowadays!

I myself have made more than 5 hours of tutorials that go through every main part of my workflow and explain how to achieve specific effects, starting with a 101 video that teaches you every main button and tool on the program. They're available on my Patreon, you have to sign up at the 3rd tier but you only need to do so one month, once you have access to the playlist you keep it forever.

[nonotnolan]

please make more stories about detachable heads stealing headless bodies T-T

I'm glad people are enjoying these-- I do love NBM / Detachable fiction, and there are not that many authors in good standing who are still writing that sort of content on Tumblr. (I am assuming this person knows that Metabods the website exists.)

Honestly, my biggest roadblock is creating the photos for them. I don't want to use AI to make them, and my photoshop skills are... shaky at best. But I don't want to just take someone else's photo manip, that's scummy too. So if anyone knows a good, NBM-specific tutorial feel free to send it my way. Or if anyone wants to give me blanket permission to use their manips (with credit) for my stories...? Hah hah, just kidding! ...unless?

[thornescratch]

this is a little out of nowhere but do you know if there are any primers for running a fic exchange? I saw you mentioned bring back a caps exchange like a month ago (which would be so cool). it kind of inspired me with another fandom, but I can't find any good guides and was hoping you might have some recs.

(Sorry for the long delay in reply. Clearly when I say I will get to something in a day or so, I-- uh, will not. Life's been a lot. Very sorry!)

With the proviso that @weaglerock did most of the actual hard work of the ALLCAPS Exchange and my role was mainly to make shitty promo manips (actually I still like this one) and nag people to turn stuff in and occasionally pinch hit--

Honestly, AO3 actually has some of the best resources for you, if you're planning to be like most exchanges and run your exchange through/post there. They've put together FAQs and tutorials and I think they're pretty straightforward and easy to understand.

Tutorial: Running a Gift Exchange on AO3

Archive FAQ: Gift Exchange

Challenges tutorial: creating and running a gift exchange

Signing up for a gift exchange

Reddit is also handy, and I've found a number of their posts with good advice: here, here (more from the user POV rather than the runner POV but good to think about, and this post were ones I referred to.

General advice:

I find if you have a random question and you can't figure out how to make shit work with AO3 or something, Fail Fandom Anon is a decent way to ask for help. Every post has a thread related to various Bangs/Exchanges going on, and you can post an anonymous request or question. Quality and quantity of response can vary based on when you post it (if the post is almost at comment limit and about to move to the next, you might not get much; just try again with a newly opened post), but usually someone will respond.

Most of the exchanges I've helped with were done before discord got huge, so I haven't utilized it as an organizer as much, but I've been in exchanges as an author where it originated from a fandom discord, and it did streamline communication to have a dedicated channel/discord for the participants. But mostly we used tumblr, gmail, and a googledoc for notifications and tracking.

Always assume some people are simply going to dip, for legitimate or other reasons. Shit will happen. It's super frustrating to delay opening an exchange because you're scrambling to make sure everyone gets something and that it's of decent quality so I'd advise definitely lining up multiple pinch hitters (and assume some of THEM will also bolt randomly) in advance, or be ready to do it yourself, or build in an extra time period of complete works being due before going live, or optimally, all of those things. Having more than one organizer/moderator is helpful!

Highly encourage people to include detailed author letters to accompany their requests. Have regular timeline check ins and reminders. Also, it's easiest to assume everyone's a newbie and err on the side of over-explaining. Have templates and formatted examples on hand for transparency; this includes examples of how you want people to make their requests and examples of an author letter.

Anyway, honestly my best piece of advice is to find a moderator who's already done this before and is good at all of it and will do most of it, and then just act like you've always been there and tag along for the glory. It worked marvelously for me. (But no, really, in the end I think the best bet for success is go back to an exchange from any fandom you enjoyed and felt was well run, look at their set-up/timelines/rules/verbiage, and then model after that accordingly. Obviously don't copy everything directly, or if you do, credit the those organizers.)

And, like, have fun.

Se você tivesse que escolher 10 capistas, seja para fazer collab, aprender mais sobre edição, seus capistas preferidos e etc, quem você listaria? E por que listaria cada um deles?

Puts, dificil é escoher só 10 kkkk mas ok

@chanyouchan com certeza seria uma delas, por causa do estilo que acho único. Acho muito bonitinho e fica sempre uma gracinha no final.

@nekomance Mano, acho lindo de lindo aquelas capas, principalmente por me lembrar bastante de uma banda j-rock e de filmes que eu gosto 😔 meu sonho saber fazer metade do que ela faz.

@taekstuff sempre admirei as capas dele, muito antes de tentar ser capista kkkk

@kodalindissima sempre babei nas capas dela e já usei o tutorial de finalização dela sim.

@trancyzp já tive o prazer de estar no mesmo projeto que ela mais de uma vez. Amo as capas da Natalia e queria collabzinha.

@chishikizi eu coneheci a Alanna pelo SU e ela é simplesmente maravilhosa em tudo 😩 man, só tem colirio no que ela faz. O icone poderia me ensinar e fazer uma collab hein.

@is-ateez foi amor a primeira vista quando vi as capas dela. Até então eu não via ninguém que desenhasse TUDO numa capa kkkk é muito talento.

@fairyeoll aceitaria uma collab e que ela me ensinasse. As capas são lindas, o estilo é lindo, tudo que ela posta me faz babar. E eu sou um desastre com clean que é clean e divertida kkkk mas ela faz parecer tão fácil.

@cryprinss Sempre achei as manips dela lindas e confesso que foi algo que me inspirou a tentar fazer manipulação. Aqui eu também digo a @xxpujinxx pelo mesmo motivo.

É claro que tem outras capistas que eu admiro que não tá listado aqui, como a siena, libertxxe, mocchimazzi, wiwitty, mercury e algumas que conheci recente (muita gente pra citar), mas iria ficar muito repetitivo kkkk todos muito talentosos e com estilos incrivéis e pra alguém que não tem um estilo próprio eu fico só na paquera mesmo kekekekeke.

Well after making the Beatrix manip, I decided to try one with Shizuka next. For the drool, I followed Brushie-Art's tutorial here to see if I could make it look better than my previous attempts and I gotta say, it came out pretty well in my opinion. Enjoy!

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew how to make manips on ezgif, please? I’ve tried looking for tutorials, but I haven’t found any quite like what I’m looking for.. :( it’s basically the edit where it’s two people in one gif. Please and Thank you so much!!

I think this is the type of tutorial you're looking for and if so it's called a crackship gif and here's another way of crackshipping where they're both on the gif not after the other but on a website called Photopea! Please make sure if the gifs are not yours to make sure the creator allows for their work to be used in crackships!

[lovelyamneris]

how do you make your manips?

Hey! This is such a kind ask I’m really happy you like my manips/edits enough to want to know how I do it! So basically I apologize for my voice and I know this isn’t what you were asking for but I decided to make you a quick little video tutorial and I hope it helps! <3

So here’s how I made this:

If you have any questions feel free to send another ask! I hope this was helpful!
