Alex Persani - Photo manipulation



Alex Persani. Photo manipulation, retouching and general graphic design.

Persani’s work is a wide range of photoshop based skills his strongest point has to be image manipulation this is obvious as the majority of his projects are in this style. 
He seems to use a vector mask in his work more then any other effect or technique using this he will blend the images together with a circle and a feather of 20% this would allow the images to bleed together correctly.

Matching colours is something he is very graphically strong with. Using hue and saturation to gather the right feel for the two images and making sure that the images are correctly blended together.
His techniques for manipulation are very similar to the techniques you could use for retouching photos or even photo editing in general. 

Shown by the photo below using such tools and adjustments layers, high pass filters and redefine edged tools to make an image look brand new. Sometimes referred to as ‘Photoshopping’ the model or object.

Use of vector mask’s is something that I have used in my own project when creating backdrops and image’s inside of text. It is clear shown in this image left that alex does implement the use of vectors masks heavily in his work.
