Calling all Picture Editing Pros!!!

[VoidLivesOn]

I have no cool programs and no patience to fuck with this so I was wondering if anyone could help me out.I'm in the process of making a short film and I wanted a cool like "logo" thing for my "production".

Its called Not So Nice Films.I have a picture of a bottle cap (see below) and I was wondering if anyone could blow it up and make it look like Not So Nice Films was printed along the side of the bottle cap.Every word dosn't have to be readable aslong as people get the jist that Not So Nice Films is printed along the side of the bottle cap.

It would be very much appreciated for this or any other ideas!

buummmpp?

[slipknotpsycho]

good enough?

[VoidLivesOn]

Thats what I mean but could ya make the text bigger and instead of productions put films? that should give yo more room anyway.

THanks!

[slipknotpsycho]

i will as soon as i have a chance, i was on my wife's comp doing that, so as soon as i can get on her comp again i'll fix it.

Hey, a couple things.

Is it alright if I use my own bottle cap, and must it look like a bottle cap? You want the ridges in the bottle cap to be in the name too? It can be done, but it'll take me a few days or maybe a week seeing as how this is my backburner project (no offense). What font do you want?

You know, the top of the bottle cap would be much easier. I'll do the side of it, just answer these questions.

[VoidLivesOn]

Man you can do whatever you want to your hearts content, just as long as you feel like helping out! As logn as its not a burden or anything.

Thanks!

[VoidLivesOn]

[slipknotpsycho]

[justinsane]

[VoidLivesOn]

I'm feelin that one justin i'll keep it until I see what this graph dude has to offer.Thanks for your help everyone!

[slipknotpsycho]

just as a side note i had assumed you wanted it to look like that's how the bottle cap came (you know how most have that serial number or w/e the fuck is on it) i'm nto very artistic but i can be a god when it comes to paintshop pro or just about all computer related things, i just have to be tol dexactly what the person wants. i'll let other people post thier ideas, if you want something more specific and you have it pictured in your mind contact me and i can do what you want, you just have to be really specific... lik ei said i'm not an artist, i'm just good iwth technical stuff.

side note: never expect a good job from we when stoned/high or fubar'd in any other way, which the half a bar is kicking in... so yea. i'm done for the night. btw i just started getting into editing videos too
kainsrealm.com/fuctup.html
there's the link if you wanna see my work (broadband [dsl, cable or other high speed internet] strongly suggested)
my little name is "Fuct Up Productions".

So here's these. If you wanna get any more specific with what you want we can do that, too. If you choose any of these I'll cut out the background. I would have done it before I posted them, but I'm pretty damn lazy.

I don't know why I spent 1/2 hour doing this. Just another Photoshop addict.:mad:

[minnesota man]

I like Graphs 3rd one.

[graph]

Hey, I like that one though. In a few minutes I'll go back and try it that way, putting the film on the bottom. By the way, what bevel did you use? And have you ever used the pen tool to cut things out? It looks like you used the brush, and the pen tool doesn't leave things looking so bumpy. I'd check around for a faq for it, before I started using the pen tool everything looked so bad when cutting things out.

[minnesota man]

Thanks for the tip on the pen. I'll check it out.

[graph]

Alright, didn't know if you did it through the filters or not. I used blending, too. By the way, your photoshop is better than mine.

[C4nn4Bliss]

haha props on you guys for helpin this dude out, need more people like that around here

[Dr. Dro]

Heres one...

[graph]

is that blambot fonts?

[Dr. Dro]

Heres one...

when i actually need to cut shit out to paste on other pics (pics of people on cool backgrounds for instance) i use point to point cutting, then go back and manually 'weave' the layer into the background, can be extremely consuming (one good picture could take hours upon hours this way) on time, but i think the results are well worth the effort... but psp does offer other tools to help with these types of things that aren't so bad, i'd just rather be in complete control of the picture, instead of just mostly in control. :thumbsup:

oh yea to the video editors out there that haven't tried this method, unless you have some knowledge of how to blend pixel by pixel so it doesn't just look 'copied and pasted' and some serious time on your hands i'd suggest not trying this method... btw i vote for your 3rd one too...

not to put anyones hard spent time down but any one of thoughs logos will make you look very amature...somone needs to google Photo Shop tutorial on bump maping so it looks printed onto the plastic, and also to fill in the worn ink already on the cap.

[Demon420]

Here you go...

That's... what I did. Try making a better one with the picture given. You'll see that since it's a jpeg and not png, and is such a small image, it breaks down into pixels very quickly. I bump mapped as best as I could, but again, the image is very small so I just gave up on it. Now, I could take a day out of my life to take my own picture of a bottle cap and make a professional-looking logo, but it would take about a day and would require payment of some kind.

[t3chyo]

I gave it a shot...

[minnesota man]

Yeah, I like the low budget horror film effect. The pic is too low res to make anything professional. So, VoidLivesOn, what is this for, you make movies or something? I googled Not So Nice Films and believe it was used to describe the movies they made Alex watch in "A Clockwork Orange".

[Kryzco]

i like them, i use photoshop myself and I'm thinkin of takin a stab at it, but I'm stoned:smokin:

[graph]

well yeah, but the tracing effect makes it not look real.

[VoidLivesOn]

DUDE THAT IS SICK!!!!!

Holy shit man, you are so good at that, jesus christ.Thanks alot!

Well like I'm not big time or anything.I got a pretty good editing program, with a camera and some okay ideas.By tomorrow I should have my first project done.I'll post it here for ya.Thanks for the help though.You know just a high school kid with nothing else productive to do.

[VoidLivesOn]

haha props on you guys for helpin this dude out, need more people like that around here

No shit right? I can't believe these guys actually took there time to try this.I'm pretty flattered.

[Genuine17]

you should photoshop one of the bottle caps onto a bottle and the bottle should say not so nice films

[Genuine17]

i just used paint, to show what i meant by my previous post

Hey Minnesota Man I could use the help of someone with good photoshop skills for my little "productions".I was wondering if there would be a way I could get ahold of you for questions of favors? I plan on using your bottle cap thing in my next short.

[minnesota man]

Sure thing.
