Funtastic Movie-like Graphic Design Effects

clipped from photojojo.com
photoshop photos for movie effects
This is the stuff that adds spruce and excitement to web pages - the odd image makeover based on step by step tutorials found ever so commonly on the web. These days it doesn't take too many steps to add character to a picture and these photo effects that match movie styling with Illustrator and Photoshop techniques are no exception.

My thinking is that when you combine original images with these techniques you create millions of variations that break the generic look the web sometimes takes. As an added bonus, the Photojojo site is both full of great graphic design advice and designed itself creatively with a fresh twist on header backgrounds born from a tea-towel pattern.

Great design teaching about great design - gotta love these web gems!
