hey you, can you tell me how can i reduce noise of gifs? btw, love you blog!!!

I’m so not an expert on this, I only make gifs from time to time but the general goal is to not use too many colors, otherwise that’s why it becomes obvious. So what you can do is:

  • increase the contrast (so you minimize the number in-between colors)
  • increase the use of the dominant color and minimize the use of the others
  • go black & white or monochromatic
  • reduce the number of frames 
  • delete some areas of the gif that don’t have to be moving (I use layer masks)

Your mileage may vary. Please go ask the gif experts for their advice!

Coloring Tutorial by charliecarvers; so some people asked me how I make and color these gifsets and I thought I’d give it a try and explain it.

Example of the end result:

Before you start reading I should warn you that this is quite a big tutorial and that you need some basic knowledge on how to make gifs and colorings.

Enjoy!!

If you Ctrl+Click on the little box that shows what is on the layer, it will create a selection the same shape as everything on that layer.  This works in Photoshop, too.

I don’t know how I lived life before knowing this.

Making GIFs less grainy. Photoshop Tutorial.

So I got a message asking me how I make GIFs less pixellated  and grainy. I use Photoshop CS5 but I haven’t done anything that can’t be done in any other version. I don’t really do anything special and this isn’t going to be a tutorial on how to actually make GIFs. There are hundreds of tutorials on Tumblr on how to make GIFs with Photoshop, so a quick google should find you one :) This is really image heavy and long as fuck, just a warning. So here we go! :)

tips for editing manga? :)

Sure ヽ(*・ω・)ノ

  • first i always crop and resize the cap
  • if you’re cropping specific scene make sure that there are no borders left (even the thinnest ones are visible and it wont look good so color them white if you dont want to crop)
  • when you’ve resized it, add some brightness, contrast and gradient map
  • you can add a bit light grey gradient ma[ instead of black and white, if you like (this is the difference)
  • after you add those adjustment layers you’ll see that cap looks too over sharpened (like this)
  • so dublicate your mangacap layer and apply topaz clean (those are my settings)
  • and lower opacity (SEE THE DIFFERENCE???)
  • then you’ll notice that the text looks ugly so erase it with white brush tool and write it over again
  • you’ll need one of those fonts
  • and if you dont have topaz, you can download it here and scroll down to see the installation guide (but you’ll need uTorrent to download that first, it’s free and 100% safe)
  • hope that helped omg

the best advice i can give you for photoshop as it applies to tumblr graphics.

  • DO sharpen gifs. DON’T sharpen caps for picspam.
  • when making picspam, cap choice is just as important as coloring. 
  • when you color, enhance what is already there. don’t take a yellow cap and try to turn it purple. it’s going to look ridiculous. 
  • it’s better to under saturate that over saturate.
  • that tumblr trend with the chopped words lazy minimalism scratched out face etc that you think looks neat and everyone is doing seems like a good idea now, but its not. its not a good idea.
  • start an inspiration folder and use it when you want to start something new. that doesn’t mean  ”copy other people work” but break other graphics down and do your best to try to mimic the effect for your own knowledge. everybody learns by imitation. you can make it your own. i’ve had mine for 5-6 years now and its the best thing i ever did..
  • if the typography looks questionable, it probably is. that goes for most things. trust your instincts.
  • don’t stress about the fact that you “don’t have your own style”. some people take years to develop a recognizable look to their work. its okay. you will.
  • ANYBODY can be good at photoshop. ANYBODY. theres no creative gene that makes you pre disposed to photoshop superpowers, and its insulting to assume that some people are naturally better because it invalidates the years of suffering they went through to be as good as they are. Your favorite graphic makers didn’t get out of bed and master PS. YOU DON’T NEED ANY ARTISTIC EXPERIENCE TO START PHOTOSHOP. photoshop is something that takes practice, but you aren’t broken. you aren’t hopeless. 
  • arial bold italic with a +1 or 2 stroke for dialogue text.
  • when applying textures, soft light and screen are your best friends, and (probably) lower the opacity.
  • if you use a popular texture, always try to make it unrecognizable.
  • put your textures under your color layers always. 
  • even if you screw up a lot, never stop experimenting. you don’t have to post every failure, but screwing up is part of learning. 
  • idk or just ignore me
