Please read thru the entire tutorial before you start.
Let’s get started:
1. Open an image that you want to create a Hologram from.
2. Select your subject for the hologram and place it on a new layer using Ctrl/CMD+j. Use the selection method that you are most comfortable with. If you have a version of Elements with Select Subject and Refine Edge, this may be a good time to try it out.
3. Rename this layer CUTOUT.
4. Press the letter d on your keyboard to set your colors to the default.
5. Go to Filter>Filter Gallery.
6. In the Filter Gallery go to Sketch>Halftone Pattern and use the amounts shown. Feel free to season to taste for your image.
7. Add a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer.
8. Check the Colorize box and select your color.
9. Add a Brightness/Contrast adjustment layer to lighten the effect.
10. Create a clipping mask between the two adjustment layers and the CUTOUT layer by selecting both adjustment layers and going to Layer>Create Clipping Mask.
Layer Stack at this point:
11. Select the top three layers.
12. Duplicate these three layers by pressing Ctrl/CMD+j while all the layers are still selected.
13. You should now have duplicated three layers.
14. Right-click on them and when the menu comes up click on Merge Layers.
15. Select the top layer, go to Filter>Blur>Gaussian Blur and add a Radius of 5 Pixels – click Ok.
16. With the top layer still selected, go to Filter>Blur>Motion Blur Angle of 0, Distance 2000 Pixels.
17. Select the Background Layer in the Stack.
18. Add a Levels adjustment layer and move the Gray point slider to the right to darken the image.
19. Done.
Final Layer Stack:
Please post your starting and final images. Have Fun!
