So after starting to use photoshop in class and mess with filters, lighting etc, it has been interesting to research to potential of the program. The actions shown in this article range from making the vintage photo look to re-coloring hair, or anything really. With photoshop, it is simple to alter moods by colorizing an image. Light blues for more vintage, calm looks and warmer colors for perhaps a summer photo.
As you can see from the photo above, many different moods are created depending on the brightness, contrast, and dominant hue. Creating burned edges and adding graininess/fadedness.
Sepia tone and black and white are simple not enough to serve as vintage now. Film distortion and grainy texture is a must. Even traces of finger prints!
