Overlays, to put it simply, are one of the easiest and most popular ways to add additional elements to images that weren’t available during the photo shoot, or are too difficult to capture in camera. This is the beginner's guide to getting the most out of Photoshop Overlays. An overlay is a photo, typically in JPEG format, that can be added to another image as an additional layer. Using Overlays in Adobe Photoshop can generate extra depth, dimension, atmosphere, temperature, texture, grit, elements, energy, and mood to an existing photograph. Typically through the use of Blend Modes, these Overlays can easily blend into the base image without the need for any time-consuming masking with tools like the Pen Tool. This is possible through the various types of Blend Modes available in Photoshop that instantly give the user different effects from Overlays, usually created on a black background and then quickly blended into the image. Applying your overlays in Photoshop is quite a simple process at its core, simply drag and drop your Overlay into photoshop and use a blend mode. Knowing which blend modes to use and alternative ways of manipulating your Overlays can, at times, be a bit trickier. Don’t worry, we'll have a few approaches explained using the Jedi image in our example below. As a general rule, when creating quick comps, Dustin likes to separate his subject from the background. This makes it much easier to create foreground, mid, and background separation quickly. Many times, this is quick and dirty, making use of tools like “select subject” and “remove background” in Photoshop. These results can be refined at later stages in your composite.
