GIMP 3D Out of Bounds

Gimp: 3D

Work with Gimp creating a 3D Out of Bounds effect on an image or two.  For the work I would like you to use a Tutorial I found on Youtube by a young lady who goes by SOUL.

Option 2 - Using two images to make a 3D effect. Click for video 2 Images 3D Video

Teacher Notes:  Below are the steps of the Tutorial. They may not make sense to you with the tutorial going in the background, but helpful as a step by step instruction.


Gimp Out of Bounds Effect  3D Effect


Steps:
1  Open image in gimp.
2. Create a new layer by going to “Layer”, ‘new layer’ and set it to transparency.
3. Select the ‘Rectangle Select Tool” and use it to create a frame.
4. Create the border of the frame by going to  ‘select’ ‘border’ and then set the size of the border. In this example, the author uses 20 and select OK. I like smaller numbers it all depends on the size of your image.
5  Select the Bucket Fill tool from the Toolbox and fill the frame with color.
6. Go to ‘select’ ‘none’ to remove the selection and then:

7.  Use the Perspective tool to edit the frame.
8.  Decrease the opacity of the frame and then use the ‘erase tool’ to erase the on top of the person or item you want to be coming out of the frame. You may need to change the size of the eraser to do this. Increase the opacity of the frame back to 100%. Note: You may want to change the eraser and eraser size and the percentage size of the photo for erasure accuracy.
9. When done increase the opacity back to 100%.
10  Now select the layer of the photo and erase the background.
Note: The erased color will be filled with the 2nd selected color, but if you want a transparent background then go to: ‘layer’, transparency’, ‘add alpha channel’ Also note that sometimes the "Layer" dialogue box gets closed:  To open it go to: Windows, recently closed and open "Histogram" Another option is to go to: "Windows"  'Dockable Dialogues' and select layers.

11.  You are done. Export the image. If the period ends before you are done "Save" your project so you can begin where you left off on the previous day. Title the project '3D'
