Back to the Future

[Moviefreak]

I also realize that it should be color corrected. So I eliminated some of the yellowing of the photo, and addressed the big black upper right hand corner. You will find these changes on the full size image below.




Here is the full size...





NOW LOOKING AT IT ON MY MOBILE PHONE, IT STILL LOOKS A LITTLE TOO YELLOW. ON MY PC IT LOOKED GOOD. SO SHOULD I KNOCK IT BACK MORE?

running a test for mobile colors...




Looks almost white on my computer, so I’m not sure why it’s still looking yellowish on my phone. It has to be the calibration difference between my phone snd computers.

I mostly notice the yellow on the sign background. Feel like that should be whiter like the siding.

How does it look on your screen now?

 

[Lt Washburn]

Very good.

 

[RafalFett]

Those look pretty good. Good call on the shadow on the right upper corner. Here are the photos without enhancements, but with some extra cleaning and a bit of restoration of the right railing. Use them to your liking:

I think it is just the shape of his hair. It seems to make his head taller than it really is.

Here is the screenshot…

It's funny Ive been into props since 1984 and just this year did paper props catch my imagination. So I've been scrolling through the directory for days now looking for something cool to print.

You did great jobs in enhancing that photo, guys.

Actually, I'm working on the photo, too. I don't like Topaz, other AI enhancers do a better job. My focus is on the faces. Here's a small section of my work, which is still in progress.

Funny how these ai enhancing programs try their best to make it look better. Been using the one Moviefreak shared, and some pics it does really good, and others, not so much. I noticed they tend to work best if the person is facing the camera. If a person is looking to the side and the pic is a bit blurry, the ai will add an eyeball looking dead straight ahead, which just makes it looks odd and creepy. But, its sure better than nothing.

Now that I think about it, since photoshop didn't exist when they made Back to the Future, I suppose they had to use photo developing methods to make them look like they are half disappearing. I really don't know much about that. If anyone has any info on that type stuff would be cool to read/watch.

This looks great, Roland! What source did you used for this and what program?

Welp, looks like there's another selling prints from this thread. Came up while I was searching for a nylon wallet for my own prop.

(Speaking of which, does anyone have any shop recommendations for the base Marty wallet?)

So I'm working on touching-up some of the graphics I've gotten from folks for my own rendition of Marty's wallet.

Before I go about making my own, has anyone here previously done a 1985 seal of the city of Hill Valley? I've seen a few online for 2015 hill valley, but none for 1985.
