Grettings All,

I was wondering if anyone would know how to create the look that you see for Ethan Hawke on the movie poster/DVD cover for the movie Gattaca. I just finished watching this movie tonight. I’d have to give it 2 thumbs up.

In the meanwhile I’m sitting here looking at this DVD cover for the movie. I really think this is awesome looking and would like to replicate it. Does anyone know where there might be a tut, or how to replicate this effect? Thanks.

If you didn’t have the control of the lighting, one could build the shadows with a Selection, making sure to do a good Feather.

A bit of Posterization, say 32 colors, might also help in that case

Still working with it. I’ve certainly discovered that to get that effect perfect isn’t quite as easy as it first seems, but will keep trying.
