Hello guys !
i'm trying to replicate the style of this kind of images.
So i divided this in 2 : the characters and the background.
Background is not that hard but it's the most important i think, even i don't know the way for now, so if you have some tips, thanks you.
The characters are transparent in some places, so they are black/transparents, not that hard i think, but i'm not a detouring expert on PS, so if you have any advices, thanks.
I have like 30 images to change into this kind of colors, so i'm looking for a kind of "filter" or simple way to change this if possible
Have you any advice on this ? by the way if you want a better look, it's from the "strike back" intro
Here : Cinemax: Strike Back - Opening Credit Sequence - YouTube
Thanks for your time.

For the characters, if you mean that you like the super high contrast look, you can try to accomplish that with levels. Take a photo and go to image>adjustments>levels threshold* and play with the slider that pops up in order to make it a harsh black and white image:
*Edited to fix my mistake.
Next, place the image on a layer above a texture that you like and choose a blending mode like "darken" or "darker color" so that the layer below shows through only on the lighter parts.

Hmm... you're right. That appears to be because I didn't have my coffee that morning and I typed the word "levels" and not "threshold." I'm terribly sorry! Go to image>adjustments>threshold and the rest of the info above should get you closer to what you want.
My mistake.

Sorry to resurrect a long dead thread, but I found this looking for help doing something similar;
The issue I'm running into is that for some pictures I can't find a good threshold adjustment to make the picture legible and I was wondering if you had any tips, perhaps a filter or another adjustment of some sort that would 'simply" the picture for a more legible end result when doing the above?

Hi there! It looks like you’re commenting on an older thread. I’d suggest creating a new one for better visibility in the future.
Thanks,

Yes. Absolutely. Start a new thread, show us example images, and describe what you would like to achieve, and the issues you are having. I promise you'll get a good response, because this sort of question is always popular on this forum.
