Cool Tools to Remove Background and Apply Effects to Photos
Last week, I shared “5 things you might not know about me…” on LinkedIn.
The post included this picture of me…
A few people told me they liked that picture, and they suggested I use it as my profile picture — instead of the one I was using.
“Sure, why not?” I thought.
But before I swapped in that picture, I had to change the background.
My website — StoryPowerMarketing.com — has a pop-art cartoon motif.
So my image on that site — and my social profile photo — gets the same treatment. The cartoon effect. The pop art background.
Carving away the background from a photo can be a massive pain. Same deal if you want to apply cartoon effects or other visual tricks to a photo.
But I turned that picture of me from the one above to this
…and it took me less than 10 minutes.
Here’s a video that shows how I removed the background…
I also created a video that shows how I quickly and easily applied the cartoon effect to my picture.
That video — and others — is available for free on the Story Power Marketing app — which you can get for free at StoryPowerMarketing.com/app
The app is available for iPhone or Android and contains written and video marketing tips that you can’t find anywhere else.
