Creative Halftones: Unlock The Secrets of Photoshop's Hard Mix Blend Mode

Download Now

My class is all about making halftones that go beyone the usual ones, and they all rely on a unique use of the unappreciated and rarely used Photoshop feature called the Hard Mix Blend Mode.

Take a photograph and turn it into a custom halftone using the Hard Mix Blend Mode. Try to design a halftone screen that in some way thematically supports the original ophoto. Maybe use scan lines on a robot, or circles on a 60s vinatage fashion photo. You can get fancy and apply different screens to different parts of your image, or even different color channels.
