Hi!
I would like to ask if anyone can teach me or give me a short explanation on how to make a single subject to a multiple subject in one photo?
for example, I want to take a photo of myself in one certain location but instead of having myself as solo in that photo I want to make myself as a one group.
Can anyone help me on this?

Thanks!

Very basically:

Place the camera on a tripod so it cannot move.
Use a wireless remote or use some one else to use the camera.
Take one shot of yourself in position 1. Then position 2. Then position 3.
(If you are clever, change clothes as well.)
Then use Photoshop or another good bit of software to place each photograph on top of each other.
Flatten the layers and adjust

Then place your first attempt on this thread so we can see it.
Thanks fred!
ill try then ill post it!
put your camera on a tripod/wide angle lens
now move into different locations within that frame

now super impose all these frames ( 5-6-7-8- or how many you want )
in photoshop into one frame
here is a sample of what I did...when I have nothing to do and want to have some fun

great work !! foto is really nice
nice work, love it :)
Nice!!!!!
cool!!!!!
but how will I super impose these frames if i will super impose on frame to another..the first frame will be covered by the upper frame (layer) do i need to use eraser tool or lower the value of opacity of the layer on the top?!
but if i will goiing to lower the value of the layer on the top..it will also make my opacity of myself faded?!

Thanks!
second pic over top of the first, now erase where you were standing/sitting in the first
if you have a third pic, you erase the first and second pose so they come thru to the third...etc...
Hi, I want you to see something.
hi tyrone!
What do you want to show with me?!
There are 13 photos in my portfolio, and they are all multiples! The easiest way that I find to produce them is to use the clone tool and place ea. subject where I wish it to be. As long as the background perspective does not change I dont have a problem. A tripod is a must.
Some of these are done "in camera". And some are done by shining light on the subject w/o illuminating the background so, that it doesn't create a "ghost" image. I block parts of the lens and shoot only that image then flip the card ect. and shoot the rest of the image.
I also, use a flash and follow the subject around making sure the the light does not overlap creating "ghost" images. I made a whole platton of my room mate in the army this way. His mom loved it!
