perspective look photo

[darkdill]

Hi Guys,

Can i use xara to create a perspective looking photo using a normal photo eg:

simply said that I have a photo of a man standing normally but I want to create it using xara so that it appear that I'm taking the photo from a different perspective. i enclose an example.

can I create that using xara?

thank you in advance

Hi james,

i think you misunderstand me i have this photo;

attached ( the man is standing with the normal perspective - the man with the globe) I want to change the photo to other perspective (to make it seems like the picture was taken using the upper perspective such as the second photo -the man wearing glasses).

It just creating the impression like I'm taking the picture from above of the mans' head.

Hi,

I'm afraid that is impossible, no graphics program can do that.

The problem is that the original is two dimensional, and therefore it does not contain the image information needed to create the view from another perspective.

You need another photo, sorry.

I can do that, but only UVmapping the photo texture on a 3D model. Then I can rotate the model into any perspective I want. The 3D models pictured aren't texture with a particular photo but illustrate the need for 3D programs to do such a thing.

I don't recall what they were called, something 'scopes' maybe someone will remember them. But you could take several images that were transparent or translucent; stack them strategically in a light box arrangement and make them appear three dimensional. And when viewed by moving the light around, it appeared to move in different perspectives.

This would be darn difficult to do in 2D, but I suppose it could be done. I just have no clue how.

hmmm,

quite hard then.....

ok, how can I change a rectangle into another shape such as a v shape object? may be I can use that method and apply to the picture.... but of course it still going to be a 2d kinda photo and it will not be realistic... but i just want to make some experiment with it.

thanks
