5 Ways to Make Your Images Pop

Welcome to OFFEO. Today we will be exploring five ways to make your images POP in OFFEO. 

1. Modern Design - Playful Shapes & Frames

Some abstract shapes and frames behind your subject can create dynamism and playfulness in the design. 

We’ll primarily use OFFEO's remove BG tool to achieve this. First of all, upload or choose your image. Select something that has one clear subject with a clean background.

Select the Remove BG function on the top bar to delete the background in your image. 

Doing this can bring focus to the primary subject and also open up new opportunities for designing. 

Next, we want to create a slight out-of-bound effect for our subject. To do so, insert a round mask.

Replace the image inside the mask with our subject. Images with the background removed will be stored in the "My Files” tab. Resize and match it to our subject here. Use crop to remove the unwanted areas.  Group both image layers for easier management.  Let’s adjust the color of our image.

Let’s add more elements to our design. Search for “leaves” in the graphics tab. Scatter them in the background. Adjust the color and hue to fit the design. Let’s add a square outline in the background. Duplicate the abstract shapes and place them in the background of our design. Let’s change the background color.   

Lastly, let’s add our text and logo. Do some final touch-ups and reposition the elements here if needed. 

2. Out-of-Bound Effect

Out-of-bound effect is a fancy way of saying 3D. Designers have used some illusions in the video to make things appear like it’s coming out of the screen.

3. Professional Photo - Depth of Field Effect

We can artificially create a depth of field effect in OFFEO to make your image look like it’s professionally taken.

First, import your image and duplicate it. We will be using one layer for the background and the other will be the focus of our design.

Add a blur effect to the Background. Pause the video if you would like to copy our settings. For the background removed layer, we will be adding a subtle ground shadow to make it seem more natural. 

Lastly, add in our text, and voila, the design is complete!  

 

4. Thumb-Stopping Videos

First, filter out thumb-stopping templates from our designer templates. Choose one that you like to begin.

Replace the background image of the template. Here we will be using this burger image. Resize and reposition it.

Drag in the burger image again. This time, remove its background. Match the position to our background image. Add ground shadow to the layer.

After all, edit the text and that’s it! 

5. Text in Background

Finally, we have the fifth way to create a design with a background removed image, which is adding text behind our main subject. 

As usual, let’s drag in our image. Fit it to the width and height of our canvas. 

Duplicate the layer and remove one of the layer’s background. Match its position to the previously duplicated layer. Lock this layer so that it doesn’t move around when we’re selecting and adding our text layers.

Lastly, add in the text layers behind our subject layer. Simple as that!
