The characters came from the actual movie paused on my TV. They were hard not to blow out. The brightness of the TV is set to 0. I then found a matrix screen saver online, eye droppered the green off of it and created a whole screen of the color to light me from below. I'm holding the laptop screen just below the frame.
A lot was done in PP for it being a basic challenge. Layers include Brightness/contrast, Selective color, levels, curves, hue/saturation, color balance. I also used the channel mixer to bring out the red layer in monochrome and faded it so as to bring down the characters a bit. USM was then liberally applied for the sci-fi look. border. BAM.
Yes, I have no hair now.
No, the glasses do not hook to my ears.

I don't get it......why would someone vote 1 or 2 on this image? Surely, 1 or 2 should be reserved for gross image technical errors, not personal opinion as to the subject matter. I'd be interested in why peopls scored this so low. If I were voting at the time, I'd give it 7, 8 if you're head was not cropped out.
