The United States and Xiu Xiu create retro style, ordinary street view and gorgeous transformation.

When the trend blows, it blooms everywhere, film and television dramas are popular, clothing is also popular with nostalgia, and there is also a retro style in the field of photography. Of course, as a photographer, you don't have to use a film machine to play retro. Post-processing of pictures can also create a film-like effect, even better than film in color processing. Today, the author will teach you how to process an ordinary street view photo into a gorgeous retro effect with the software Meitu Xiu Xiu.

Ordinary street scenes with no bright spots are presented luxuriously in Meitu Xiu Xiu, which seems to make people walk into the retro scene in the movie. If you like, let's see how it is done:

1. Open a street view photo in Meitu Xiu Xiu, and appropriately increase brightness, contrast and color saturation under the "Beautify" menu. Imported marble special effects with transparency of 100% and 50% were used twice, which greatly improved the brightness of the photo.

2. The sky lacks details because the photos are brighter. We want to keep the sky of the original picture, so we first choose "matting-manual matting" to take out the tree of the house and save it as a custom decoration for later use.

3. Then click the "Original" button to return to the original. This time, just fine-tune the high brightness, contrast and color saturation, and make adjustments according to the needs of the original image, being careful not to overexpose the sky.

4. Next, enter the "Attachment" menu, and add the previously dug house part from "User Definition" to cover the original house. This can not only improve the brightness of the house part, but also not lose the details of the sky part.

5. The highlighted photos are not bright enough in color and contrast, and they feel gray. At this time, you can choose the method of local coloring, return to the "beautification" menu and use the "local color-changing pen" function to choose similar colors to paint houses, trees, the sky and so on.

6. In order to achieve the perfect tone effect, we began to use special effects to create a retro effect. First, use the special effects of "imported marble" and "retro" with the transparency of 50% under the classification of "photo studio" to appropriately increase the color saturation.

7. Finally, under the "LOMO" classification, use "HDR" with transparency of 50% and "Classic HDR" with transparency of 100% respectively, and you're done!

Many times, nostalgia is also an attitude towards life. When you share such a retro picture on Weibo, visitors may feel a nostalgic complex, and then the picture will help you convey your heart unconsciously. Friends who like retro style, come and try it!
