How to make someone look underwater

1. Import the photo you want to use (pick one with the subject's mouth closed)

2. Select the magnetic lasso tool and highlight your subject

3. Right click and select "Select Inverse"

4. Hit delete and this dialogue box will come up:

Click "color" and choose a deep blue

5. You can now go in and touch up the parts that the lasso selected that were unnecessary, but it doesn't have to be perfect

6. Add a "Foreground to Background" gradient at about 20% opacity

7. Select the paint brush tool and turn the diameter all the way up and turn the opacity to 25%

8. Cover the entire canvas in a dark blue layer (don't unclick- you'll get weird overlaps when you click again)

9. Change the brush pattern to a texture (I chose a soft one) leaving the opacity at 25%, but changing the brush size to about 250 (depending on the pattern) and make the color a very light blue. These will be your bubbles.

10. Draw a line from the face area to look like bubbles are coming from their mouth/nose

11. Turn down the opacity to about 10% and use the same brush and draw upward strokes in the negative space around the subject

12. Go to the filter gallery and choose "Palette Knife." Adjust the stroke size to 13.

13. Add another gradient, this time from the top corner (follow the way the light source look from the original image) with opacity at 20%, the gradient type "Foreground to transparent"

14. Select elliptical marquee and highlight the area of the gradient you just made, right click and select "Layer via copy"

15. On this new layer, right click and select "Blending options"

16. Select "Texture" Under "Bevel and Emboss." Choose a texture and make the depth -95%

17. Right click the layer and change the Bevel and Emboss opacity to 15%

18. Flatten Image

19. Choose your bubble paint brush again, Turning opacity to 6%, and add as many bubble as your want!
