After some investigation, I figured out that I could make a karaoke video myself! To do it only required 4 different kinds of software.

The carnival series started when I had an image I liked, but the exposure was all wrong. I decided to experiment with it. I had to bring up the exposure values, but that left me with an image that was full of noise.

I cut the image up into layers. Using the ‘Auto Trace’ tool, I traced each layer individually.

HDR (High Dynamic Range) post image processing techniques achieve a greater range of light levels from bright to dark creating dramatic images that more accurately represent real scenes.

Normally, up sizing an image is not allowed by stock galleries (this one began at 72 dpi). But because I’m working from a vector (with no loss of resolution at any size), when converting back to a rastored image, I can make the dpi whatever I want.
