Film Strip bend/curl

[browndog]

I want to make a fold in a film strip similar to this picture. Is there a way to do this once the strip has been created?

Hi there ...

I'm afraid that your image isn't showing up :(

A while back I did some notes on how to bend a film strip ... here is a link to it:

I've tried the shear filter but I can't get enough of a bend in the film strip. This is one I found on the internet but I want to make my own.

Hi there ...

The Shear filter wouldn't really get that effect ...

I would be inclined to get your film strip and remove the end sprockets, now distort them to give the appearence of a bend and then use the dodge tool for a highlight ... that should give the illusion that there is a bend at the top of the film strip ..

Here is a quick one I did to make a bend:
