Random question, but when you have an image like this with a ton of that fuzzy noise stuff and then you try to put an image into it without any fuzzy noise crap, what’s the best way to do it? Basically, how do you match noise when compositing images?
I’ve found some ways to do it online that are decent but it almost always comes out different. Like you can usually totally tell the image doesn’t belong there.
Last time I did this, I put the inserted elements into new layers and put some filters to generate some noise on these new layers (w/o applying it to the original picture) until it looked somewhat convincing. You might want to experiment with several methods to generate noise and their parameters (or even combine several of them). Also it can be handy to apply these effects to new effect layers on top of the layer(s) you want to adjust and then play around how you mix them.

Honestly I don’t think Consuela belongs in this image with or without noise.
But the answer is “experience with photo editing”
