laravel - Resize images and save to Amazon S3

Question

When the user upload his profile pic i want to create 3 versions of this image with different sizes, then upload everything to amazon s3.

I use image intervention package for resizing images, this my code so far.

public function store(Request $request){

    if($request->has('avatar')){

        $avatar = $request->file('avatar');

        $filename = md5(time()).'_'.$avatar->getClientOriginalName();

        $normal = Image::make($avatar)->resize(160, 160);

        $medium = Image::make($avatar)->resize(80, 80);

        $small = Image::make($avatar)->resize(40, 40);

        Storage::disk('s3')->put('/users/'.Auth::user()->uuid.'/avatars/normal/'.$filename, fopen($normal, 'r+'), 'public');

        Storage::disk('s3')->put('/users/'.Auth::user()->uuid.'/avatars/medium/'.$filename, fopen($medium, 'r+'), 'public');

        Storage::disk('s3')->put('/users/'.Auth::user()->uuid.'/avatars/small/'.$filename, fopen($small, 'r+'), 'public');

        $user = User::findorFail(Auth::user()->id);
        $user->avatar = $filename;
        $user->save();

        return redirect()->back();
    }

}

When i try to submit the file i got this error.

fopen(): Filename cannot be empty

Any help is appreciated

UPDATE i made it work like this, if someone has the same issue i hope he will find this code helpful.

public function store(Request $request){

    if($request->has('avatar')){

        $avatar = $request->file('avatar');
        $extension = $request->file('avatar')->getClientOriginalExtension();

        $filename = md5(time()).'_'.$avatar->getClientOriginalName();

        $normal = Image::make($avatar)->resize(160, 160)->encode($extension);
        $medium = Image::make($avatar)->resize(80, 80)->encode($extension);
        $small = Image::make($avatar)->resize(40, 40)->encode($extension);

        //$path = '/users/'.Auth::user()->uuid.'/avatar/normal/'.$filename;

        //dd($normal);

        Storage::disk('s3')->put('/users/'.Auth::user()->uuid.'/avatar/normal/'.$filename, (string)$normal, 'public');

        Storage::disk('s3')->put('/users/'.Auth::user()->uuid.'/avatar/medium/'.$filename, (string)$medium, 'public');

        Storage::disk('s3')->put('/users/'.Auth::user()->uuid.'/avatar/small/'.$filename, (string)$small, 'public');

        $user = User::findorFail(Auth::user()->id);
        $user->avatar = $filename;
        $user->save();

        return redirect()->back();
    }

}
