Hello
This is the
Tutorial number 64 from the
100 Marathon Tutorial
As i have told you i will try to add a tutorial each day.
Today i will show you how to create a nice text effect
Start a new document in photoshop
Size 400 x 150
Background Color: black
Select Type Tool and write some text on your document
Add the following layer styles
And here is my result after i have applied this layer style:
Now rasterize this layer ( go to Layer > Rasterize > type )
Duplicate this layer ( press ctrl+J )
Then add the following layer styles
The next image is to modify the Contour for Bevel and Emboss settings:
The next image is to modify the Contour for Contour settings:
The next image is to modify the Contour for Satin settings:
This is my result
Select rectangular marquee tool , and make a selection
Be sure you have the background layer selected, then
Go to Edit > Transform > Warp
From the drop down menu please choose " flag " , then hit Enter to apply the settings
This is my result
You can see that the background has changed a little. This is no problem. We don't need the background right now
Select the top Layer from your layer palette ( in my case the name of the layer is Talk copy
Then grab the Erase Tool and start deleting inside your selection
Now go to Select > Inverse ( or press SHIFT+CTRL+I )
Select the first text layer ( in my case the layer " TALK" it is the middle layer from your layer palette
Grab one more time Eraser Tool and start deleting the other part of the text
Then press on CTRL+D to deselect
Select Paint bucket tool, and fill your background layer with blak
This is my result
I hope you like this. this is a simple effect, and your results can be better then mine.Good luck
