First of all I want to use this tutorial to wish you a Happy New Year 2011, which is full of satisfaction and health.
Today I will show you create a poster, from scratch, and with the tools and Burns Dodge, creating effects of folds in a very simple and interesting.
As always, I say we are interested in learning the art for later use in your work, as they are very useful.
STARTED:
1. CONTROL + N . New file. Set it to your liking.
2. Ctrl + Shift + N . New layer.
3. Select MARCO RECTANTGULAR tool (Press the letter M) and make a rectangular selection, the size you want, in the new layer.
4. Selected as the foreground color you like (in my case I chose the blue color) and then you fill the selection with that color: Edit> Fill: Foreground .
5. pressing the letter T to activate the tool TEXT and write you please (in my case I have Happy New Year 2011).
6. Press CONTROL + E to combine text layer with the banner.
7. CONTROL + T to activate the Transform tool FREE.
- Click inside the Free Transform box right click and select 90 º ACD, to turn the lineup.
- now give a curvature to the banner using DISTORTION Filter, Filter> Distort> Shear: Click on the center vertical line and move. Make curbatura to your liking.
- Replace the sign to its original position: right click and choose the 90 º AC .
8. Once we have the poster, with text, bent (slightly) and in its original position, press CONTROL + T to activate the tool FREE TRANSFORMATION and lower anchor points (the end) we introduce a little inward.
- This way we get to those corners of the cartel, fall.
9. FILTER> Texture> Texturizer . Select CANVAS Texture pop-up menu.
- That got him naturally to the lineup, so it is not as flat and smooth.
10. As you can see the result of applying the texture filter to the lineup has been very strong, so we're going to reduce the effect, using a simple procedure:
- EDITION> TEXTURE TRANSITION: Reduce the Opacity to 30% . With this we reduce the intensity.
- This procedure can be used with all filters, so that when you apply, a filter and the result is very strong, I went to Edit> Fade ... and you lower the Opacity.
11. Now begins the shading of the cartel:
- Select the Burn tool (Press the letter O). Choose a brush size diffuse medium and reduce the opacity between 20/40%, to achieve an effect not too intense.
- Paint a curve, not very steep, going by the Poster from one of the top corners to the other.
- Press the ALT to switch temporarily to the tool and paint dodge another curve, although this will parallel to the front and above it, to get clear of the area was dark.
- The combined effect, to make a curve with Burns and the other to dodge, is to create a lighted area above the crease and a shadow underneath.
12. Again using the Burn tool paint another curve, below the previous. More or less from one side to another.
- Use a low opacity and go over the shadows in areas that require more intensity.
- Press the ALT key to temporarily work with the dodge tool and paint over the dark parts (as we did before.) In this way we paint the clear that is above the shadow.
- COUNCIL: Sure I first did not go well the desired effect when we use the dodge tool, do not worry click CONTROL + Z to UNDO and keep trying.
13. Now we just have to repeat the procedure until you reach the bottom of the poster. In this way we get the effects creases and give the impression that this is a piece of cloth hanging.
14. To improve the lineup a little, add a fold in the area near the corners (you know, with Burn and Dodge brush at low opacity).
- NOTE: To make the edges look more credible poster, folds drawn with the Burn and Dodge tool should not arrive at their own corners or sides of the cartel, but must be parallel to the folds already drawn.
That's it! so simple this way we have learned to create effects of folds using Burn and Dodge tools.
I hope you find them useful.
DESIGN IS IMAGINATION
