High Speed Motion Trail Effect Written by Steve Patterson. In this Photo Effects tutorial, we’ll learn how to add a sense of speed to an object using an easy to create motion blur effect! This "speed trail" effect is very popular in sports photography since it’s a great way to add motion, direction and excitement to an image, creating the illusion that an athlete, for example, is blazing past the competition at super human speed. Of course, this effect works just as well with a photo of your kids running in the backyard, or people dancing at a party, or any image where the subject should appear to be moving. Here’s the image I’ll be using: The original image. Here’s how the image will look after giving the racecar a high speed motion trail: The final “motion trail” effect. Let’s get started! Step 1: Select The Object You Want To Apply The Motion Blur To In many of our photo effects tutorials, the first step is to protect our original image from harm by creating and then working on a duplicate of the Background layer.

Create Super Glossy 3D Type In today’s tutorial we will demonstrate how to create super glossy 3D typography using Illustrator and Photoshop. Let’s get started! Open Illustrator and create a new RGB document, 1000px by 800px, 72 DPI, and write your text in a nice big font. I've used Marketing Script size 234pt. Next, with you text selected, go to Object > Expand, and hit ok on the pop up window. Currently, our letters are separate objects grouped together, we want them to be one single compound path. With the Pen Tool (P) selected, draw a new path starting from the last flick of the last letter s, and swirling its way down underneath our type. Change the Stroke Weight of our new path to a size that matches the width of the text path that it will be joining. Duplicate this path by dragging the Group's thumbnail (in the layers palette) to the New Layer button. With the Direct Selection Tool (A) select the two bottom-right Anchor Points of our path, hit Delete and name this group "swirl 1".

Unlock The Full Power Of Basic Selections In Photoshop Written by Steve Patterson. In this Photoshop tutorial, we’re going to look at how to get the most out of Photoshop’s basic selection tools, such as the Marquee tools or the Lasso tool. If all you’ve been using them for is to make a new selection every time, you’ve been missing out on their full potential. We’re going to see how you can add to an existing selection, how to subtract an area from an existing selection, and even how to intersect two selections and grab the area that overlaps. Once you become familiar with the full power of basic selections, they’ll seem a whole lot more useful to you. Let’s start by taking a look at how to add to an existing selection. Adding To A Selection To keep things simple, I have a fairly basic shape open in my Document Window: A basic shape in Photoshop. I want to select this shape using the most common selection tool in all of Photoshop, the Rectangular Marquee Tool, so I’m going to grab it from my Tools palette: There we go, looks good.
