Corey has a special extended tutorial on illustrating the Ice Age acorn.
In part two of this tutorial, Corey finishes the Transformers logo he began last week.
In this two-part tutorial, Corey begins creating the Transformers logo from this summer’s upcoming blockbuster.
Corey uses the new 3D features in Photoshop CS4 Extended to re-create the DreamWorks animated title.
When working with vector - created art and the source art is unavailable, modifying the art to create a logo can be a pain, to say the least—particularly when it’s flattened and the background needs to be knocked out. A careful combination of Invert (Command - I [PC: Ctrl - I]), Color Balance (Command - B [PC: Ctrl - B]), and layer Blending Options (Control-click [PC: Right-click] the layer name) can yield simple background knockouts of one- or two-color logos without making a mess.
