Recreate the text effect from the title to the new blockbuster movie.
Continue exploring the possibilities with Photoshop’s new 3D tools.
Corey shows you how to make a new photo look damaged by blending in some unusual textures.
Use Photoshop’s new 3D tools to create some dazzling background effects.
When I’m done working with an image, I like to sit and admire it (hey, I spent six hours working on it, I should). To do that, I hit the Tab key, then hit the F key three times. This hides all of the panels and toolbars and lets you see the image by itself surrounded by black. To get back to regular mode, press the F key and the Tab key one more time.

You never cease to amaze me with your ability to take apart the elements of a completed project to create a “how to” tutorial that results in a very accurate simulation to the original! Great tutorial.
How do you come up with this stuff?

Wow, that selection tip of doing it with the colour channels and painting away it soft light was worth this tutorial alone! Thanks a lot for all of these Corey!

Hi!
Again, a great tutorial. And useful, for company’s logo animation, for example.
But next time, we must create our own clouds.
Nice weekend!

Fantastic tutorial, as always.
Nobody else ever comes close to creating a tutorial this gripping, in-depth, whilst being funny, simple to follow, and applicable to every-day use of Photoshop.
Thank you!

That was amazing Corey.
But Michael has a good question how to you come up with this stuff. I play in photoshop all day and i would have never thought of that.
Scott said on — June 14, 2009 @ 6:43 pm
Corey,
That is amazing. I wish I had a computer that can push CS4, it was still fun to watch

Simply Amazing!!!!!! Great stuff as usual keep it coming.
Kyle Maloney said on — June 15, 2009 @ 9:06 pm
Good stuff. but does anyone know of a way to add depth to 3d text? complete with perspective and such, like say, the Terminator logo. it seems only illustrator can do this, but is there really no way to do this directly in photoshop? if not they really need to add that to their to do list. the 3d in photoshop so far seems to be flat postcard only stuff unless you want to import a mesh made in a 3d modeling app or use preset primitives.

This is one of the best TUT so far!!!
David said on — September 26, 2009 @ 5:07 am
Hi, this tutorial is so wonderful, and I can say all of yours are wonderful too. Thank you.
Just a little suggestion, is there any chance that you would provide us picture (or pdf) based tutorials? It would be nice as we could look through it more carefully. Video tutorials are good but it’s a little bit quick and the resolution is not so big and clear.
Thank you again. You are very great.
David
