I’ll be converting text to shapes from now on.
As always, Corey’s teaching is excellent.
This is a great planet to visit often.
It has a cool atmosphere!
I have been visiting your website for a little over a year. Always great stuff, love your tuts. It is always the small tips like the hold control to drag without snapping. You show me things that I never knew I wanted or thought was possible, in not only PS but AI as well. So thanks a lot, you have no idea how helpful you have been!
For those of you who receive the “faux bold error”. This is because you have enabled faux bold (a setting that fakes a bold style). You can switch it off in the character palette.
On a related note, it would be awesome if you could show a quick and easy way to extrude text. The way I know are cumbersome and not very fancy, so I am usually forced to make it in actual 3D-programs instead. Thanks for a very useful tutorial, though.
I’ve been looking at our site a few weeks now and tried a few video’s. I’m an absolute NOOB when it comes to Photoshop but with the help of your video’s I’m getting great results !
Thank you ! This is really a very unique website and I’m recommending you to everyone who want to hear it π
After I duplicate the text layer/flip it and add the layer mask as you have done, when I try to use the gradient tool over the text nothing happens. Help?
Thank you for the tutorial.
For those who were looking to download this tutorial – you will find an flv file in your Temporary Internet Files folder (use search) after you watched it
Amazing stuff. I hope to see you at Photoshop World Boston….09 to thank you personally for your contribution to our art and general understanding of photoshop.
How come hardly any of these work for me? I’m using exact same program.. I get up to the bit where he does the gradient of the reflection.. It doesn’t work, just stays a solid color even though I do the exact same thing he does. So instead I just change the opacity of the reflection, then I right click on the top word and no option comes up saying ‘distort’? It just has two of my layer names, and then an option ‘Select similar layers’ – I go into distort under the ‘filter’ heading and it just has options like glass, glow, grain etc… Can anyone help?
This tutorial really helps raise the quality of your titles from bland 2 dimensional to 3D! It is also so useful for such a broad amount of applications, even film editing!
I love the effect!! Can Illustrator do anything like this?
How do I then use this as part of an Illustrator doc. If I wanted this effect in a postcard or logo, how do I get it there, since it is already vector..is this a rational question? any tips are greatly appreciated -Kevin
Just found this website and this is one of the most amazing PS videos I’ve seen. Love the detail and explantion that you include. Thank you so much. Awesome job!!! Can’t wait to go see more!
Is there a way to purchase this tutorial and others you’ve done on CD or DVD? I always hate when I find great videos and then try to go back and review later to discover they’ve been removed or the site is gone. This is by far one of the best I’ve seen! Thanks so much!
Cory, I learn so much from you!
PS. your video on channels and layers in Kelby training really expanded my photoshop savvy and has saved me a lot of time.
Everything in this works well for me except selecting the vector text and doing a transform on it. When I try to select the text, it selects the individual letters. Working in CS3.
Great tutorial! On your next one can you show us how you made the logo for the new design? Also, love the new website layout!
coooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool
dang! I wish I had something to use this on! I am just a digital scrapbooker, but you have taught me so much with your excellent tutorials!
