Also, the fraction character (the slash) is extending beyond the top and bottom of the respective small zeros, as indicated by the magenta lines below.īy changing the text to outlines, separating out the paths of the component pieces of the symbol, and adjusting them, Deke was able to create this much more aesthetically pleasing version: The percentage symbol uses about twice the space as the other characters. It’s easy enough to kern the number characters closer together, but when you do, the percent symbol looks oddly loose, as you can see indicated by the cyan circle below. So imagine that you have this ’100%’ text ( against a background of 100% wood-free wood Deke created in last week’s free episode). And taking apart the percent character is the key to this technique. Figuring how to kern between those three components is just the kind of challenge Deke likes to take apart. It’s actually made up of three sub-characters (a small superscript zero, a fraction-slash, and a small baseline zero). But what about the percentage symbol, for instance? Sure, adjusting the spacing between full-fledged characters is fairly straightforward in Photoshop: Click in between two characters with the type tool and use the Alt (or Option) key in combination with the right and left arrow keys as needed. If you, like Deke, recoil at the sight of badly kerned text, then this week’s type-geek technique is just for you. If that’s not enough depth for you, members can see an exclusive video in the Online Training Library, in which Deke (again with the help of Jacob) demonstrates how to create a stereoscopic image with an object projecting out beyond the screen plane. Then the two images are placed on separate layers in the same file, and the color channels are turned off so that each of your eyes (with the requisite glasses on) sees a slightly different image. You can see in the top two images (each with a simulated filter applied), slightly means slightly-as in the distance between your two eyes. In order to achieve this classic effect, you have to first correctly shoot a pair of images with a slightly shifted perspective, like the ones shown below shot by ’s own Jacob Cunningham. In this case, Deke shows you how to create an image intended to be viewed through the old-school red (left) and cyan (right) glasses. Anaglyph images are created by superimposing two slightly different perspectives of the same scene, with each version seen by only one eye or the other, resulting in a sense of depth when your brain fuses the two images into one. In this week’s free Deke’s Technique, you’ll see how to create a classic anaglyphic stereoscopic 3D image in Photoshop. How To Create A Classic Anaglyphic Stereoscopic 3D Image Put your silly glasses back on for this one, kids. And in this week’s member-exclusive video, Deke shows you how to apply a tilt effect to that text for an amazingly sophisticated effect that you’ll be hard pressed to find documented anywhere else. In fact, Deke gives you a cool, non-3D (take those silly glasses off for a second) graphic that shows you how to move your anaglyphic objects to and fro for the desired effect:īy the end of this free video, you’ll have your text dancing in and out of the screen. Words and pictures coming at you courtesy of Deke and ! And despite its intricate effect, this technique primarily consists of systemtatically turning channels on and off and moving layers right and left. ![]() Good thing, because this week, Deke shows you how to take your stereoscopic image and move solid objects (in this case text) behind and in front of the perceived screen plane. If you tuned in to Deke’s Techniques last week, you probably still have your red/cyan cardboard sunglasses at hand.
