It is amazing how much you can do with blur, noise, objects/patterns imported from illustrator, masking, opacity blending effects, a soft brush and colour effects.

[@PandaaTheBear]

This video was AWESOME! I've always wanted to learn more about how to make certain objects look like they glow and also how to cast light in Photoshop. Thanks so much for this tutorial! 😁

[@Dylamorca]

Thank you Aaron! Very nice tutorial, filled with technics that can be used for sooo many purposes. You are the best! 😀

This is INCREDIBLE, love it!

[@AnandaGarden]

Quite wonderful and very clearly explained, I bookmarked it to surprise some dancers I photograph occasionally. Thank you, Aaron.

[@alexvibeschina5941]

*_Dope photoshop Effect! Great job! Here are some vibes from China!_*

[@chilecayenne]

Thank you Aaron!! I still always learn so much from your tutorials. A suggestion: Could you do some videos comparing how you would do things in both PS and Affinity Photo?

[@phlearn]

Thanks for watching for so many years chile! Noted!

[@dolorpo1132]

Using this for a studio concept

[@ck1425]

Hi Plearn. Do u have a video describing the different Blend Modes? I cant figure how to use these

[@mikez4132]

So cool. Ive been away from PS for so long I feel like I'm just learning to ride a bike again lol

[@matejadolinar3311]

Nice!

[@davidfabunmi5642]

First comment. Great video BTW

[@emrahy.849]

[@foundryconcept4985]

What version of Photoshop do you use as most of the options are missing on my Adobe PS CS3

[@bernakorur7065]

Nice ! My special thanks from Türkiye. TR TR.

[@gianpablito7422]

Great video !!!!!! 👍👍👍👍 Subbed and many likes 👍 😎😎❤️👏

[@tanvirtanvi]

Hey Aaron, hope you are doing well. I have received some jpg photos from a mac. My windows pc isn't able to recognize them. Is there any way I can convert my windows jpg photo to mac jpg and mac jpg to windows jpg? It's very important for my project and I will eagerly wait to hear from you, Regards.

[@nuffzed2001]

howdy Aaron Is there a way to make a photo look like the projection on the side of a building? like the batman symbol?

[@natashaaa4132]

with some steps it was hard to do because minor steps you explain well like how did you even get the hologram image and the picture in 2 separate file like that and how did you highlight the things to group them in one

[@phlearn]

Hi Natasha! If you send us an email to support with a screenshot of your PSD file and layers, our team will do their best to guide you 🤗

[@bramberkien1]

Amazing work Aaron! Quick question: wouldn't it have made sense to also remove the shadow next to her feet, on the floor, that the original subject left? It being a hologram made of light and all :D Maybe you touched on it in your video and I missed it.

[@Daniel_Ilyich]

He didn't, and that's a good catch. It would look more convincing without the shadow. I'm also not sure if the reflection is necessary for a projection.

[@HenkJanvanBoeijen]

At 8:30 you duplicate the group and control E this group with itself as you say. Then you rightclick and apply the mask to this new merged group. I'm not a rookie but I just could't figure out why the merging of the group was nessary and could'nt figure either wat was happining here to lead out to the glowing effect. Could you expand on that a bit further

[@livioeditara]

nice one, though I think something is missing. normally an hologram is kind of transparent. especially the bars behind the ballerina. they should be seen in a way

[@leonardofermoso5262]

8:20

[@RomanTunik]

Hologram must have transparent))

[@stevem.6557]

Help me Aaron Nace Kenobi, you're my only hope !! :)

[@eduardocorrochio208]

Love your work but you triggered my OCD twice. First when you left the shadow on the ground next to her feet. Second when you didn’t make her transparent so you could see the rails behind her mid section (which you would have to add in or adjust after removing her from the background with a content aware fill). But I understand that’s a lot to ask for in a short tutorial.

[@Uttinka]

Very good tutorial, thanks!
