How to: Carved Text (Photoshop)

[@mjencristo]

Thank God for this tutorial. I needed to carve something on a tree for a photography client of mine and couldn't figure it out. I watched six other videos with no luck. Your code saved the day. Thank you sir ! 👍🏼

[@DrumWizard16]

Thank you so much. I am taking a college PS course, and have been frustrated. Your tutorials are clearer, easy to understand, and quicker! Thanks for including project files as well!

[@avproductions5184]

Thank you so much for the tutorial! I actually didn't want my text to look as clean as yours did. I wanted my text to look more like it was etched in with a knife so I found that switching the font to Chalkduster and changing the style to Inner Bevel. Couldn't have done it without this tutorial. Like.

[@cgrscott]

I like how this tutorial was done the way I like to work, using the menu very little and opening the dialog off the layers. Very helpful. Thanks.

[@bratzie]

Awesome! Good job. Really nice outcome. Tip: Instead of relying on the text/logo being white and then multiplying, use any color and drag the fill value (under opacity) to 0%. This way, the things in the layer disappear, but the layer styles are still visible.

[@UniblueMedia]

I did not know you could do that in Photoshop. I'm used to using 3-5 of the Adobe programs on a daily basis, and it does not work like that in for ex. After Effects or Premiere pro. Thank you, nonetheless!

[@bratzie]

I know! It's not obvious, and I know you know your way around other areas of the Creative Suite ;), also, to center stuff on a canvas, have the move-tool selected. Select everything (ctrl-a) and use the move tool options to center the layer based on your selection. (Options are in the move-tool toolbar up top by default, not sure about shortcuts).

[@UniblueMedia]

***** I appreciate the tips. Thank you :)

[@axeljlundberg]

Its great you started doing tutorials! They are really good and helpfull :D

[@UniblueMedia]

Thanks! I'm glad that these are so well received.

[@Dwavard]

One of the best engrave tutorials Ive worked through, thanks for posting this :-)

[@Universe88productions]

Thanks, man appreciate the tips doesn't work as well for smaller text but regardless that little tip about copying layer style just helped me loads! Had to subscribe for that

[@cpkarkow]

very well done - thank you! No muss, no fuss, no extraneous clutter information. Like it! It works thanks!

[@milliondollarshaft]

I appreciate the tutorial. It definitely came in hand.

[@HeartyMarial1990]

Nice one! I subscribed to your channel and I am looking forward to watching more of your tutorials :)

[@IAmMissWow]

Awesome tutorial! I also love your speed art videos. You should do a tutorial on how to make a block (like a quick texture, but complex).

[@nolanzor]

This works perfect, not for text only, thanks a lot man!

[@bphongtar2106]

Really helpful. Thank you!

[@aglobalphenomenon0]

THANKS DUDE...actually I was looking for this and I really needed it

[@GaryParkin]

Thank yo so much for the tutorial. I used this technique on an old metal texture and it looks awesome!

[@leesvensson4636]

Thanks for this! It works great on metal backgrounds as well!

[@ChrisCatton]

Simple, easy tutorial. Great stuff man!

[@ElementCinematics]

[@SamZ]

[@quimcey2010]

Wonderful narration and incredible results, thank you :)

[@bobsan2360]

Thanks for the inspiration as well as an easy to follow tut!

[@AimOnTargets]

Thanks, but mine get messed up, might depend on what background I use? Cause I just want it on a white-ish background. It looks like the text is standing out and not carved :S

[@jazziebee]

Thank you for making this! May I ask what font do you use? It's okay if you don't want to share it.

[@Tutupistolao]

[@zulemaseguel4602]

Thanks! This information was really helpful.

[@digitaldesigner5284]

Thanks for lesson teacher. Greetings from Brazil.

[@Whotfareyou123]

it doesn't have to be white. you can drop the fill opacity to zero no matter the color

[@Dinolight2335]

Great tutorial! And what are you now thinking about for the texture pack?

[@paulmurphy5464]

Excellent demo!!

[@ExplodeTeam44]

Thx you so much ! This text is just AWESOME!

[@ld.z2808]

Hello ^_^ Thank you so much for your videos, I love watching them. Just a passing by question. I love the font you used, can I know the name of the font please? Thanking you in advance :)

[@fab111]

Wow, exactly what I was looking for!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

[@mcroman-superfeat]

TIP; U can also Duplicate Layer - Put Above and use Diff. filter as preferred... ( too maybe have little more effect on text ) ...

[@_bhimsainik_gaurav358]

All the best,

[@reinhardsmit]

Great Tutorial. Well done!

[@metasamsara]

Hi, I really like your effect but I was wondering, is there a way to make it transparent when there is no background? I'd like to be able to use it as a png over any texture... Thank you very much if you help me!

[@UniblueMedia]

Technically, yes. You could make a grey map (a grayscale) and use it's light values to create this effect. To make it more effective, place your saved saved image of this on on it's own layer in Photoshop and switch between different modes to achieve your wanting. I would recommend "Overlay" as this is brilliant for light adjustment using gradient maps or any other grayscaled elements. Have fun!

[@metasamsara]

Uniblue Media I did not really understand these instructions x) Note that I know only the basics, when it comes to blending options and effects I almost always follow tutorials...

[@Broozyr]

Nice tutorial! Also, will r3d craft be updated to 1.7?

[@tthomas8745]

Thank you! This helped a lot with ps project for school!

[@jlabsteinc]

4:52 is it supposed to be "multiply" or "overlay"?

[@estephaniadesignsllc7457]

I thought the same thing LOL

[@kasperstenbom]

Keep these tutorials coming! :D and what microphone do you use?

[@UniblueMedia]

As the description suggests; "Snowball", by Blue Microphones

[@kasperstenbom]

Uniblue Media It doesn't say in the desc. That's why I asked.

[@TARUNPARASHAR]

Very nice man, thanks a lot. :)

[@vladaunguran7180]

Just great!!! Even project file download is included. Tnx man.

[@whydoyoutroll99]

easy to follow! good stuff

[@oluwaseuneniolaagbaje5397]

This is really cool But what if I want to use an already existing logo That I can’t convert to white or black

[@VictorDanov]

One more nice tutorial out there... ;)

[@MissBloomPeters]

It's was awesome... thank you so much Sir. I'm so glad I learned something new

[@PortraitsByChrista]

The step, 'go to the burning options for the text layer', I can't find it or info about where to find it. I'm working in Elements, and have never had a problem finding any tool, just usually have to look other places. Do you have any idea about where I could find it? Thanks!!

[@PortraitsByChrista]

+Christa Blevins Well, I think I just found something that's just not available in Elements... I found the options to add a bevel and shadow, etc., but it's very limited on what can be done. Thanks for sharing, maybe I'll be able to get PS pro again sometime. :)

[@psychoneurosis997]

He says "blending options" not "burning" :'S

[@ionutmihalache1726]

Your tutorial is great, verry well made! Thank you ! It really is helpful.

[@Ashie404]

Thanks, although i had to use the projects file cause photoshop elements, i couldnt get layer effects open, but i made something epic!

[@channel86i59]

Amazing....I liked

[@KuzkayDev]

[@Msthanhtunguyen]

[@TheBlackstealth]

Fantastic!

[@Bernie585]

Nice. Thank you. So how can I save the layer so I don't have to go through all the steps next time? Thanks for anyone who can help.

[@volki6150]

[@ammeldaaini4183]

Thanks for tutorial, it really helps me making cool watermark for my artwork. ;-)

[@SebastianPortilloMusic]

Great tutorial, cheers!

[@Doyledeth]

I installed this great looking mod and only some of the textures were changed. Spruce door, granite etc are default textures and looks very out of place. Some dirt is fine, while some dirt in some areas are default. I don't want to use another texture mod because I love how the cracks look when you mine. I have forge and optifine and I am using 1.8 since I can't find any 1.8.3. I'm new to Minecraft and don't want to continue playing until I resolve this issue.

[@TheBDQJP]

+Doyledeth the fuck?

[@Doyledeth]

TheBDQJP Ok?

[@TheBDQJP]

Doyledeth What?

[@Doyledeth]

TheBDQJP You made a blanket statement saying, "the fuck?" Without really explaining why you said that so I said, "Ok?"

[@TheBDQJP]

But this is a photoshop tutorial and you said something about this minecraft game

[@hax0rl33t2]

How do i keep the image background as text background but remove the background layer so it stays in the text layer ?

[@chaichai5746]

You are awesome!

[@stef1896]

why some creators think we want the music in background? :) i think vast majority of us come to learn, and not to be entertained, which makes the music a little bit disturbing. beside of that, great lesson. :)

[@n0rber10]

Tip, angles are never procent, its degrees. Nice video tho :3

[@UniblueMedia]

It's easy to mix up words when you are not speaking your primary language, while navigating in a program. There are more mistakes in addition to that one. Pardon my flaws, but I'll hopefully improve myself as an amateur educator with these tutorials.

[@n0rber10]

I hope to see you grow :) I really like your video's and I can see you can mix them up sometimes as I am a foreigner aswell :3

[@zxinsWorld]

Uniblue Media You're really good, don't say that ^___^
