How To Place ANYTHING in Perspective Non-Destructively in Photoshop [Real-World Workflow]

[@jensvielmann7662]

First: You were right... When reading the title I thought "vanishing point". Your method certainly has its advantage. But their is one Point I struggle to understand. I get that you use the perspective Crop tool to get the dimensions/Aspect ratio. But then you go on and distorted it. So why should that then keep the aspect ratio. And If you going to distorted it why not start with a simple rectangle-tool. P.S. Never mind I missed the fact that you turned it into a smart Object BEFORE distorting it the first time I watched. You could have taken a second to emphasis/explain this... as it is imho the key to the entire technique. Anyways. Great job. Actually learing something new in PS from youtube has become rare.... but you certainly did it. Not that I am a Designer and see me using it regularly, but still: Nice.

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Thanks, Jens! Yeah, the Smart Object is the emphasis!

[@anuragsinha2636]

Ya same thought.. did the rectangle thing myself and understood the mistake

[@anuragsinha2636]

Even if you took the rectangle and converted it to a smary object the shape would be same as that of the book.. both smart object and perspective crop tool is important.. perspective help to change the slanted perspective to normal perspective.. else if you used rectangle it would still be in slanted perspective

[@anuragsinha2636]

In short the perspective tool gets the aspect ratio and smart object will make it a template

[@jennybaumgartner6591]

finally someone who explains this technique! I really appreciate this tutorial and your pleasant voice. Thank you!

[@stefanslair]

This video was on an entire different level of genius! Amazing tutorial even 5 years later, thank you so much!

[@IsraHellandhypocriteeuropeans]

Can you please explain why he did use the option of copy merge rather than just copy? Further why he didn't just convert the image into smart object? Is there any point I am missing?

[@MicBergsma]

1:31 is all what I need to know, thanks!

[@danielkitura]

You`re indeed a living Jesus of Photoshop! I mean, you show us miracles! And not only show, but teach us how to do it! I would probably never figure out this algorhytm by myself! And it`s so brilliant! Can`t thank you enough!

[@andylomerson2797]

this video was so chock-a-block full of great tips and tricks beyond just the core concept it is worth its weight in gold. excellent stuff! ty

[@BPMLA]

by far one of the best photoshop tutorials i've ever seen. thanks a lot, mate !!!

[@atlas_du_monde]

This is definitely the most useful and professional tutorial. I did vanishing point and ctrl + T, but it still ended up imperfect. Thank you!

[@jakelikeslowcars]

It's really nice when you put a thing up on screen that shows what the key you just pressed does and what it is called

[@bretlinford6096]

Another brilliant workflow. Your approach to these solutions is so fresh and inspiring! Helps us "old dogs" stay motivated!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Thank you, Bret!

[@whirlwind872]

The fact that you can shift+click brush to draw a straight line just blew my mind

[@optechusa]

Another excellent tutorial! I appreciate not only the concepts you show, but the way you explain and present them are top-notch! Thank you!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome, optechusa!

[@CmndaPnda]

This was exactly what I was looking for! Another handy tool for my design utility belt! ;) Thank you.

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome, yellchai!

[@MaazWitwicky]

Thank you so much for these amazing tutorials I learn something new every time I come back to your channel

[@ronc166]

This is dope. I am doing a project & I’m having a vanishing point issue. I couldn’t figure it out. Thanks. You’re a the king.

[@IkeJr2008]

Forgot to mention that using guides for your perspective crop points was spot on. Thanks for tip.

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome, Jim!

[@binyameena1822]

you are my teacher. I usually impress my seniors and session fellows by showing your techniques. i wish i could buy your premium tutorials. but it is difficult for a student to pay 125$. both thumbs up for you tutorils.

[@veggie1607]

I was working with a bunch of premade templates that used exactly this technique, and was wondering how exactly it was done... I had the basic idea of how to do it all, but this video has really helped me to get all the steps right.

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Awesome! I'm glad it helped!

[@PerceptionIsEverything]

Really neat trick & perfect explanation , thank you bro

[@dhananjaipande7625]

Great job, you are right I have not seen any designer use this trick, thanks a lot. I am going to try it out now.

[@Theamazingaprilb]

I have to admit, even though I was doubtful- this wound up being a very nice trick. I had to match perspective with two assets and it just wasn't working. Even when I had the perspective right- my overlay asset was getting too distorted. This method allowed me to use a smart object (AI) in the overlay. Perspectives match, and quality is good. Hat's off to you from 4 years in the future :)

[@xhanplayzvalorantclips9350]

Life changing dude!! You're so cool teacher 🔥💙

[@AustinWeedCompany]

Man, pretty solid! Best way I've ever seen to do this!

[@IkeJr2008]

What an awesome tutorial! This method beats Vanishing Point hands down.

[@justfordownloads9730]

Always you have a new and awesome technique.

[@dusanstevic89]

Your videos are phenomenal!

[@Mara_1337]

This was incredible, exactly what I needed! I am just photoshopping some holiday pictures, so I think your fancy technique is a bit too much for me ^^ but you also showed the simpler ones quickly, which I appreciate, and I think your advanced method is really good!

[@Ps_now]

Simply ingenious. Thank you. Very good work. The truth is that I missed a bit at first but the second time I watched I understood better. I've done hundreds of simulations in different ways, but none of my methods approach the genius of your idea.

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Thank you, AloniTuts!

[@InevitableMayo]

This is excellent. Exactly what I wanted for what I want to do for my thumbnails when I start to upload videos again. I usually just put text over the image saying what the video is and save as it is but I wanted to start putting that text on the walls in the backgrounds and such. Before this video, I found one that teaches you about using the vanishing point but using that method seems to only copy the bare text rather than the edited text (with a stroke outline in my case). This video is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks a lot.

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome, MartyCon Productions! I'm glad that this video helped!

[@jimmymuldoon7866]

This tutorial is just what I've been looking for. I'm having an issue with the perspective crop tool. I keep getting the "Could not use the perspective crop tool because the image contains unsupported layers types." error when trying to crop. The layer I'm trying to use this technique on is a smart object with a smart filter on it (which helped get my perspective right). Is there a way around this?

[@Ru1uvus]

Thank you for another excellent tutorial, Jesus! Your presentation skills are enviable.

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Thank you, Lance!

[@m.nadeemashraf7381]

awesome tutorial .

[@EXISTIR21]

Thank you for your tutorial. You have helped me to finish my final billboard. ¡Gracias maestro!

[@soundofsilence21]

Excellent tutorial, thanks. How would you do this if you had multiple objects? For example, a set of 3 picture frames ... using this technique I understand how to do one, but after pasting the perspective crop and converting to a smart object it won't permit you to do another perspective crop. Presumably, I need a working copy of the file and then a copy that I use for the perspective crop? Any better suggestions?

[@awesome3411]

Wow man, I really enjoy your stuff. It adds so much to my "skills". Thx alot

[@nikkimallery]

[@pisethchrin5823]

I like your tutorial 👍🏽

[@deanweaver1114]

Thanks for a great lesson. I’ve been having oodles of problems with using the Vanishing Point Filter wherein the clipboard copied image just doesn’t show up when doing the paste, maybe there’s some image size limits but I haven’t been able to determine from Adobe what they might be. This way, to go about the perspective change, and using a smart object is a useful idea. Thanks

[@divorcelab]

Fantastic technique, works beautifully. Thank you.

[@jalilrendon4912]

Amazing tutorial, thanks for sharing Jesús!

[@noelyeung8850]

@photoshop training channel Such a good tip. I've been spending hours trying to mock up perspective and manually tweak it so it doesn't look distorted. Just wondering is there a "perspective crop tool" for cylinders. Say I am mocking up a label on a bottle.

[@jimmyjammie9365]

NICE & SMART!
