Make and use displacement maps in Photoshop

In today's video, we pull back the curtain on displacement maps and show you everything you need to know to get started with them. We cover how displacement works on a fundamental level, how to quickly create cool grunge effects from random images, and how to create displacement maps from images to form your artwork to a given surface.
Note: the audio, lighting and general production quality is a work in progress! We want to continue refining our content and delivering at a higher level. We appreciate your feedback in the comments.

This is sick man. I’ve used displacement maps quite a lot with things like t-shirt mockups, but there’s always been a slight feel that it’s a lucky dip whether it’ll give me the exact result, or something horrendous. Think the ratios of the horizontal and vertical displacement is where I’ve been going wrong (always just stuck with the default).

[@coleorloff]

So helpful to see how the effect actually works. Thanks.

[@yuyangluo4995]

Thank you so much for sharing these tips/tutorials! In terms of new content, I'd love to see your opinion on the actual hardware/equipments used for design. I saw you are using PC instead of a Mac, is there a particular reason? Is it because the spec? If so, what do you think is the most important specs for using photoshop? Or in another way, do you have any tips on how to optimize Photoshop for graphic design use? Asking this because I'm always finding Photoshop somehow laggy and slow to use even when I have the a very powerful MacBook Pro 16inch. And there are a lot of videos about how to choose your specs/optimize for other creative flows like video editing or 3D but very few on actual heavy duty graphic design on Photoshop. Hope that makes sense! Thanks! Keep up the good work!

[@BLKMARKET]

Ah, great idea. Perhaps we will shoot a PC build video. To answer in short, Photoshop is a RAM hog, and if you are low on storage space it will bottleneck PS bad, because of the way it uses scratch disks. So as much ram and free disk space as possible. Photoshop can also use GPU for acceleration on several tools, like brushing, zooming and similar.

[@yuyangluo4995]

BLKMARKET PC Build video would be awesome! Been thinking about getting a PC for a while but all the contents out there are for gaming/KZbinrs. Thank you for your tips! 🙏
