" pixel perfect -- on. The show actually Photoshop stuff and whatever else comes up now. I was and in last week and I ID email saying hey we're way yet I was and it's nice to be back and I'm sorry that we -- Now I gotta read my little might add here want to thank my sponsors godaddy.com. Specials here says get 96 dollars and for extras with your domain name godaddy.com. Each domain includes free hosting with a web site -- a free blog and complete email and much more. Just and political pixel when you see it screen when you check out and -- dot com domain name for just 695. A year. Some restrictions apply -- flight details the pop up about that a cat. So now. I also got lot of emails of people that know that I introduced a new meaning at that Photoshop world month ago. And archivists out of my site when it pleases my site is because it's not actually finished. A got to do a certain points I could show that bush world but it's still some little find need to -- that added so one. So right here on -- screen we have call -- have Ron it's my news piece it looks vintage but to me that's still some little details that have to be done. Like yeah autism and a napkin over here and easier than that is just a little too thin on his edge. To me that's not done I have to go and -- just the last minute details to make it look right. And yeah you might say it's kind of a self portrait -- getting real close of news that I am right there on the on the salt and pepper shakers on top but there's a -- his pain. Now covered so what I've done with this and his show one thing I want to -- stressed that mentioned before about studying reality. Looking how things work right well I don't -- any program I just don't go in there and try to guess -- something's gonna look I actually study reality. Zoom in over here on this glass up here. Way appear as a little edge of the last -- reflection I didn't hear the reflection of the tablecloth on that section glass. Now to get that right. I wasn't sure how it's going to look and so on so I went and actually studied things have a file right here. Reflection study and if you I've done I took a section of the table -- and I printed it on our regularly Israelis who blacking and and I. Took a little tiny merit that we see right here in the mirror and they've done outside of opinion Xbox and I just put the position that I studied -- that reflection was working. So I'm studying reality and have an actual glass and the tablecloth. But I had my illustration of the tablecloth site create a group on the table button and instead and Hitler what was happening how would be. The little blocks being distorted and so on how they work with that particular angle. So I set up a little model myself. And that's something to do so try to guess how light is gonna hit I wish I was gonna work and so one. Just take a couple objects and toys whatever it is or just look out the window things and see how things work that way you get an accurate. Visual. Now I want to talk about that tablecloth that's gonna talk about here. Now the original pattern. And -- the actual file for the pattern itself. That's gonna hear this is minimizes guys who see the pattern the pattern actually started in illustrator. And it's been a lot of requests for illustrators so a couple of weeks and one -- shows on illustrator showing you some of the features that are that are in that program to make it so powerful it's part of the creative suite so most of you have it already. I've shown you some power in that program. And it is a program that pretty much start everything -- that's my drawing. That's right going there and create all of the visuals the shapes and so on. That different Photoshop where -- the final image that's red. The textures and stuff like that but all it starts in molesters to discuss illustrator few weeks. So here -- the pattern. To do it shows you how the patterns started. We're back here. As always I thought over the blank screen. And in there I just created this one little block. Zoom in on it in to see it it's just some shapes. Very simple shapes that went there with some lines and system rush that is stroke breast -- the one even so one. As a whole episode on brushes you go back and see that was done at blue white and stuff just a little randomness to. And there I edit delete -- that. That is what was created in illustrator that -- shape right there was an illustrator is one shape which are duplicated around and so on and I get added. Pull back just a little. And I edit a second one. Now it is slightly different -- that right here these little white tones that effort. And so on at a variety I don't want to have to as one block and then -- many times -- varieties when you look at that looks like each block is different. Now if you study post you -- that the -- will be in the lower left is exactly the block on the -- on the -- right. But even activist and -- doesn't going to be displaced so it'll be randomness all over the place but I started demand this right here at this level right now. And -- another that'll. Blue rose -- down -- which has a background behind it again rush a simple brush that's changing in size. Randomly so on creating -- speckled behind it. Then as a whole series of votes again -- variety in each -- start to look different. There's some blocks in here which is just a series of filters. Basically noise. Pixel late find edges. That's article -- tones and there. And that texture. Right on top of that the same textures going to be used later to display Steve and higher image so that it -- that real heavily kind of an effect. And there -- some guides is the guides and he actually used originally to know anything's going to fall so once I had that does shape created. I landed need to see all the other patterns and in place I wouldn't I created my actual pattern now to create the pattern. I turn on the guys I women are selected an area right here where they intersect. Inside. Centre of the powder. Threats where I got just that little square -- that was my pattern right there that whole shape. Right so we have the little step and repeat going on the three sides that a missing over here are being replicated here here and so on. -- So now once that was all done. I fill the entire thing with the pattern now this file here is actually larger. Then the real file I was going to create phenomena going there and create a new file you see why it's larger. We say new line. And the actual file was much bigger and and this was going to be. There's right now this is right now is 24 by sixteen at 300. So I'm gonna do is make a sixteen by twelve. At 300 so make this sixteen. -- twelve. At 300. The actual file was fifteen by -- are actually twenty by fifteen at 480. -- those numbers. Fifteen right when he because -- gave back in the day when I used to work traditionally. I would order art supplies stored by my -- for -- treatment illustrations -- came in fifteen by twenty. Also fifteen by twenty is divisible by just about everything 148 and 640 by 480 and 24 X 768 all of those are proportioned to fifty might want. So I don't fit in -- when he and wife for 480 PPI. Well 300 is not gonna give me enough resolution to create the I want an even at 480 sometimes night enough. Some elements are created at 600 or 1200 PPI in article and you get a lot of buying detail. Which then bring it down to the -- that I need for final."
" Image and nice clear image but ray Gifford purposes demo -- it 300 click okay and as my file. So I'm gonna do is I'm gonna take my idea tablecloth back here that. Layered it has a pattern and it's gonna drag it over onto this file here Obama should keep -- constrained portions when it came in fact it dollar. -- Now I have this. Go in here and zoom out. He might work area -- that created much bigger is that the distort it's. Going it to my distortion. Transform and distort. And you can see that much larger than the actual image is gonna move it over into this area here. And grab this area and to bring it down like that bring this guy in like that. Way over says that to get this kind of distortion. Seen here. And once I have to shape the way I why -- proposed more. Click okay. And it happens. It is now distorted in Tibet. And area nice to have that exits on the outside and missions to this so when there was -- to a select all -- today. And -- and and crop it. Now that excess stuff on the outside is gone now once this was done. If you look at the -- it was a -- little -- a slight movement to -- does not mean completely flat on -- on the table so. I created this this is a displacement map and I've been quite a few shows -- used displaced filters. Now when you look at keeping you see that right and here's you have is a little bubbling going on right in this area here. And I've been here. And here you see where the table while this has been just a little bit it's a very bright sun in his outdoor cafe. Very bright sun so. Yeah privacy a lot of different shadows and it just slightly highlights the -- here. And in there and a slight very slight extremely slight. So I use this displacement map. To bend the tablecloth. And you needed dark says you know a minute and move things down into the right and the whites and move things up and that left the gray area. 50% -- density will have no effect this just in these particular areas that my table while it's gonna end. So. I go in here and take this tablecloth which is that they are right there and -- filter distort. -- And I would exaggerated. In the actual mania use like three -- war but he analytical and and faith when he and twenty. Really gonna exaggerate this -- click okay and asked before that displacement map a going to look for it. And it's right here. Open it and you see that it's going to bend at the cloth in the right places they'd see -- happened right in there. So now the final thing I can take this image. And put it in the position right on top of this guy. Because that is a create created the displacement so that's gonna give me the effect that one and put it into a different note I'd say overlay. It just becomes this little exaggerated and -- is reduced capacity. Considerably such -- get these little slight highlights and shadows in the areas where it. That's basically how the background was created -- that -- Now this could be applied to so many different things you can have -- a gravel. Stone textures you're gonna apply to the ground and just treatment of little rebels who do the same thing. How are you apply that technique depends on what is your screen such as -- to give you an idea. How this and started. The basic cable while next show and more complicated it. Popular something but it's remember the play that's way to learn is to sit there and play. See you next week."
