" Hi there welcome to another episode pixel for food lever on to ride shows you whatever happens. Ethnic it was a pretty insane without the brown did you notice that he was using a mouse. It's -- haven't kept using the mouse on the side about it okay I felt like my absentee care -- love working with. I mentioned this week that. I got back from Photoshop world. Coming weeks against some interviews some pretty interesting highlights from Photoshop world whereas with some stuff really intends. The world of three he is really moving into the world of Photoshop. See some stuff in the future. Well I think my idea sponsors godaddy.com. Right yeah I've been breeding these little pieces of paper now for. Almost fifty episodes and actually went and tried them recently actually when he used it and it's not bad -- and they claim it's right up there. So like prison right now if you want to make an impact online godaddy.com. Has what you need. Dot com names for as low as one dollar and 99 cents plus world class hosting. Fast and easy website building and so much more they really are quite an office. And it you type in the code did you see him right there. Hope pixel four. No before when YouTube but then -- when you -- check out. You'll save an additional 15%. On any order of 35 dollars and more. The restrictions usual it's more copies -- that stuff right okay. So now let's get into. Photoshop. I do a little war effect it is something that a lot of people have requested and the last week at Photoshop well actually. Got this quote that my friend Corey barker who did this very same thing bill differently. You put a few different elements and actually. To two different element -- combining both into one. But it's creating banks throwing water and then when it hits its classes. And actually in a couple weeks Tennessee court we do one of those exact demos in a different in a different way. Right now I've got on the screen here I have this little. Public -- and in between I have this little love Leonard here where I've created this little strike at a stripe. I created exactly the same way I'm about to create the vertical downpour of the water. I discredited those types it becomes like the surface of the war where received under the water and above the water. But I do don't create a new -- Right on top which I'm gonna go ahead and fill as they edit fill. And I'm gonna Philip."

" 50% -- nice neutral density. Click okay. Now on top of this and it -- some texture and and go to my filters again and actually what it is just a whole bunch of different filters being used it. I donated to my filters and radio on the render a have a thing called fibers. Fibers and fibers legacy -- and settings -- going to play around these things a little it's a nice looking fibers going on there and -- down to about one there. And click okay I get all these little fibers. And blurred photos and go ahead and run those. And it'll cost you ambler. I was implant that's pushed is up to about may be that's they've been and -- content. Click okay now it's got all these little kind of dark shapes in there right I'm gonna give it another filter. And give the motion blur full. Motion blur filter which I'm going to set the Angleton ninety's so it straight up and down and I'm gonna -- Distance up quite a bit tonight -- about -- say about 139. Click okay they have got these long streaks. And instead get that -- of watery effect right. I'll give it another filter. And I went on here and under my artistic have a thing called plastic wrap. I used at some episodes ago to create a film of water on sidewalk well here it's gonna continue our little watery effect. That brings up -- to wrap. And ever gonna push the -- strength on the way to the 28 am going to bring my head detailed down. All the way down and -- us move this up. About may go about fifteen. And click okay and I got these nice little streaks happening there we give it yet another affect. And -- my filters again and this time under us sketch I haven't been cool crawl. And give it crawl. And there we have this Chrome. I'm one of my home idea tell -- the smoothness. And push up BD to help active -- movement -- ago in axis movement that. Push that up with being Vito battles in orbit this time go so that this effect happening click okay. That got all this craziness happening. I'm gonna do one thing to do is I'm gonna go to -- edit and a -- of fade Chrome where we can kind of lessen the amount. But I don't lessen the amount weren't going to do is gonna change the motive it change the mode. To overlay. Which as you see what happened there sort of bring all my highlights stronger again a click okay now. If -- effect on that -- I'm gonna change the mode of the layer itself. To hard light. That brings up all that nice blue color and any. As you can see there nowadays I'm gonna pull back a little bit to pull back Tennessee some might work area there and now gonna do is on the war this time. Compress it altogether and twist it around so it starts to look like water -- flowing down. We -- here it to my edit transform and go to might warp and take the outer corners just cut up pull the man well mentors to -- Like that. Let's get down here to. And all the way and make an -- Really thin. Those shape you like that now these handles on the outside the outside -- and Monica push and really exaggerate this has stressed that really bended. Another kind of make them overlapping each other and twist and turn to say they would these guys appear to bring this guy over. We can see what's happening I'm really twisting these weird shapes all around and creating -- things kind of effect like this and violence -- got it goin' in they would be some more. To have some really nice looking kind of bend. Are right. Am I haven't followed this don't you go. Once we have all those. -- and -- and it does today don't have the water just slowing down. Not gonna -- layer -- this is gonna add a layer mask and I'm going to get it with the little black its -- softest brush here. I'm just gonna throw little black right in this area just to soften it up down now awarded slowing down if it's sad that water below its gonna splash -- So."

" another layer on top -- I'm gonna go in here and doubt use white for my color and my paintbrush and use a -- prospectus -- here. Which right now you know is just gonna make a little streak right and we've. Had a whole episode on the Russians right so well to do than going to my brush engine and that's going to -- and little space in tennis."

" I'm gonna go to my shape dynamics and shape dynamics and say -- both sides here. Oh my pen pressure and -- little angled dinner but never got that. That's real small brush and -- make it bigger that's going to make this -- nice to be even bigger. -- nice big brush. To -- and I'm just gonna go and -- and start to draw all these weird little splatters all over the place to make it a big mess. -- twists like that -- got. -- the area. And now. I got black wife in my colors. I'm going -- locked the transparency for that because now given another felt. In fact if I don't like transparency what what would happen would give the filter render claps. Yeah I thought the whole layer it's on -- a little lock the transparency so the effect is gonna happen only in the -- the pixels which are all the pencils and -- that. Little messy area and you don't have as -- render. Class fanatic -- limited to that space inside Tibet. I'm gonna start giving that the watery fact that we did before. Which if you remembered the first thing we did -- we went in there and games and plastic wrap. Slowly the settings to say before and I'm gonna go in there and give it my little love. Chrome."

" Click okay I'm gonna fade back to Chrome just like it did before. By putting it into overlay remote making it brighter. Click okay. Change to moan of the overall there too hard like to sect before and now we create the -- I'm going to -- this. So I go into my and that's just bring it a couple of minutes would appear. To -- to listeners would get some room that here because what I'm going to do went on to transform. Go to war now. When you play with a walk to and I think I've. Done this before if you guys you can grab the little handles and the little corners and stuff. You can also grab the actual blocks and size alone who's gonna grab the center block and drag it. All the way down here. Pick and dragging the block the send to block itself which is creating this effect. I let that happen. There's it's not gonna shrink this down on the don't scale on this to make a little smaller. Put into position right about there. That looks good. And I'm gonna give it one more war. Attitude position I'm going there give it war began and wanted to do this time I'm gonna pull out. Besides. -- pull them out to start to add a little more of a curvature too my little. Splash. It just like that. Make that happen if I want -- to view a strong Mac and duplicate that layer. Duplicated -- now it's much stronger put one on -- in the evident both in hard like I'm gonna go ahead and do a little merge down some of -- become one. To affect that and now. I'm going to put an end position right about where I wanted and then -- might smudge tool that's the little finger on here again nice big size for the smudge tool. I'm just gonna kind of push. These guys and that unlocked the transparency for it at this point product. Punch it around a little bit but that's so even down below there and just kind of round and then that little flash there in the middle and get a smaller brush. And just kind of push goes up to meet the splash that's happening kind of push those colors down. Creating this nice little splash back. And they got we have some water investors. Pouring down and splashing into the pool. And remember it's the actual techniques how are you applying the colors you use all these factors will change the overall look of the scene. Popular something from that. Hope to see you next week."
