#2 – following the tutorial -recreate the same style animation using a company logo:
Do the current school logo plus 1 other.
Title: School Logo

Pick one - or get your own - remove the background - get to work. Extrude logo and text separately.

Title: company Logo

#3- create your first name at: http://www.graffiticreator.net/

Title: My name

1.       Remove background and inside letters too (magic wand tool)

2.       Rasterize the layer if it is a smart object.

3.       Spread letters apart (lasso tool, move tool)

4.       Just save as a gif - option 1

 

Separate the letters first

Rotate (minimum 4 ) the letters:  Clockwise – counter clockwise – flip up- flip down - combos

 

 

 

 

Things to think about:

Keep a copy of the original image for each separate letter.

Duplicate name – mask a letter –then right click on the mask ‘Apply layer mask’

Repeat for each of the 4 letters.

If you get an ERROR message stating the layer is too complex

CTRL the object – shrink it a very tiny amount – then extrude it again or – delete the layer and rebuild it.

This is a known Photoshop bug.

Con’t…

After centering the letter – make sure to re-space it – if it appears too close to the next letter.

This time play with shadows – and rotating in the X, Y and Z plane and combinations of…

 

Add a cool background or gradient.

Do not forget to reset the end of the work area – STEP 10

Also resize to at least 50% when saving as an animated GIF

 

#4- Create a twisted animation : have the thing spin -and slide at different times- not at the same time. These objects must also move across the screen - not just flip. You can also resize - so do it!
