How to Create and Use Design Templates in Photoshop
Learn how to create a design once, and apply it to many different objects in Photoshop. Each time you make adjustments to the design, those changes will automatically update on every image.
Place the Design into Images Using Linked Smart Objects
Once you are happy with your original design, save it as a .TIF or .PSD file, that way you can edit the layers at any time.
Next, open an image where you would like your design to show up. Go to ‘File - Place Linked Object’ and choose your design. Transform and scale it into place to match the photo.
To change the perspective of the design, first, rotate and scale it into place. Next, hold CTRL/CMD and click on one of the corners and drag it into perspective. Use visual guides like the corners of a book to guide your perspective transformation.
Repeat these steps as many times as you need. Each time you make changes to the original design, those changes will automatically update on the new documents.
Change Color On Each Instance
If you want to change the color of the design on each image, it is best to do that on the image, not the original design. Use Layer FX like ‘Color Overlay” to change the color of an entire design, or clipped layers to change colors in certain areas.
Any changes you make to the original design will appear automatically, and the new colors applied on the image will update as well.
This will allow you to test different color schemes on different objects, like using light text on a dark background or dark text on a light background.

hi
OH WOW, i literally watched this channel grow from scratch. bless
The "best" photoshop chanel on youtube!
Ok, you did something with the video. Definitely a larger aperture blurring the background but the overall quality really made the footage pop. Whatever you did, I love it.
they recorded at 60 fps. that alone makes a huge difference.
I'm getting major skin discoloration on Aaron's face, at 5:12 for example. Is that a problem on my side or does anybody else see the same?
And it looks like they made the lighting less dynamic as well. (maybe changed the color correcting)
Soooooooooo close to 1 MILLION SUBS! YAY!!!
I just realized this is the best online tutorial experience. Thanks!
Great as always! I would like Aaron talking about his and Phlearn's reality, achievements, and what photography still means to him and to the Phlearn family. Like the Q&A episodes of some years ago.
I d like to hear*
As a Graphic designer I work with Adobe products daily, but even if I have a good knowledge about these programs I still learning from your tutorials, so first of all I wanna say a really big THANK YOU for your job!
Mostly I working with Indesign and Illustrator, and just barely touch PS. However seeing this video I have some suggestions for those who wanna make books (Sorry Aaron I don't wanna trolling your video but in this case I felt that I had to share my personal experiences with all of you).
Making a design template is important since u have to make a few at least before the customer make his/her choice. But if u work with PS instead of ID u have to rebuild the winner design in ID. I tell u why (in my opinion):
PS ID and AI as well can save pdf which is the most common printing format in all over the word, but the method how they create the file is not identical. ID is a publishing software, PS is for editing pictures, AI is for making illustrations and shapes. ID have much more sophisticate settings for creating PDF files, and u can make smaller files with similar design (u cant make identical since all programs works different). So basically Making a design in PS and in ID need takes almost the same time but working with ID u can save some time and can make more professional jobs in the end.
Also u made the template in RGB color space but the final product need to make in CMYK and because of the difference of these color spaces u can't rebuild your plan with same colors which can makes serious problems later between you and your customer. Also, writing text is not a good idea with full color (CMYK) because if the printer has just 0,1% divergence with the 4 plates, the final result is going to be a bit shady or blurry. Of corse if u make bigger texts than regular reading size (8-12 pt), specially if u use medium or bold characters u can do full color text but to printing it, its going to be more costly than with one color (K or any other).
Again, I don't wanna trolling your video, but I want to give some help for those who planning to make a book after seeing your video.
Once again MANY THANKS for your job keep going forward, u make value which is important in these days!
Best regards
my name is Laszló
cu in your next video ;)
just the right timing. thanks.
you are a life saver,Aaron!
This was fantastic! You are such a wizard with photoshop. So inspiring!

HEY AARON CAN YOU SHOW US THE 3D FEATURES ON PHOTOSHOP?

Hi! I am a beginner photographer, and I have been watching your tutorials, and they've been extremely helpful! Can you do a tutorial on how to get rid of sun lines on skin? I didn't realize I wasn't in all shade until after the picture was taken, and we had already moved on. I'm really having difficulties with this, and it's such a great picture! Thank you in advance!!
I was not familiar with the place linked. Very cool, and useful tool. Thanks for sharing the idea
Fantastic tutorial, thanks guys. I´d love to see more videos on Design and "branding". ( I know it´s a huge topic and not completely Photoshop material) But if I had a basic understanding of the field it would help me to figure out what I like and I´d be able to show a professional designer roughly what I want.
after long time i am watching you! PH logo is looking awesome. i love it and Nace you always looking handsome ...
I hit subscribe and like just after 8 minutes watching ... i learnt alot and was totally in, from only the first 8 minutes, what bout when i complete the video and watch other videos
Suggestion for a video: How to reduce gradient banding!!! Thanks for all your tutorials btw :)
Always you number one in photoshop
Can you talk about why you've chosen this new less dynamic lighting and 60 fps format? (love the tuts please never stop!)
This is so awesome! Can't wait to try it!
This is very helpful, as you stated in the video, this is good to show and edit your design on multiple platforms
Thanks for this tutorial!..I love program and love your channel!...Thanks!!!

Man amazing job.. If i may ask for couple tutors... Business card stacks for presentation with linked layers as well as well as mockups for branding purposes maybe.. Thanks a lot! Keep up the good work!
Great video! 👏🏼👍🏼👍🏼❤️🙌🏼
Really good tutorial, as always, informative and interesting. Thanks Phlearn.
These videos are just amazing !
Aaron & Phlearn,
Great video as always. I've got a question for you:
I've wondered this for a while, but a lot of your photos (especially those in your intro) look like something out of a fantasy world. They almost look more like paintings than photographs... I'm not a professional photographer so I can't put my finger on what makes this so. Can you try to explain some of the qualities that give your photos this characteristic??
Hopefully you understand what I'm getting at, because I'm not exactly sure how to ask the right questions.
Thanks!
Jack
NICE!
cool tutorial. many thanks for sharing your great skills
Nice! I learned so much from this. Thank you.
Hi There, I'm very thankful to you. This was a great session of learning indeed. Best Regards, Rana
Great videos. I've got a question about the making of your videos. What kind of setup do you guys use to film the in-person portions of the tutorials? Such as what camera, lighting, camera & lighting setup and settings? The videos are so clear and professional looking. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!
I like the frame rate of the video. +1
I enjoyed the video. Thanks!
Hi Aaron!! I made a great discovery with your channel. Since I'm subscribed to you, I've discovered how much I love photoshop and post-production in general. Now, I need your help: I'm planning to get a "drawing tablet" like yours (wacom tablet?). The thing is that I've no idea of what model or label or anything is the most appropiate for me, as a beginner. Wich one would you recommend me? You would make my day If you could list me some affordable options. Thaaaaaank you !!!!!!!!!!!
I love this tutorial! thank you for teaching me so much
That's pretty cool, may i know how to play with colors, Like i have 5 object (layers) and all of them are getting color from a parent layer, if i change the color of parent layer the rest changes as well. Thanks
Thanks to you Aaron, for this awesome tutorial! :D :D "Ciao" from Italy
Love you Phamily
This is really cool! Thanks
I'd like to see how to photoshop black on black UV spotting. I'd love to know how to simulate that. I've had lots of requests for that on business cards.

My suggestion is How to do the Rembrandt Lighting Technic completly in Photoshop, Camera Raw or Lightroom... not with real light, only with software! Thanks!!!
You're a real inspiration! thanks man.
What if I wanted the circle or the text to have to texture of the book (or card)?
Excellant tutorial. Is this only possible in photoshop CC? Thank you for your time and expertise.

but I have a question, what if I have colored book background?
great tut bro!
could you show in a video how to handle this with round objects? say i want to put a logo on an apple, what would i do?
I am in AWE.
Thanks so much. Just learning PS to make my book covers...but I'm hooked. Now want to do more and more. :) Will use these new skills to make a promo page with four book covers on perspective books to place onto my website. :) Thanks so much. Is there a good shortcut list somewhere? Guess I'll just have to keep watching your tutorials! Love how you are so conversant with it. A goal. Another one. LOL Lizzi Thompson, writing as Lizzi Tremayne Thanks again. L-

I just saw something so cool...It's called " Cinemagraph. "....will you please do a tut on this.

Hi there, First of all thank you so much for uploading such amazing tutorials, it has really helped me learn a lot. A question or a request I do have for maybe a future video is that often when editing the image it looks great on computers but when you upload it on instagram or view it on mobile phones it loses most of the details and work put into it. So is there any way to balance this out or a way to export it as most people will see the image on their phones on instagram and it sucks that the image isn't what it started out to be.
hi there...was looking for some help,came a cross to your video,want ask you but first i am a writer-Author and i really dont know who to design my books- what i have is Macbook pro and CS6 but should i take a course in book design ? or without a course it is possible to learn?
Thanks for this tutorial!! Question for you: I created a book cover but in a flat design, as in creating a flat 6x9 book cover front, spine, back. What would you suggest so that i am able to use a place linked file? I Would love to be able to make a 3D version of the book cover i created. Thank you for your time!

Team phlearn,
i've a doubt about photograph, i've a D90 and i'm starting in the photograph world some months ago, and i want to know ""How I can transmit the same color that i'm seeing(in the moment), in the photo that i'll take??"" my problem is that i never got the same color that i saw , in the photo that i took. Can you do a video about that?? Or just answer my doubt?? Thank you so much for your tutorials, keep do it !!!I'm really sorry about my english, i'm still learning english so.. sorry :).
I already have a book cover design, but I need to make the spine and back cover. So where do I get the template dimensions for a book and how to set up in photoshop?
could you please make a tutorial about creating a surreal art.
maybe do a video on how to face swap?
Hi Aaron, I tried to do this with a PSD template file and I couldn't get it to update on the document that I tried to place it in. I work with CS6 and used the 'Place... ' but when saving the template file after making a change, it doesn't automatically update in the other document. How do I get it to work, if possible?
How do you do the spine and back cover then?
so, what's the difference between psd and tiff file?
awesome ~
which digital pad do you use?
Can you guys show us how to make a website design?
Aaron did you just change the name of your channel? I notice its like shorter than usual
