Creating glass typography in Photoshop and Illustrator in 3 minutes
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 18 มิ.ย. 2024
- Photoshop’s Displacement Distort filter can be a pretty powerful tool in achieving realistic results for your graphic design projects. My favourite way to use it is for creating glass typography. Together with the power of Illustrator’s 3D tool this comes in handy for generating cool typographic posters.
(Feel free to pause and playback if the video too fast. Originally tutorial was intended for 90 sec playback)
Hope you enjoy this tutorial and I’d love to see your artworks using this technique.

I like how you explained *why* you’re doing some of the steps in this video! Super helpful
thanks, happy to help
Wow!!! It really helped that you uploaded the longer version here. I tried to repeat the steps from your instagram reel, but I didn't notice the step where you turned down the fill for the "server" in Photoshop from 100% to 0%, before you started to create the inner shadows and that's what I missed... And all the time I couldn't figure out why your letters were so see-through and mine were black hahaha I was still able to achieve some nice glass effects, but I'm going to try it again. Thank you for that cool tutorial!!! 😍
thanks, glad it helped, hopefully I've passed the logic. will try and be clearer next time
Thanks for the tutorial! Made a lovely poster!
Glad to help. Show me

🔥🔥🔥
I am so sorry for my comment Anton! The tutorial is great, and I was just in a bad mood lol, trying to get a glass effect done for a project on a tight deadline, and I couldn't follow. My apologies ❤, and yes I did find the longer tutorial on this effect later 😊😊!
Amazing job!!& thank you very much for the tutorial:) Can I just ask you which kind of material did you choose in Ai for the Pillowlava font?
Thanks, the material was set to Default!
nice work 💕💕

thanks i didn't get it at first time but ill will try again i got the gist displacement map tho
it's the most important part, essentially practicing it helps to understand it better, let me know if anything
great vid 🎉
thanks ❤🤜
NOICE!
🙏 ta
Thanks bro
you're welcome
Nice lesson
thanks a lot, glad you enjoyed 🙏
I don't know anything about creating such artwork. I just love to look at it. You are a genius. Can I buy your posters?
🥰🥰 wich one do you want to buy?
so nice bro
cheers bro 🙏
Thank you so much!!! Please, can you write what font you use?🙏🏻😍
Fonts are available in description
👋 it’s amazing! , question…what document size on photoshop?
any size you want
Can you explain what was the purpose of the black layer and turning everything into a smart object at 2:06?
Sure, thanks for asking:
1. If you look at my layers you'll see that my background at that time consisted of Colour Fill (which does not keep canvas size/proportions), so painting a New Layer black, automatically set's it to be the same size as my canvas proportions. Think of it as a concrete upon which the whole structure stands on. (BTW you can create that New Layer at the beginning, I've just forgotten it at first)
2. Turning everything into a Smart Object allows you unify all the Layers in to ONE composition to be able to apply the Distortion Mask effect to. You can also unify all by pressing CMD+E but you won't be able to tweak distortion preferences after that.
Hope that helps.
how did you link levels to specific layer in 1:09? for me it transforms the whole thing lighter not only letters
Create a clipping mask. Hold down Alt (Option in Mac OS), position the pointer over the line dividing two layers in the Layers panel and then click.
Thank you!!! Great tutorial!
That was cool man thx. Can you explain why do you add and delete the black layer? I lost you there
thanks 🙏 if you mean the part on 2:08 - it's just a quickest way to set the displacement mask to be the same dimensions as your original comp. Black layer (or any other colour) is a dimension setter, you should get rid of it after 👍 hope that helps
Idk if it's my computer, but when I go to make the 3d typography in illustrator, it looks blurred and the edges loose sharpness, so when I paste it to ps it looks the same :((
Try doing the following things: 1. set the 3d type to be minimum 250px per a letter. 2. Go to Effects > Document Raster Effect Settings > Set resolution to 300ppi minimum 3. When Rendering make sure you click High in Quality options. Hope it helps 👍
when you post it into photoshop, you do it as a smart
object? as my text isn't editing like yours
If you mean the 3d 'SERVER' text brought in from Illustrator, then yes. It's better to keep in as a Smart Object as it allows you to go back and forth with any additional amends. Also if you want, you could keep text live before applying 3d and Materials to it. It doesn't have to be 'Expanded'. Let me know if it works
Proper struggling with the inner shadow settings, trying to copy exactly what you did but it just isn't looking how yours does!
It's ok, just play around, try increasing values, smoothen and play with their opacity, it's all about the balance, which different people feel differently!
Hello. At 2:36 when I click on my mask psd file and click open the glass distortion effect is added but it has no effect on my type underneath. Any idea why this is happening? Thanks!
run through the process once again, double check the settings of the distortion mask is in high contrast BW (saved as psd), make sure you've made the selection of the type on the layer you want that effect to apply. Try tweaking the distortion settings from low to very high. Make sure your distortion mask file set to the same size as your composition file.
Hey if you're still struggling replicating this effect, I've made a full tutorial on creating glass typography, have a look and let me know if you still got questions: th-cam.com/video/FbkGyl0YR6Y/w-d-xo.html
Please could I get your inner shadow settings, want to replicate the same colours and percentages you have but struggling to keep up
Hey thanks for the feedback. I wouldn't want to advice on the exact figures as I'd like you all try yourself to get the unique result. Alternatively you could pause the video and take a screenshot. Good luck
Everything looks amazing but when i download the final piece my 3D glass type keeps changing blue, any tips on how to fix that ?
how do you mean download?
@@naturetonyx This is happening to me too. When I tried to save the psd file as a png or jpeg, the glass turns blue when exporting
@@alanabrbot9322 have you tried Saving as a Tiff, or Saving For Web? Also have you tried Flattening Image?
@@alanabrbot9322 hey both, if you're still struggling replicating this effect, I've made a full tutorial on creating glass typography, have a look and let me know if you still got questions: th-cam.com/video/FbkGyl0YR6Y/w-d-xo.html
The tutorial is great but I'm following all the steps and doesn't work the same in my black object with the global illumination. I try another lighter color than black and the 3D effect works properly.
Any Idea if what is happening?!
Thanks for the feedback. I actually did not expect this much attention to my video hence it was done for those who get the basic 3D principles. Since people had lots of Q's I've made a proper tutorial with this matter: th-cam.com/video/FbkGyl0YR6Y/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=AntonBurmistrov have a try and let me know if it works
У меня в слою shadow непрозрачный при редактировании, что я не так делаю?
Привет, я тут сделал полное видео-руководство по созданию стеклянной типографики, смотри и дай знать если останутся вопросы: th-cam.com/video/FbkGyl0YR6Y/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for your helpful guidance! I set all the values and steps as yours but no thing happen when applying Distortion Displace ((: I do it do it again and the result stays the same. Please help me out 😭😭😭
It's got to be an error somewhere along the line of the process or something you've missed, or even perhaps I've missed mentioning. But first I'd like to recommend watching a video about distortion in photoshop somewhere on youtube?
@@naturetonyx yes, you’re right! there’s something error and surely about making distortion map, I searched other tutorials video about this step but couldn’t figure anything helpful. It would be great if can you please send me your PSD files? 🥹 Sorry if this one annoying you …
@@mynguyen4216 can't send my files, but please have a look at this tutorial on my instagram first: instagram.com/p/CtY66F4gV6Z/
@@naturetonyx thank you! It sounds silly but I can’t go to sleep till I finish it, gonna watch this tutorial and hope it works. Thanks again for your help 🙏🫶

This font is amazing, whats it called?
It's under video description 😉
@@naturetonyx oeps!! i didn't see haha, sorry 😳
can someone explain how he did the layer masks at 0:48 please
copied the 3D comp from Illustrator and pasted in to the photoshop
What I mean is the Knockout and the mask on ellipse, I’m not really getting it but it looks very cool

for some reason i can't copy and paste the 3d object into photoshop, am i doing something wrong? :")
try this: smallbusiness.chron.com/copy-paste-illustrator-photoshop-not-working-81218.html
А чем можно заменить эффект 3d and materials? В моей версии адоба 2019 года его нет(
Они походу убрали 3д из фотошопа, чтобы добавить в иллюстратор в 2022м. Я бы попробовал симулировать 3д эффект в Layer Styles при помощи Bevel & Emboss. Можно настраивать свет с одной стороны в одном лейере, потом копировать и наслаивать лэйеры один на другой, меняя направления света. Главное не забывать убирать заливку (Fill) у верхних лейеров чтобы проникал только эффект 👌
@@naturetonyxСпасибо большое за развернутый ответ!
im sorry but this tutorial is incredibly hard to follow, i have been trying for two days. Its way too fast, you barely explain anything you re doing and the portrait format of the video makes it even harder to see whats going on. its a shame, i really like your style
yeah I've basically just reuploaded the tiktok format in to here :D but I suppose I could make this tutorial for YT too, bear with me...

I feel like this is possible just using photoshop too? I'll try and get back to edit my comment haha
yeah, and obviously in 3d, unless you've got other softwares you're using?
Beautiful
thank you 🙏
боюсь, мой ноут взорвётся, но я хочу это попробовать :D
валяй, если не ответишь я пойму, что он все же взорвался 😀
can't do 3d effects in Illutrator((( Do all that you says, but don't work(
Could you describe at what point it stops working?
@@naturetonyx I had to switch the roghness to 0,45 in the object tab and it changed almost everything with the lighting!
Maybe that's it

Can you tell me font name?

Can you make this video longer and give us more detail? It is so complicated and fast. Couldn't understand the stages.
preparing the video...
@@naturetonyx thanks a lot.

dude this tutorial blows. i got about halfway through and learned a few new things which im appreciative of, but come on lmao
sure it cannot be for everyone, but what do you think needs to be better?
@@naturetonyx tutorials should never be sized to the screen of an iphone, it's impossible to understand the full context of what you're doing - if you're sharing to reels for promotion purposes, awesome, but i didn't realize it was cropped and cutting out important steps until i couldnt move forward any further. another big hiccup for me was the lack of distinction between photoshop and illustrator, you kinda just jumped into illustrator, which looks very similar to photoshop, so it was like wait, what menu is he on now? haha. dont mean to give you a hard time but when somebody is following what youre saying step by step it's essential to show them everything (as dumbed down as possible) and not glaze over things like people already know what you're doing.
this tutorial is so hard to follow for someone who is not as expeerienced.... it would be great to see a slower more detailed version
coming soon, keep your eyes peeled

BRO WTF ARE YOU DOING?
Messing with you
Can't do shit cuz you are too fast..
check my other video with blue thumb - it's slower 👌
This is pretty annoying, you are working so fast, Theres no way to actually follow what you're doing, not sure if this for you to get more views on this video or what! ugh
sorry if this annoys you, but I've repurposed this video initially created for instagram. I have made longer in-depth tutorial about creating this glass effect, hope it helps this time > th-cam.com/video/FbkGyl0YR6Y/w-d-xo.html
i think i thumbled something with the mask, the distortion is not that smooth, its kinda spikey, but it still looks good i guess
double check the following: 1 same size of the canvas of both - original composition and distortion mask (they should be the same. 2. position of the typography should be the same on both files 3. check the contrast layers on the distortion mask file, don't make it too sharp 4. try tweaking distortion parameters from 5 to 40, and see if that helps 👍
