    Ben, you're incredible! That 50% Grey level for the grain, that's a killer trick!!!

    • @m.a8735
      @m.a8735 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      You can even try blurring the noise if you still feel it's too much, by adding a slight gaussian blur effect to your smart object as well (that you can get rid of later if you didn't like it)
      And an easy way to create a 50% grey layer is to press CTRL + Shift + N and from the new layer window set the blend mode to overlay then check the "Fill with overlay-neutral color (50% gray)" box.
      I got this trick from PixImperfect composting tuts.

      Pls tell me why is 50% grey not affecting the underlying layers, pls tell?????????

    • @EugeneOneguine
      @EugeneOneguine ปีที่แล้ว

      @@HarshitRalhan Because the blending mode is an overlay, which means it's going to blend with your colours. Now, since the overlay is only grey, with no other colours, the only thing that'll get blended is the "whiteness" and "blackness", in other words, the luminosity. If your overlay is 100% black, it'll darken your image, 100% white, it'll brighten it. Now, 50% white and 50% black, which is the grey he did here, won't do anything to the colours or the luminosity. Only the texture of the fill will impact the other layers, which is what happen when he gives a grained texture to the fill.

    @Ben Marriott A shortcut for the 50% gray fill: Shift + Cmd + N opens a window to create a new layer. In the Mode dropdown, select Overlay, then check the tickbox underneath that says Fill with Overlay-neutral color (50% gray). Shave a few seconds off your workflow!

    This further enhances our belief that Photoshop is a must have design tool. Even with a small tutorial like this, it explores an exciting element and begins to unearth the endless possibilities you have with these tools. Your instructions are very easy to follow and will certainly help a lot of people out.

Curious on how to get the gradient layers ready for animation in After Effects.
