Convert Bevel and Emboss Effect into Separate Layers

I was following a tutorial for making paint drips at http://www.planetphotoshop.com/dripping-color.html.
I am not sure which version of Photoshop was being used in the video. Maybe CS3 or 4? It looks like the video was created in 2008? Towards the end of tutorial (about the last 1/4), he converts the Bevel and Emboss effect into separate layers in order to delete the effect from the top and sides of the image. I can't seem to locate the "Create Layers" option when I control+mouse click on the layer. Is the "Create Layers" listed some place else or is there another way to remove the Bevel and Emboss effects from the top and sides only?

Layer > Layer Style > Create Layers
Which version do you work with?

  • Bevel and Embossed text

    Hey guys...just wondering if anyone has a nice way of re-creating a Photoshop Bevel and Emboss effect for the text in Motion 3. I get a similar effect using the INDENT filter, but it's just not the same. Any thoughts?

    Hi,
    welcome to the posts. NIce alias name, classy!
    I had to look over the project again and it took me some time to sort it out. I made it in M2 and i think M3 does something funky.
    The layer with the little t is the text layer. Should have called it something else like "indented text" to make it clearer I guess. In answer to your question the text layers blend mode is set to stencil luma which make it act like a stencil, and therefore shows the paper layer below. Then there is another paper layer below that to give the background. If you didnt do the stenciled paper layer it would look like some coloured text indented into the paper, which wasnt the original brief.
    The spotlight is an M2 construct. Now of course we have lights in M3 so it becomes a bit easier.
    Just a point to clarify. 'parenting' is really an AfterEffects idea, something that Motion doesnt do. instead you have to put things in groups, a bit like comping in AE, but more flexible.

  • Bevel and emboss like Photoshop

    Is there any easy way to get something like the 'bevel and emboss' effect in Photoshop? Short of bringing the paths into Photoshop and applying it there, of course...
    I was toying a little bit with doing something like that using the drop shadow effect, but the shadow has to come on the inside... Any tips?
    I would prefer to have it as a live effect - I have done it manually with vectors by duplicating/offsetting/trimming, but it is a fair bit of work...

    function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
    Please Adobe, can't we have this as a raster effect in the next version of Illy!
    Please, NO.
    Provide ordinary, tidy, efficient 2D-based bevel and extrude VECTOR path operations. Long overdue.

  • What are bevel and emboss styles ?

    what are bevel and emboss styles?

    Hi Garry,
    Check out this video tutorial on Bevel and Emboss effects:

  • Bevel and Emboss filters?

    It appears to me that Motion 1 doesn't have the same degree of filters for text that Photoshop does, or at least I haven't found them yet.
    I did find the bevel border but that does not bevel the individual letters. I also found the color emboss in the stylistic group but that doesn't have near the capability that Photoshop does.
    I realize I could create letters in Photoshop and import them but that seems inefficient.
    Can anyone recommend any 3rd party filters that will accomplish the bevel and emboss effects directly in Motion?
    Hopefully at a reasonable price.
    Thanks for any help,
    Ken

    Specialcase,
    Thanks for the response.
    I'm sure I'm as blind as a bat, but when I go to "add filter" with a text word selected in my copy of Motion 1.01 and choose "stylize", there is no word that begins with an "i" anywhere in the list. Indent is just not there.
    Could that be a feature only in Motion 2? Or, do you think I might have a corrupt list of filters?

  • Photoshop text + bevel and emboss on TRANSPARENT background?

    I've created my Photoshop title images with text + bevel and emboss, on a transparent background.
    I've Rasterized the type and I've merged down leaving the transparent background (not flattened) then saved as .psd or .tif (with layers).
    When I import into FCP I either get the text WITH bevel and emboss, on a WHITE background or text WITHOUT bevel and emboss, on a TRANSPARENT background.
    Strange thing is, I've imported Photoshop images with transparent backgrounds into FCP several times before and although I can't say I've never had problems, I've always managed to work it out quite easily. Not this time, I'm baffled and seriously considering getting cross!

    Hello,
    I have tried the Ken Stone method (thank God for that guy...) but I am loosing my drop shadow and bevel effects on the text once the file is imported in FCP.. I used the NTSC preset with Transparent background in Photoshop. What am I missing? I have looked around in this forum and can't find a clear answer!!
    Any thoughts??

  • Bevel and emboss

    so, after much research, i finally found out that you cannot create a bevel and emboss look like in photoshop. so i have created a very 'flat' looking logo in ai, but i want to add bevel and emboss layer effects. how does everyone else do this? i need the effects and the flexibility of a vector graphic. also, i have different layers in my ai file, and i need them to remain as layers when i open in photoshop.

    nope, not even close to what i can achieve in ps. i've accepted the fact that there is no way to replicate the ps bevel and emboss in ai. that's fine with me. i just want to know what other graphic designers to do work around it. i can't imagine rasterizing the file at different sizes, then applying the effects in ps. or do you rasterize the file at a huge size then apply the effects in ps, then scale it down if need-be? either way, it sounds very 'clumsy.'

  • Bevel and emboss not smooth

    I am having issues using the bevel and emboss layer styles on my text. I am getting a stair stepping almost banding look on the bevel. It does this with any setting. Very noticable using the chisel  hard setting. It almost looks like lines are in the bevel. What could be causing this?  Thanks for any help

    What could be causing this?
    Normal behavior - because it's pixel-based, it uses thresholds to determine which semi-transparent pixels get "extruded" and which ones not, ultimately reflecting those pixel patterns in the final result. It's a limitation in most such effects and any additional operation that introduces more semi-transparent pixels intensifies the problem (such as 3D layers with filtering). Some tools like RevisionFX' Shade/Shape use additional code to reconstruct the edges and do a better job. Anyway, based on your image, even that may not be good enough. You are simply pushing too far IMO. What you seem to want would really be done much better with proper 3D geometry. If you can't and don't want to spend money on a plug-in, your best bet is to create a pre-comp with teh type as large as possible, apply the bevel, then scale it back in your main comp. When scaling down, at least a part of the streaks will be interpolated and thus the result look smoother...

  • Text  bevel and emboss?  HELPPPPPP!

    Hi there everyone...
    I have a photo of a clock ...
    http://s409.photobucket.com/albums/pp175/Studentiermegs/?action=view&current=DSC_0679.jpg
    and what I want to do is put some text onto the face, so it looks as though it is part of the clock... so like if I took a tool and carved into the back of the face and whatever I had carved appeared raised on the front. Hope that makes sence!
    Have tried bevel and emboss and pattern maker to try and get the surface of the clock, but looks terrible so I must be doing something wrong, if I have the right idea at all!
    Help!
    Thanks

    In your case the perspective will kill you. More or less I think you are not looking for a straightforward bevel and emboss at all, but rather a way to create the illusion of the stamped faces catching light. Even if you flatten bevel&emboss before transforming it, it will look goofy. Therefore I would recommend to create this in multiple layers. I suppose you should only create the shadowed areas using bevel&emboss on a white layer, then transform that and use multiply blendmode. Likewise, for the base you'd only use a slightly tinted version and use a blendmode. After that, I'd use Find Edges on a duplicate, remove all unwanted lines, blur it and place it on top to create the soft curvature you have on embossed plates. Might take some experimentation, but certainly will ook more "real" than a layer style only.

  • "these clips were left offline and not divided into separate clips"

    After a Maxtor brand hard drive crash, I am trying to recapture footage that was lost. I am using the exact same tapes and source deck as I did originally. In the process of recapture, repeatedly, I get "Batch capture encountered timecode breaks in sequence items. To protect your edits, these clips were left offline and not divided into separate clips." The result is, after spending whatever the time for each clip to capture I get nothing.
    How do I turn off whatever unnecessary protection mechanism is in place? How do I recapture my clips?

    I've already tried both "create new clip" which created NO clip. The I tried "Warn After Capture" and it can't find the last second of video on the tape, so results in nothing.
    I'm now into a new subject. I have created an EDL of the finished project and have tried to re-import that EDL into FCP for recapture. But every attempt to bring the EDL back in results in "Error Importing EDL" and I'm still screwed. Yes I have stripped the recapture information down to the most basic, cuts only, no effects, no filters EDL and it still won't work--I've made dozens of attempts. That may become another query on here: How do you make an EDL that will re-import into FCP? Stay tuned.

  • Import video and be broke into separate clips by scene breaks.

    Is there no way anymore to have iMovie create separate clips for imported movies by scene breaks on the camcorder? I know previous versions would recognize when the filming stopped then started again and separate these into separate clips.
    (I'm talking about in the Even Library not Projects)
    I know I can select one frame and delete it to create separate clips then but its one more step and will lots of scene breaks makes it a pain in the @$$

    I am importing from a Sony Digital 8 camcorder through firewire just like I always did. When I imported the footage in imovie o9 instead of detecting when the recording stopped and started again and breaking it into separate event clips it put it as on big clip.
    It imports the clips as .dv files

    hi,

    abd have the permission to use it, but they dont have an vector format of it :S
    so i'm trying it at my self...
    i have the right font, and used the "bevel and emboss" in pgotoshop. its nearly what i need, only other colors, and the horizontal parts had to keep going straight, now the vertical line "breaks" it:

    but the fact is, that i actualy want to make him in illustrator, but i cant find he right tools there. i have tryed:
    http://www.volgensbartjes.nl/musketiersAI.jpg , but a you see, he makes the right part of each sword part of the R well, but he makes the left part of each zword part bigger :S
    does anyone haveing a good idea how i could make this in illustrator, like how he is in photoshop, but than with the good horizontal parts, like the original?
    thanks...

    ps, this is not commercial, its for a amature musical group...
    ps, if you speak dutch, please answer in dutch, thats easyer for me ;)

    no, i post this in illustrator becouse i realy wanna do it in illustrator, i need to be able to move points later, so i can make parts longer as in the original is, and i also want to use the "sword font" later in other thingd, zo if its not a vector than anymore, i can never change anything anymore as its in photoshop....
    i have also tryed to cut one part of the R, and give it the fiter as shown in the 3rd picture, but it keeps making strange things outside the part, while ive choosen for inside....
    so if anyone knows an solution for illustrator? i really wanna know ;)
