How can I make a "scaling scale" effect in photoshop? (soda can)

Hey. As part of my production art class, I was making a soda can mockup from a tutorial. I thought of an effect that could make it look better, where I make the soda can label and water bubble layer larger than the can, then use a "scaling scale" that leaves the pixels near the center of the layer at 100%, with the pixels at the edges having the biggest difference in size (thinner). This would make a sort of 3D effect that could make it look like the label and bubbles were on a real can or cylinder.
Is this possible?

If you're using a version of PS that has 3d, that would be easiest way to may both the bubbles and label apper to conform to the can.  You can create a soda can in aPS 3D and then apply the label to the can using the diffuse layer texture map. 
The other way would be to use warp (ctrl/cmd-T then right click to select warp).  You would then need to move the sides of the warped area in towards the can.

  • How do I make iPad images high quality in Photoshop?

    I'm a graphic designer and I tried setting the resolution higher with my 1024 x 768 image but it still looks crappy when viewd on my iPad 2. How do I make the image higher quality when I save it? I use Adobe Photoshop cs4.
    Thanks

    Photos that are synced via iTunes get 'optimised' during the transfer, though I don't know what the optimisation actually does (and it's not possible, as far as I know, to bypass the optimisation when syncing photos). If you want your versions of the photos on the iPad then you could try the camera connection kit, emailing them to yourself (and then saving to Photos), or one of the wifi photos transfer apps - though the photos will only go into the camera roll/saved photos album (at least until iOS 5 which should allow us to move photos between albums)

  • How do I make a scaled PDF?

    I created a documet in InDesign CS4 and can't figure out how to use the 'Adobe PDF Presets' function in the FILE dropdown menu to make a PDF at a reduced size. I recall having no problem doing this with the older version of InDesign. Any advice greatly appreciated.

    Printing to PDF will flatten transparency, which might otherwise be preserved by exporting if you use Acrobat 5 or higher compatibility. A flattened PDF might show thin white lines, called "stitching" around areas of transparency when printed on a color copier.
    Have you used transparency or blending modes or effects in the design?
    You'll find a link to a nifty script (one for CS3, one for CS4, so be careful) that will import a multipage file and allow you to tweak postioning and scaling at http://indesignsecrets.com/zanelli-releases-multipageimporter-for-importing-both-pdf-and-i ndd-files.php

  • How to easily make this compass burst effect

    I've been looking for an easy way to make what I am calling a compass burst effect. I've been interested in making compass lines in the past, and have given up becuase it was too time cosuming. I'm hoping there is an easy way to do this that I am overlooking.
    Thank you!

    Brandon,
    A Polar Grid way could be to:
    1) Use the Polar Grid (bundled with the Line Segment Tool, hover and hold until the flyout appears) with the desired larger outer diameter and number of ticks as Radial Dividers, 0 Concentric Dividers, then Ungroup and delete the circle part;
    2) Use the Polar Grid with the desired smaller outer diameter and number of ticks as Radial Dividers, 0 Concentric Dividers, then Ungroup and move the circle part on top; make sure both 1) and 2) are aligned (you may use the Align palette or place the centres on top of each other;
    3) Rotate the tick set from 2) by 180/number of either kind of ticks;
    4) Change the circle part taken from 2) to have a white fill and no stroke, then reduce its diameter to the desired diameter of the inner ends of the ticks;
    5) Copy the circle taken from 4) and reduce the diameter to that of the inside circle and change to the desried stroke and no fill.
    You may set the colours of ticks and stroked circle as desired.
    If you wish/need to have transparency inside the tick marks, you may:
    6) Select the tick marks and the white fill circle and in the Transparency palette flyout tick Make Opacity Mask, with Clip unticked and Invert Mask ticked.

    Hi,
    I am new to iMovie and need some help. I would like to try and create an effect similar to the one in this movie,
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPuEU16P3zg
    it's the transition just after the title screen comes up (about 1m 20s into the video) where the frames flicker and move off center, kind of looks like an old tape reel running out.
    Any help will be gratefully received,
    Cheers,

    or
    3. make a new white layer below the others, group the "others" [if there are more than one], and reduce the opacity of the group

  • How do I make a printing pre set in Photoshop CS4?

    I use Photoshop CS4 and print on an Epson R360.  I often print high resolution images, usually jpeg, onto quality Epson paper with certain settings to get the best result.  However I am aware that I can set a "pre set" to achieve this without having to make the print spec choices each time but don't know how to do it.  I have checked the Adobe website but cannot find any relevant info that I can understand.  Can anyone give me a simple guide how to do this please?

    In the PRINT dialog box, [see Pic-1], make all the changes that you want,
    then [see Pic-2]
    SAVES US, name your preset.  When you print again, then you just select that PRESET, and all your print specs for the PRESET should all be there.  I hope this helps.

  • How do you make a circle clipping path in PhotoShop CS4?

    All online help that I have found so far, shows me how to hand draw a complex shape. I just need a circle. I can do this in a few minutes in CorelDRAW and Illustrator.
    You must be able to do it in PhotoShop. The end result is - I want it to work like a ship porthole. All you can see is what is behind the port window.
    Thanks!!!!

    Does this help at all??? I skipped CS4
    Can also just add the path in as a vector layer mask
    Save the work path with a name once you have a saved path you can use the path palette's fly-out menu item "Clipping Path".

  • How to reproduce the new brightness & contrast effect from photoshop?

    hello
    i've made a composition in photoshop and imported it to AE. among other layers, it had a "brightness and contrast" adjustment layer.
    since photoshop cs4 (i think), the brightness and contrast has changed, and instead of uniformly adjusting the brightness of each pixel, it looks at the whole image and tries to move the brightness of pixels in a more considerate and smart way (i think). anyway its very different.
    thing is, that in AE, the "brightness and contrast" effect stayed the same, so when importing the composition with all the adjustment layers, the image looked completely (disasterously) different.
    in photoshop i've noticed the checkbox "use legacy". when checked, it made the adjustment layer do the same thing it did in AE (which came out horrible). i tried to work on it for an hour to produce an effect even remotely similar to the one i had without the legacy, and gave up.
    so,
    is there any way - hidden options, combinations of several adjustment layers, third party plugins - anything, in AE, that could reproduce the new photoshop way of controlling brightness and contrast?
    thanks,
    michael
    photoshop and AE both cs5, 64bit, windows

    Paul,
    can you show with a screenshot what you are trying to do?  Also... to assist with terminology...
    what you are calling "reproduce" is, in Numbers and other spreadsheet jargon, called referencing a cell.
    I think what you are saying is you ALWAYS (even if you add a new row) want to refer to the same cells location.
    To do this you should the function INDIRECT() like this:
    row 1 us a header in this example and:
    C1=INDIRECT("A2")
    this notation means in cell C1 type or paste the formula "=INDIRECT("A2")" without the double quotes then hit enter
    now added a new row:

    Is there a way?

    Hello!
    What version of Photoshop?
    Is it on a timeline or a frames by frames animation?
    For timeline, go to the flyout menu of the animation panel, and select "documents options"
    If you are in frames by frames, change the delay between frames to what you need. (maths are useful, or a calculator )
    If you render a video, you can set the rate on export>render video.

    We need less people like Tai Lao on these forums and more thoughtful, well thought out and thorough answers like the one 24/7 Tech Support gave.
    I fail to understand what you're motivation and goal is Tai Lao?
    This is precisely a board for people that are trying to learn whether they're beginners or not, or have high IQs or low IQs?
    I've been using Photoshop since 1996 and I recently got CS5 and I was searching for this exact topic, because I just wanted something comprehensive on the subject, so I don't understand why you or anyone else feels the need to get in the way of that?
    I mean, seriously, is this all for your ego? You like feeling superior to people, people you don't even know for that matter? Take your issues somewhere else. The immaturity is so obnoxious, especially when people that use these boards have work to do.
    We out here have work to do, and we need thorough answers. Sometimes, some of us, while we're in the middle or towards the end of the work day aren't even at our best or freshest and we need clear and comprehensive answers during those moments when we're not necessarily operating at our best.
    Whatever the case is, the truth is when you post answers, you should assume that the people are beginners or have "low IQs" or whatever garbage Tai Lao wrote.
    24/7 Tech Support, I hope you continue to go about with your method of presenting detailed thorough answers to the people's queries here on the Adobe boards, I'm sure I'll come across one of your USEFUL posts sometime soon in the near future, and hopefully less across the USELESS posts of those like Tai Lao.
