How to create a text effect like this (see example)

Hello everybody,
i would like to create a text, pretty similiar to this shirt: http://www.kuhvet.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/OKC-Conference-Champs-LR-T-shirt.jpg
So, the stext hould appear in 3D (kind of) and also should have a golden and silver outline. Also the shadow should drop in front of the text.
I hope that's possible and not that hard to create? I'm a beginner to Illustrator (CS4).
Thanks a lot for your help
Warm regards from Germany
Florian

I would not waste time using AI 3D tools to accomplish this effect. It is 1 point perspective. Start with your front text, establish a horizon  line and vanishing point, scale and duplicate the text using the vanishing point as your center of scaling, then connect the points to create the "extruded effect" between the to sets of text. You can outline the text to accomplish this.
For the reflected text, as John suggested, duplicate your text and distort it. Read about "Envelope Distortion" meshes. These will keep your distorted text fully editable, if that is a concern.
Have fun learning Illustrator.

    I need to create a similar effect as in this link I provided.
    Basically want
    movement, a light flash or a little spark every once in a
    while. Maybe
    someone can point me to a similar tutorial or something. My
    thought is to
    have a subtle effect in the background of my site to give it
    a little flare.

  • How would you make an effect like this?

    Hi! I'm new to the forums, but hopefully it's ok if I start this new discussion. I'm very new to Photoshop as well (newbie).
    Here is the image: http://sffbookreview.files.wordpress.com/2012/10/life-of-pi-banner.png
    How would you make the image on the right - with the watercolor painting crop effect of the tiger? Also, how would you make the font on the left gradually turn to orange?
    Thanks! Your help is much appreciated.

    Hi there,
    Here's a really quick tutorial on how to add the mask and gradient text over the image of a tiger.
    Masking the Image
    1) Open your image of the tiger. There should be two layers in your layers panel: the image and a white background.
    2) With the tiger layer selected, click on the icon marked below in the layers panel to create a layer mask.
    3) Being sure you have the mask you just created selected, paint with black using the brush tool to mask out the image. In your layers panel, if you look at the mask icon, you will see the areas where you were painting (on the canvas) change to black. Use a variety of brushes to recreate the effect in your example image.
    Creating Text with a Gradient Effect
    1) Use the Type Tool to create your basic text and reposition it on the page with the Move Tool.
    2) In the layers panel, control click on the type layer and select Blending Options.
    3) In the dialog box that opens, check the Gradient Overlay box and click on the "gradient overlay" text to move to the gradient options. Adjust the angle of the gradient, then click on the colored bar to select the colors you want. Click OK on each dialog to close them.
    Final result:
    I hope this helps, and please let me know if you need any more assistance.

  • Lipstick font type or how to create lipstick font type like in this image

    looking to create a font type like this. Any suggestions how?
    Thanks

    Nothing will look as good as doing it by hand, so unless there were a lot of text, I'd do it that way.
    Here's a nice font in that vein, though:

    You could even try... cough... Mistral, but it will probably end up looking something of an 80s pastiche.

  • How to create a text file or XML file  and add content through  code into it...

    Hi Everyone,
    How to create a text file and add content through the code to the text file eform javascript ......orelse can we create a text file in life cycle designer...
    Else say how to create a new XML file through the code and how some content like Example "Hello World".

    You can create a text file as a file attachment (data object) using the doc.createDataObject and doc.setDataObjectContents:
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.450.html
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.528.html
    You can then export the file with the doc.exportDataObject method:
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.463.html
    This won't work with Reader if it hasn't been given the file attachment usage right with LiveCycle Reader Extensions.

    To get the best answers, I think you probably need to break down your post into several different one with a separate question in each, along with the business problem you are trying to solve... but here's a few pointers for you to research...
    Textbox - there's plenty of info in SDN on creating a custom control with a textbox e.g. Re: Text Editor on modulepool Screen and sample code in SAP too.
    Attachments - If this is for an email, then GUI_UPLOAD might help and the BCS class is the newer way to send messages... check out Re: Offline Approval: RBBP_NOTIFICATION_OFFAPP Vs RSWUWFMLEC for example... if this is an attachment for an SAP object such as an FI Document or Purchase Order, then the Generic Object Services (GOS) could be what you want e.g. https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/0e6b0d95-0a01-0010-4696-ca0a48de5fb3

    Hi,
    You can create two blocks for this. One is an unbound block which consist of a text box with a command button. Other block is a bound block from your table(multiple rows block). In hierarchical, unbound block should above above bound block, which makes the focus control goes first to the text box. When the user type the dept code and click on the button it goes to bound block and execute the query.
    you can write code in the command block as below
    set_block_property('<boundblockname>',default_where,'deptno = '||:ti_DEPTNO);
    go_block('<boundblockname>');
    execute_query;Best Regards

  • Wondering how to create a text box with variables...

    Hi everyone,
    I was wondering how to create a text box, that at the beginning of the presentation, the audience fills in regarding what they think constitutes the role they have been chosen for.
    I would like that same box to then appear at the end of the presentation, with the text they typed in at the beginning, so they can reflect on what they think now, and what they thought then. I understand this is done using variables, but i'm not 100% sure.
    I hope I've worded this okay!

    This screenshot shows the properties panel, Style tab for the TEB. I relabeled it to My_TEB, used the X button  to create a user variable v_choice that will replace the generic Text_Entry_Box_1/
    This is the properties panel of a Shape, I went in Edit mode (double clicking)to make the Character section appear, where you find the X button. It opens the dialog box 'Insert Variable' and you can choose the var associated with the TEB. The Maximum Length will define how many characters will be displayed, the value of a variable has maximum 256 characters.

    You can use any font available on your system, so if the font is there, or can be bought or downloaded, just use it.
    As for the effect, if you mean the text flowing from right to left, you can do it in FCP X pretty easily. Either use a title meant for that sort of movement (like Alex4D Ticker+, which is a free download), or just use a static title like Basic, enter a long text and keyframe the position.
    As for the big shake, you may try the "Earthquake" effect that comes standard with FCP X.

  • How to make a rubber effect like when you swipe between apps using 4 fingers on iPad ?

    Hey guys,
    So how to make a rubber effect like when you swipe between apps (first or last app) using 4 fingers on iPad iOS7 ? Any examples ?
    Thanks!
    Ivan

    Please do not double post the same question.
    Just like I said before. Animate X scale and position. Set the anchor point of the left image to the left side. You can then use an expression or just generate keyframes for scale. When you flip to the next screen then animate position. Easy basic animation except for the bounce. Key framing the bounce so that it looks natural takes a lot of experience or an expression.
    Google bounce expression after effects and find this. http://www.motion-graphics-exchange.com/after-effects/Wiggle-rubber-bounce-throw-inertia-e xpressions/4ad0f32a944ad
    There are a bunch of other solutions.
    There is no single click solution to this problem and it is not an effect, it is an animation.

  • How to create shiny/mirror effect with a background.

    HI there we have been trying to create a shiny effect and
    found the following tutorial.
    http://www.fireworkszone.com/redirectionNbClicks.php?root=2&idLogiciel=4&idTutorial=371
    The only problem we have is that we have a textured
    background and the tutorial talks about having a colored background
    with not texture.
    When we create the shiny effect you can see the white or
    black that fades.
    Any suggestions?.

    To create a user defined member, in the Hierarchy editor on the bottom right of the screen there is an add buton, if you click on it, you will get a list. Included in the list are user defined child and user defined sibling. These create user defined members. Don't worry that the binding says unspecified. When you save the hierarchy, it will change it will change to be a text value equal to the name you gave the member. To get the members you want to put under that member, I find it easiest to create a Dimension element that has filtering to get select the I need for example if I create a user defined member called diet drinks. I'll create a Dimension member called diet skus that has a filter to select skus where the alias contains the word diet. I'll put that member under my diet drinks member. Whil it might be a little late for you. The Essbase Studio book I'm working on will be available late this week. It has examples of what you are asking about.

  • Scan line write-on effect like this...

    I am looking to create a scan-line "write on" effect like this.
    Patrick Sheffield originally posted the thread [here|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=634451&#634451].
    I downloaded the projects but they didn't do exactly what the movie did.
    This is the effect I am after:
    [Scan line Movie|http://www.pistolerapost.com/viewing/analysis1.mov]
    Thanks,,

    On the movie, the scanlines come down line by line, whereas in the project file, each line comes on randomly.
    Also, on the movie there's a very nice brief glow going from side to side as each line is laid down.
    When the scan lines go down they reveal an image. I guess you're using an image mask for that?
    I looked for the project file that corresponds to the movie, but I couldn't find it.
    There were two in the zip file: scanlinescreen , scanlinetext
    ^(ps: thanks for the "fun with" series - they've been helpful)^
