Contemporary design - How to make Digital grids photo design Photoshop tutorial

Step – 1

Begin by opening the Preferences dialog: go to The Guides, Grid & Slices section. Set up grid lines with the spacing you need for the size of the design. Here, we’re using a 12 pixel grid.

Step – 2

Make sure the grid is visible (use View > Show > Grid) and create a new text box; type in a random String of ones and zeros. Adjust the size and leading until the numbers fit exactly within the grid spaces in this design.

Step – 3

Turn that text box into pixels using Layer > Rasterizing > Type, then duplicate the block of text so it fills the entire canvas area. Merge all the raster type Layers together to create a single layer on design.

Step – 4

Inverse the type layer to make white on black Text, then open the Hue/Saturation dialog. Check The Colorize button, and lower the Brightness value; drag The Hue slider to get the color you want.

Step – 5

Now for the photograph. It helps to choose an Image with strong light and shade; increase the Contrast if you need to. Erase any fiddly elements in the Background so that the foreground image stands out.

Step – 6

To treat the image to match the grid, choose Filter > Pixel ate > Mosaic. This turns the image into an array of large, square pixels. A cell size of 12 will make the squares match the grid exactly.

Step – 7

For a more graphic effect, use Image > Adjustments > Pasteurize. This process reduces

The number of gray shades in the image: a value of 4 produces good results.

Step – 8

Now to make the numbers show through. From The pop-up menu in the Layers palette, change the mode of the layer from Normal to multiply: now we can see through the image to the numbers below.

Step – 9

Zooming in on the image shows us how the Mosaic effect and the grid coincide perfectly. Each number is an entire unit – there is no cutoff Portions of numbers in the whole image.

Step – 10

If you want some of the numbers to be visible in the background, open the Levels adjustment (Ctrl + L) and drag the bottom left slider to the Right to brighten the darker areas.

Then export your design and your graphic ready to use.

Differences between Adobe Illustrator and CorelDRAW

Adobe Illustrator and CorelDRAW have many similarities, which makes it easy to move from one graphics application to the other. After learning Adobe Illustrator it will not be difficult to learn CorelDRAW. Tools that are common to CorelDRAW and Illustrator will not be covered in detail, as you have already learnt them in Adobe Illustrator. Even though there is a similarity in the basic drawing and design capabilities, Adobe Illustrator and CorelDRAW have some basic differences. Many terms have similar meanings but, are referred to by different names.

 

Adobe Illustrator Term	CorelDraw Term
Anchor points	Nodes
Artwork	Drawing
Compound object	Combine
Gradient fill	Fountain fill
Mask	Power Clip
Outline view	Wireframe view
Path	Curve
Placing images	Inserting images
Rasterizing	Converting to a bitmap
Stroke	Outline
Swatches palette	Color palettes
Unite	Weld

Comparing Tools 

Let’s compare Adobe Illustrator tools and the corresponding CorelDRAW tools. Many of the tools give the

same result but operate differently. This will be useful when you are required to perform a task in CorelDRAW that you have earlier learnt in Illustrator.

Start with CorelDraw Interface

Let’s examine the workplace and see how the entire setup operates. On startup, the application window opens. It contains a drawing window. The drawing page where you can create the drawing is at the center of the drawing window.

The different parts of the Application window are as follows:

1 - Title bar - Displays the title of the currently opened drawing window.

2 - Menu bar - Contains the pull-down menu options.

3 - Toolbar - Contains menu shortcuts and other commands. The Standard toolbar contains various options like, New, Open, Save, And Print And So On. In addition to these, CorelDraw has toolbars for specific kind of tasks. For example, the Text toolbar contains commands relevant to using the Text tool. If a toolbar is used frequently, you can display it in the workspace at all times.

4 - Property bar - Contains commands or options related to the active tool or object. For example, when the Zoom tool is active, the Property bar displays options such as Zoom Level, Zoom In, and Zoom Out to change the view of a drawing.

5 - Rulers - are horizontal and vertical borders used to determine the size and position of objects in a drawing.

6 - Toolbox - Contains tools for creating, filling, and modifying objects in the drawing. The Pick tool is selected by default. There are different types of tools. On holding the mouse pointer over the tools, their names and shortcut keys are depicted.

7 - Drawing window - is the area outside the drawing page bordered by scroll bars and application controls. More than one drawing window can be opened at a time, but commands can be applied only to the active drawing window.

8 - Drawing page - is the rectangular area inside the drawing window. It is the printable part of your work Area.

9 - Color palette - Contains color swatches.

10 - Ducker - is a window containing available commands and settings relevant to a specific tool or task.

11 - Status bar - Contains information about object properties such as type, size, color, fill, and resolution. The Status bar also shows the current mouse position.

12 - Document navigator - Contains controls for moving between pages and adding pages.

13 - Navigator - is a button at the lower-right corner that opens a smaller display to help you move around a Drawing

these are the basic interface of CorelDraw. You can change it as your like..

How to create a flat artwork on paper using adobe Photoshop

Paper in perspective

Throughout this post we'll be looking at how to create a flat artwork on paper using adobe Photoshop. But paper is a three-dimensional Surface: about the only Time we see it head on is when we're drawing on it, and even then we'll most likely see it from a Slight angle. Here, we'll look at this graphics using warping techniques to distort paper objects So that they can be viewed from a different Angle. The Image Warp button appears In Photoshop CS and later; you won't find it in earlier versions of the Photoshop. We're using the Flag Warp method to distort the check in this graphics

STEP- 1

 Begin by pressing Ctrl + T to enter Free Transform mode of graphics. On the Options bar you’ll see the Image Warp icon; press it, then choose Flag from the pop-up Warp menu (the default setting is Custom). You'll see this massive distortion, which is the preset Flag amount.

STEP- 2

 There’s only one control for this distortion and it’s the tiny handle about a quarter of the way in from the left-hand edge. Grab this, and drag it up to produce a much more subtle distortion, in the opposite direction of graphics.

STEP- 3

 To add some perspective in graphics, don't press ENTER yet. Instead, switch back to standard Free Transform by pressing Ctrl + T once again. Grab one of the corner handles, and hold Ctrl + Alt + Shift as you drag graphics towards the center to produce a symmetrical distortion.

STEP- 4

With the basic distortion in place, we now want to view the check more from the side of graphics. Release the keys, and hold just Ctrl as you drag each corner handle in turn, until you create a perspective view at the right angle for your graphics.

STEP- 5

 This is a convincing shadow method for curved paper, and it depends on the shadow being straight. With the Polygonal Lasso, mark the four corners of where the check would lie if we hadn't curved its surface. Feather using Ctrl + Alt + D (about an 8-pixel feather) and fill with black on a new layer.

STEP- 6

 Lower the shadow opacity to around 50%. Finally, we need a little thickness for the paper graphics. Select all then hold Alt as you nudge the check up two pixels using the UP Arrow key. Inverse the selection, pick a pale color from the check and press Alt + Shift + Backspace to fill the check edge with that color.
