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.
