How to use Adobe Photoshop to create a carved or cut out wood text effect. This video shows you the specific steps needed to give text that wood look.
______________________________________________
This comprehensive video takes you step-by-step through the complete process from beginning images clear through to the final composite image. This training demo was recorded in Photoshop CS6 but the techniques used will work just as well in Photoshop CS5 through the latest Photoshop CC.
Creating Carved Wood Text in Photoshop is pretty straight forward but it does involve several specific steps and settings.
1. Create a new Photoshop File and start with a Black or Dark Gray background. This helps with the visual effect.
2. Select your type face, a medium face works best for this text effect
3. We will be filling the text so you can leave the text white
4. Using specific settings I show you how to use the Photoshop Fibers Filter to create the wood grain surface
5. Use a Photoshop Clipping Mask to place the wood grain inside of the text
6. The Photoshop Hue/Saturation Adjustment is used to colorize the wood look to give it a brown wood tint
7. Place a black fill layer above the text and paint white onto that layer where you want highlights
8. Using Photoshop Blending Modes blend the highlight layer into the text layer
The Wood texture surface used in this video is created directly inside of Photoshop.
