3D paper type effect Ep25/33 [Adobe Photoshop for Beginners]

Now its time to start building the creative elements to feature in the Book cover design.

In this tutorial I am going to discuss and demonstrate how you can create a 3D Type composition in Adobe photoshop.

Once created we will be using this in the main book cover for our book design.

Enjoy


*FYI*
In this video tutorial I will be using Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 for mac. Almost all of the principles demonstrated and covered will apply to future and previous versions. Some differences may apply if you are using a previous or future version.
