hi this is Marty from Blue Lightning TV

0:00:10.420,0:00:15.459
I'm going to show you how to create

0:00:12.940,0:00:18.520
overlapping vertical photo strips from a

0:00:15.459,0:00:21.340
single photo and then color eyes and

0:00:18.520,0:00:25.599
effect each strip individually creating

0:00:21.340,0:00:28.359
a fun interesting look open a photo

0:00:25.599,0:00:32.650
you'd like to use I downloaded this

0:00:28.359,0:00:35.530
portrait from shutterstock.com make a

0:00:32.650,0:00:40.089
copy of your photo by pressing ctrl J on

0:00:35.530,0:00:44.049
Windows or command J on a Mac click the

0:00:40.089,0:00:50.080
adjustment layer icon and choose solid

0:00:44.049,0:00:51.729
color pick white and click OK we want to

0:00:50.080,0:00:54.190
bring the color fill adjustment layer

0:00:51.729,0:00:56.440
below layer 1 there are two ways of

0:00:54.190,0:00:58.720
doing this one way is to drag it to the

0:00:56.440,0:01:01.720
line between layer 1 and the background

0:00:58.720,0:01:03.989
and then release I'll press ctrl or

0:01:01.720,0:01:06.820
command Z to undo the last step the

0:01:03.989,0:01:10.119
second way to place the color fill below

0:01:06.820,0:01:13.929
layer 1 is to use the shortcut ctrl or

0:01:10.119,0:01:16.000
command + the left bracket key click the

0:01:13.929,0:01:20.229
thumbnail of layer 1 to make it active

0:01:16.000,0:01:23.049
and open you a rectangle tool choose

0:01:20.229,0:01:26.909
shape if you're working on a version

0:01:23.049,0:01:29.829
earlier than cs6 the shape icon is here

0:01:26.909,0:01:31.570
the fill color is irrelevant since we're

0:01:29.829,0:01:34.570
ultimately going to fill the shape with

0:01:31.570,0:01:38.619
the photo make sure the stroke is empty

0:01:34.570,0:01:40.810
its symbol is the red diagonal line drag

0:01:38.619,0:01:45.280
a vertical rectangular shape across your

0:01:40.810,0:01:50.530
image position the rectangle below layer

0:01:45.280,0:01:53.200
1 to move or rotate it open your

0:01:50.530,0:01:56.710
transform tool by pressing ctrl or

0:01:53.200,0:01:59.319
command t when you see a curved

0:01:56.710,0:02:02.020
double-arrow rotate it to an angle you

0:01:59.319,0:02:04.119
like you can always change it later I'll

0:02:02.020,0:02:06.880
drag the shape over the left side of the

0:02:04.119,0:02:09.970
portrait drag any middle point on the

0:02:06.880,0:02:12.250
edges to extend or shorten the shape to

0:02:09.970,0:02:16.900
accept the transform press Enter or

0:02:12.250,0:02:19.420
return make a top layer active make it

0:02:16.900,0:02:20.780
into a clipping mask by pressing ctrl

0:02:19.420,0:02:24.590
Alt key on when

0:02:20.780,0:02:26.569
those or command option G on a Mac this

0:02:24.590,0:02:28.940
clips the photo to the shape directly

0:02:26.569,0:02:31.690
below it hiding everything on the photo

0:02:28.940,0:02:34.280
except for the area inside the shape

0:02:31.690,0:02:40.459

0:02:46.610,0:02:52.280
and make the angle a hundred thirty-two

0:02:49.280,0:02:55.820
degrees for this photo I'll make the

0:02:52.280,0:02:58.580
distance 20 pixels and the size 5 pixels

0:02:55.820,0:03:00.440

0:02:58.580,0:03:02.209
different amounts for the distance and

color lookup filters to give each panel

0:05:26.880,0:05:33.840
its own unique look first make sure the
