Let your friends know about this tutorial and PhotoshopCAFE. Let me know if you like it in the comments. Thanks for checking out this week’s tutorial. If you are doing this for a job, its about getting the job done right, as quickly as possible. One thing I have learned doing this for a living for 20 years or so, is that it’s result that matters, and getting there as fast as possible. Selecting the rim was a lot easier than selecting the tire too and this yields a more realistic result because there is no sloppy selection on the tire. Does it look like I needed to spin the tire? No, I didn’t, it looks fine as is.

Pro Tip: Why did I select the rim and not the whole tire? (I know someone will ask). You can use the Filter>Blur Gallery>Spin to spin the wheel and put it in motion. Pro Tip: Holding down Cmd/Ctrl enables you to move the points independently, getting you the control you need for an oh, so perfect selection. Isn’t that handy? And it works on any selection. Now you can dra any of the 9 points to rotate and scale the selection. You can’t do that with the elliptical marquee tool. Th challenge is that its an oval at an angle. “What? The wheel is complex? Its just an oval.” I hear you say. YOu have now selected a more complex shape. You will see a tiny “0′ which indicates the start point Click to complete your selection Move the tool over the first corner where you started the selection. It’s ok, you can let go of the shift key, Photoshop already knows you are adding to the selection. If the line is only constraining to 45 degree angles, its because you are shill holding down Shift. Click in the top left corner of the skewed rectangular shape.Īs you move the cursor, notice the line follows your mouse, like gum stuck to a shoe.Ĭlick the top right corner to anchor the 2nd point Hold down Shift, to add to the selection. Ok, the rectangular tool isn’t going to work this time, what do we do? Its a finger-dance, but you’ll get used to it. Don’t forget to also use the spacebar to move the selection. Hold down Alt/Option and make the inner ring selection. Make the outer ring selection with the elliptical marquee tool, as before. You can see the shape was easily selected, using only 2 tools. Press Cmd/Ctrl+J to copy the selection to a new layer. Make the selection over the “theater” words. To add to the selection, hold down the Shift Key Hold Down Alt/Option to remove from the selection (you will see a minus sign by the selection)Ĭhoose the rectangular selection tool. Shift Constrains/unconstrains the shape depending on the version of Photoshop you are using.Hold Alt/Option to drag from the Center.Holding down Spacebar allows you you move the entire selection.Lets get started,ĭrag to make a selection around the outer ring. We will now have a corrected version of the photo above the original. Step 1.ĭuplicate the photo layer by choosing it in the Layers panel and pressing Cmd/Ctrl+JĬlick on the perspective button at the top left of the screen. Don’t worry, we will keep a distorted version, so you can learn how to select that too. These tools give nice clean edges, and they are quick when you understand how to use them.īefore we start, why don’t we get rid of the distortion on this photo. Instead of using the magic wand etc, lets use the marquee tools already in Photoshop.
