Join Deke McClelland for an in-depth discussion in this video 392 Adding a chiseled border, part of Deke's Techniques.
- In this movie, I'm gonna show you how…to take those carved letters from the previous movie,…and we're going to add a carved border.…And it's a really easy effect to pull off,…and it relies on an ingenious, but often overlooked function…of Smart Objects.…And that's that many Smart Objects inside of a document…can reference the exact same data.…And so, in my case,…I can change either one of these Cicero layers,…and both of the layers will update in kind.…Now, I did make one small modification to this image.…
In reviewing the appearance at 100% view size,…I decided that Gaussian Blur value of one pixel…was too high.…And so, I went ahead and took it down to 0.5 pixel,…but of course your results are gonna vary…depending on the resolution of your image.…Anyway, I've already done the work in advance,…so I'll just go ahead and cancel out…and press ctrl + 0 or cmd + 0 on the Mac to zoom out.…Next, what you need to do is double-click…on either one of these Smart Objects thumbnails…in order to gain access to the original editable text.…
