Join Deke McClelland for an in-depth discussion in this video 431 Combining multiple Color and Gradient Overlay effects, part of Deke's Techniques.
- In this movie I'm gonna take this text…set against this beige background right here…and I'm gonna infuse both text and background with color…using a combination of a couple of Color Overlay effects…where the background is concerned…and a couple of Gradient Overlay effects on the type.…And note that this is only possible…in the wonderful brave new world of Photoshop CC 2015.…So if you have CC, but you don't have 2015…then go ahead and update your software.…In any event I'm gonna start inside this file…and I'm gonna turn off the text layer for the moment…and then I'll click on this grunge background,…which comes to us, incidentally,…from the Fotolia image library.…
About which you can learn more…and get deals at fotolia.com/deke.…Now to add a Color Overlay effect…I'll drop down to the FX icon…at the bottom of the Layers panels,…and I'll choose Color Overlay.…And of course I don't want this red,…I wanna replace it with a shade of blue,…so I'll go ahead and click on the color swatch there…and I'll dial in a hue value of 210 degrees,…
