In this movie we're going to take the word Spiders, which looks like it might have…been carved out of wood, and we're going to…transform it to this kind of chain metal type.…And we'll do so by adjusting a few setting of course,…as well as adding a texture to our bevel and emboss effect.…I'll go and switch back to the image at hand and…zoom in on it until we get to the 100% zoom ratio.…The first thing we need to do is to imbue our letters…with a little bit of blue.…And so I'm going to drop down to the FX icon, and choose…colour overlay, which allows you to paint a layer with the solid colour.…
By default it's set to paint your layer red, so it just completely…replaces the contents of the layer which obviously is not something we want.…I'll click on the colour swatch in order…to bring up the colour picker dialogue box.…And the colour I came up with is this one here, a hue…of 215, saturation 20%, and brightness 70%.…Click OK.…That's still not what we want, because we…don't want to just whole hog replace the colours.…
