Video Tutorial: Battleship Poster in Photoshop CS6

The coolest thing about writing tutorials is that I have the chance to try to recreate effects I see in movie posters, billboards, movies and practically anywhere. I’ve been learning so much since I started doing that, especially in terms of being more open to feedback and criticism. I also feel more freedom to try different things, that’s the case of my new tutorial inspired by the Battleship movie.

This is going to be my first video tutorial, I have been afraid to try to do video tutorials because of my english but I decided that the day has come for me to put myself out there.

So in this tutorial you will learn how to create the Battleship movie poster using Photoshop CS6 Beta. The video is not long and I will cover so basic stuff like Blend Modes and new CS6 features for 3D and blurs. Enjoy
