Photoshop :: Map Artwork Onto Cylinder In Perspective

Jun 3, 2013

I'm working on some packaging and product manuals for a product that is a cylindrical tube (say like an awareness bracelet). The final product is supposed to have some branding silkscreened onto it, wrapped around the tube. I have a spec sample of the item that I will be using for product photos but it doesn't have the branding that I'm going to print on it. I'm going to have to map the artwork that will be printed on the final product onto the photos that will be taken.
 
I'm trying to figure out a way that I can take the branding and map it onto photos of the product in photoshop in proper perspective (so that it looks realistic)
 
I've already searched the web and didn't find any good solutions. (Most of what I found was tutorials on wrapping labels on a soda can. This could be good if I could quickly and precisely position a 3D object in photoshop directly over my photo and then map my artwork onto that shape, making sure that the 3d geometry is invisible while the artwork that I map on remains visible, but my experimenting did no yield good results. I also tried using Illustrator's 3d tools but I found that when rotating 3D shapes, they don't rotate in perspective [you cant get shapes to appear as if they are in 3 point perspective] and so I would not be able to properly overlay an illustrator 3d shape over an image.)
 
I'm sure this had to be done before and I'm sure there's a simple straightforward way to do this.

Illustrator :: Why Can't Move Artwork With Perspective Selection Tool

May 11, 2013

I created a carpet and decorated it with symbols. When I tried to place it in the perspective grid with the perspective tool, it wouldn't move. I can move it fine with the selection tool and there's a bounding box but nothing happens when I use the perspective selection tool.

Illustrator :: Perspective Grid - Move Artwork When Changing Properties

May 20, 2012

I was expecting that existing artwork on a perspective grid would move/adapt when changing grid properties like vanishing point etc. but it looks like the artwork just stays unchanged.
 
I couldn't find anything on the net - is there a way to change the artwork accordingly with the perspective grid?

Illustrator :: Recolor Artwork From Black / White To Color Inside Recolor Artwork?

Dec 11, 2012

In Recolor artwork is there a way to change the black and white colors to a color? When I try to edit them it doesn't edit them at all. It would be nice if I didn't have to manually tweak the colors to have color before I go into Recolor Artwork.

Photoshop :: Wrapping Around A Cylinder?

Jan 4, 2005

I wanted to make it look like it is on a can or something similar, how would I correctly warp it? I can't get accurate enough results using displace or liquify, is there any way that involves tracing the actual curve of the can image?

Photoshop :: Wrapping Label Around Cylinder

Apr 19, 2012

I came across this thread

[URL]..........

explaining how to wrap a label around a cylinder. However when I try myself, I obtain an enormous 3D cylinder with my label glued on it and once I reduce the size of the cylinder to the desired size, my label is minuscule. Additionally, it takes me ages to rotate/scale the cylinder in the right way.
 
Why is the 3D cylinder provided by Photoshop so enormous ?

Sep 28, 2003

I have a layer that I need to transform so it appears to be wrapping around a cylinder like a pop can.

Actually so it appears to be a logo on a baseball cap. I need to give the layer a slight curved effect with a touch of perspective distortion on the ends.

Photoshop :: Creating CD Artwork ?

Jan 11, 2006

I've been asked by a friend to create a CD cover and inlay for a his band, something I haven't done before (i've only done web-design until now).

I've been reading up online about how to create them and I've been getting nowhere, fast! I read that a CD cover should be 120mm x 120mm, but this appears to be HUGE on my small monitor screen and I have to zoom out in order to see what I'm doing!

Photoshop :: Artwork Size

Jun 22, 2003

I usually design for the screen (72) but lately i feel that if im putting massive amounts of time/effort into a piece.... that I dont want to deny myself the option of getting it printed down the road. Now here is the catch...my camera is only 2MP. So the best i can do with that is an 8X10 @ 150dpi which isnt much (its ok quality.....i have an 11X14 @150 hanging on my wall thats decent).

So now when i go to create a new piece i dont know what size to make it. I cant jam up the ppi to far cause i dont have that kinda quality photograph...but i dont want a small document set to 72 cause if i want it res it up i get an extremely small print.

Like 2 examples...one piece i have i made 612x792 (8x10) but its at 72..so if i wanted to print it at 150 (at best) it's going to be really small (4x5... if that). Now another piece i made is 1000x1294 @72 (a large 8x10). Now with this size my 1600x1200 photographs fit fine and if i res it up to 150 i can still achieve an ok 8x5.

So now what do i do. I cant make an 8x11 @ 300 ( i dont have that kinda quality) but i hate the fact that an image i put so much work into can only print like 3x4.

Photoshop :: Artwork Off Art Board

Jul 31, 2008

I have two documents, one with a larger canvas than the other. If I bring a layer from the larger document to the smaller one I end up with artwork that is off the artboard/canvas and invisible. I can see this artwork if I drag the layer around.

Is there a way to remove this content which is unused/unseen? I get the feeling that it is bloating my file sizes...

Photoshop :: How To Wrap Label Around Cylinder Using 3D Layer

Nov 1, 2013

I've figured out how to wrap a label around a cylinder using a 3D Photoshop layer but what I can't figure out is what ratio and size that label needs to be.
 
For example I have a cylinder and have loaded the texture from the Photoshop document into the Opacity section in the Properties tab but rather than it being in proportion with the cylinder it seems to stretch it. So have to edit the label document and squash the actual label, which I know is not the correct way of doing it.

Photoshop :: Paint From Grayscale Artwork?

Dec 18, 2011

how do paint in the same way.I think she starts by do some texture to her cleaned artwork using only gray.Then I think she apply some filter / adjustment to every area (in another layer) to give the colors to the objects.I've try to do the color change to her arm after changing it to grayscale.Then I used a layer in multiply mode then paint with skin color on it.Final part was hue/saturation editing.

I don't like my version.It seems very flat. Seems to be the same color with daker variations.The original was so colorful and shiny with dynamic colors.how to have this kind of effect?

Photoshop :: Artwork For Banners, What Size?

Apr 3, 2009

I am preparing some 4-colour artwork (Text & Graphics) for printing onto canvas banners, finished size 8ft x 3ft. Never done this this big before. Surely I do not need to size the artwork in PhotoShop at that size, as the file sizes are massive?

The printer requires hi-res PDF's.

Photoshop :: CS3 - How To Locate Layer Your Artwork Is On?

Jul 22, 2008

This has been driving me crazy since the new CS3 version came out. In the old days when I wanted to find the layer my element was on, I'd ctrl-click it (PC) and bang, that layer would be active. One of the most useful shortcuts ever invented...

Which is why Adobe had to go and screw with it. Now all that does is give you the folder, which is useless to me - I often will have 30-40 folders, those having many subfolders and many layers.

The lame replacement I have seen is "oh, click the palette icon of the layer" - which makes NO sense because *I don't know what the layer is* - that's the info I am trying to find out!

Photoshop :: Burning Artwork To A DVD - Low Quality?

Mar 16, 2009

My artwork is in 72dpi - 1920 by 1080 for HDTV... Artwork is clear and sharp on my computer. I understand to save to a BMP or TIFF instead of a JPG... but how can I acheive that same great clarity once I transfer that artwork to a DVD (for commercial purposes..)that I also want to send and share that DVD for others to view. Example: When you see a video game cut scene, or the menu screen... (such as in "Conan" for PS3) the cut scenes STATIC SHOTS are watercolor artwork (as mine) and they are brilliant in sharpness and clarity - though when I burned just a few of mine to a dvd... they were not up to good standards as previously explained.

Is it best to save to Blu Ray Disk or... Don't think it's compression yet as I only tested 3 pieces of art on one dvd. What is the best manner possible to put my artwork onto a DVD and get that same game design quality in appearance... and not slightly fuzzed out? The TV I viewed it on is a plasma 50in 1080p or i think.

Photoshop :: CS6 - How To Stop Program Interface Going Behind Artwork

Sep 26, 2012

In previous versions of Photoshop until CS6, with your work set to 'Float in Window' mode, moving your artwork window meant that it sat behind the program interface at all times, so you could move it to the side of the screen and it would sit underneath your panels, layers, text, colors, tools etc...
 
In CS6, it now sits on top of it. This is extremely annoying as it means having to manually arrange the windows so they don't obscure the working tools. Any reason why this was changed? I'm sure it works for some people but it's disrupting my workflow.

Photoshop :: Correct Way To Setup Artwork For A Billboard?

Dec 11, 2012

I need to set up photoshop artwork (which consists of about 5 layers) for a 6m x 3m billboard. I set up my whole billboard in Illustrator (at 3m x 1,5m - half of actual size) and placed the psd image in. I set up my photoshop artwork at a third of actual size (3m x 1m at 300dpi). However, this made my file VERY slow to work with (result was about 700mb!!!!). Someone suggested that I downscale the image to 500mm wide and choose resample image > Bicubic Sharper (best for reduction). This scaled my psd file to about 32mb, which worked much faster. Then I saved the psd file as a Tiff with LZW compression without layers and placed into my illustrator file. However, when I export for print as PDFX1a- 2001 my file size was only 17mb!!!! Did I do the whole process correctly?! Will the print quality still be fine for such a big billboard? Is there a better / standard way to set up photoshop graphics for a billboard?

Illustrator :: Color Change When Copy CS6 Artwork Into Photoshop

Oct 29, 2013

When I copy artwork from an Illustrator CS6 RGB file and paste it as a smart object into Photoshop CS6 the colors are changing slightly. Here's an example:
 
RGB 234, 76, 52 (original color in Illustrator artwork)
RGB 233, 75, 52 (color of smart object pasted into Photoshop)
 
Why the color is changing? I need the color to be an exact match.
 
I have CS6 Creative Suite and the applications are synchronized using the same color settings (North America General Purpose 2). I've tried using both proccessed and spot colors in Illustrator but have the same issue with both.
