Adobe Photoshop CS4: 3D Shape Demo

Watch the HD version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDp5RTir4j0&fmt=18

In this video I will be showing you some basic shapes built into the program. I have made this video because I only showed the "donut" shape in the last one.

The movement of 3D objects is very smooth, the recording studio slowed down the rendering in this video. However, the movement should be more fluid than the last one.

O Shapes demonstrated
- Donut
I created a dough-like texture and Photoshop transformed it in 3D space. Downloadable version has sugar.

- Soda Can
One of my favourites, I created a Coca-Cola can that can be rotated in 3D space. Downloadable version has more accurate properties eg. glossiness

- 3D Postcard
Quite a powerful one that is great for perspective and advertisements. I rotated a 2D object in 3D space, sort of like a photograph. Downloadable version is the same.

- Sphere
A very good shape that I have used to create an orb like effect. There are many tutorials to create a good orb, I have applied their techniques with a twist. Downloadable version has better light locations.

I have used various pictures to demonstrate why these objects would be great for certain tasks.

If you like the look of these 3D shapes then you can download the improved high detail versions: http://r0qwyg.bay.livefilestore.com/y1pc3yBU3zqOjS-GgjK8GGnL3gbEjdNc_41JYfbIE...

All you need is Photoshop CS3 Extended or greater.

Is there a way that you can turn the 3d shape back to a 2d one? (even after you saved it as a 3d shape)

[chrisybwell]

@FutileFreak If you turn a layer into a 3D shape, you will see under that layer a few sub-headings. Those are the 3D textures that go into making the 3D object. Just double click and you will have it back. The only way you can get it back to a 2D shape after rendering out the 3D shape is to Undo.
