August 2013 Tips and Tricks: Mapping Text to Wafting Fabric

[Gare]

I think I've said it before, here goes again:

When you're engaging in photo-phoolery ad want to deceive the audience, you play "detective" first. What are the clues and hints you can find in the photo to help you accomplish your deception?

Take a look at the lighting on the crumpled bag, stygg (and everyone). It has light and dark areas. So one approach is to divide up the text as Ernie mentioned, and then assign the pieces over the dark areas Stained glass at high opacity, and the lighter areas get more transparency.

No kidding, this takes work. And creep that I am, I'm not going to post my version at all, because my status on tg lets me dictate while goofing off.
