Need help creating a jukebox album effect

Postby RayniaSky on Mon Jul 02, 2007 9:43 pm

Hello,

I'm trying to create a certain effect with images in which they look like albums in a jukebox. Here are some images that illustrate what I mean:

I was wondering if anyone knew the best way to create that tilted effect with the stacked images on the sides? And is there a way to make each image tilt identically without having to do each one by hand? I am using Photoshop CS2. Any advice or tutorials would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

Draw a selection around the image you wish to arrange, go to free-transform and type the values into the box up the top.

You will probably wish to use values like:

Angle: 30 degrees
Horizontall Skew: 30 degrees (keep it the same as the angle to ensure the edges are still straight)

You may then wish to play around with the perspective to ensure things look right - but this is probably best done after they are all laid out where you want them to be so you can edit them in a group.

+ looks like they are using reflections in there as well, so you will have to duplicate the images, flip them virtically, then adjust perspective.

Thanks! The free transform tool has been a big help to me.
