TUTORIAL BY PSCS5; How to make boxes around a text
1. Create your text. I used Courier New as my font for this tutorial.
2. Select the Rectangle Tool. Make sure that your foreground color is set to white:
3. Now using your text as a guide, make a box that covers the text. Your box should be under the text. Once you have that done, it should look something like this:
4. I personally like to add Satin to the box, so that it could have like a vintage touch to it:
Then:
These are my settings:
5. With the satin added:
6. To rotate your text and box, select the move tool and rotate.
7. To get the more edgy look like box number 3 that says “a text” select the polygon lasso tool:
8. Then start making random lines around the text. Connect the one end to another so that you get moving lines around your text like this:
9. Make a new layer and select the bucket tool. Make sure that this layer is underneath your text and that your foreground color is white. Take the bucket tool and click inside the area of the moving text so that it can be filled in with white:
The result:
10. If you want to add the satin, follow step 4.
And that’s really all there’s to it. You don’t need to make a new text for a new word. Just write your whole text out, ex: “How to make” and then just do the boxes around it. Hope this helped.

Step 1:
Open the picture in photoshop. Paste in the size you desire.

I’m not going over the steps to get the gif cause I already did a tutorial about that here xxx
Let’s say you want to do a gif about a very crowded scene but you only want to focus about one part of the scene, this is going to be hard cause you don’t have a still background so you can’t use…
I got asked a few times how I achieved this effect and since I find it to be relatively easy, I figured I’d do a quick tutorial for those that are interested. This tutorial was done is PS CS4.
