Design a Professional Laptop Advert

Final Image:

Here is the final image that we will be creating:

Step 1:

Open up a new document 1000px wide and 600px high. Then paste an image of a laptop into your document. Create a new layer set called ‘laptop’ and put the layer containing your laptop image into this layer set.

Step 2:

Now I want to create a vanishing point for the screen of the laptop. Many Photoshop users, including myself, don’t yet have Photoshop CS2 or CS3, so this tutorial won’t utilize the useful vanishing point filter available in these versions. Instead, we’re going to manually create a fake vanishing point.

Select the screen part of your laptop using the lasso tool. Then copy your selection, create a new photoshop document, and paste in the selection. Go to image>image size and double whatever your image size is. In this case the original screen was 204px wide, so I simply doubled this to 408px.

Then paste this new larger screen back into your original document. Positioning it roughly where you think it looks good in terms of perspective.

Step 3:

Now select your line tool and a nice bright color for it and draw lines each corner of your large screen through to the matching corner of the original screen and past to a vanishing point. Do this with each corner of the laptop screen, until you have something like the image below:

Step 4:

Now duplicate your larger laptop screen and select edit>free transform. Then in the menu near the top of your screen (see diagram below) change the W (width) and H (height) percentages from 100% to 90%.

Move this resized image so that it matches up with the perspective lines that you created earlier. Be sure to place this resized screen layer behind the largest screen layer but above your original laptop photo layer.

Repeat this process of duplicating/resizing/aligning using the resizing percentages of 80%, 70%, and 60% from your large screen layer. Remember that your original laptop photo is 50% of this large screen layer.

This is how your image should look after you have created this new screens and lined them up correctly:

Step 5:

Now create a new layer set called ‘photo 1′. Paste in the image that you want to manipulate. View a grid over your image and then use the free transform tool to resize your photo to fit nicely into the grid squares. Make sure that the photo fits into an even number of grid squares for it’s height and width. In this example the photo is resized to be 8 grid squares wide and 6 high.

Step 6:

Now duplicate your photo layer, as you want to retain a copy. Be sure to hide the duplicate layer and go back to your original. Select your single column marquee tool from your selection palette (it’s under the Rectangle and Elliptical marquee tools). Using your grid click the grid line that marks the center point of your image and delete a central 1px column. Then switch to the single row marquee tool and do the same to delete a 1px line across the center of your image. You want these lines to be a little larger than 1px though, so grab your magic wand tool and click somewhere outside of your photo image. This will select all of the area surrounding the photo, but also the 1px lines cutting through it. Then go to select>modify>expand and expand the selection by 3px. Then hit delete to achieve an effect like the image below:

Step 7:

Now hide all of your duplicate laptop screens except the smallest one (the one that is 60% of the size of your largest). With your photo layer selected (the one you’ve just cut up using the grid) go to edit>transform>distort and distort the photo so that it fits exactly over this smallest laptop screen image. To fit it well you make need to reduce the layer’s opacity to allow the screen underneath to show though. The image below shows the transformed photo layer at 57% opacity, allowing some of the screen underneath to show through. Be sure to move this photo layer below the next largest laptop screen layer, so that it is mostly covered by it.

Step 8:

Now go back to your original photo layer. Duplicate it again, and using the same technique as before with the single row/column marquee tools cut it into 2X2 squares using the grid. As the image is 8 squares wide and 6 high, this will result in 12 squares each 4 grid squares in size. Again, use your magic wand tool to select the area around the photo and the lines cutting through it, then expand your selection by 3px and hit delete. Then use the distort transform tool to fit your new image to the 2nd smallest laptop screen. Remember again to move this photo layer behind the next largest laptop screen layer. The image below shows the result of this, with the photo layer again at 57% to allow me to nicely fit it to the screen image beneath.


Step 9:

Now repeat these steps, but make your squares half the size each time. So using the grid that will then be 1X1, 1/2X1/2, 1/4X1/4. To cut the photo into 1/2 and 1/4 grid square pieces I would recommend just using your judgement, but if you want to be really picky you can use rulers. Another tip is to duplicate the photo after cutting it into the squares, as this will save you having to repeat the slicing process right from the start each time.

Step 10:

Here is the same image but with all duplicate laptop screen image layers hidden and all photo layer’s with 100% opacity.

Step 11:

Now is the time-consuming part. Hide all of your photo layers except for your smallest photo layer. Use your magic wand tool set at 255 tolerance to select entire squares and delete them to leave a checkerboard effect. To do this simply go down each column deleting squares, being sure to leave a square remaining between each two that you delete. Then move onto the next column and repeat, but make sure that no squares you delete are next to an already deleted square, deleted squares should be diagonal to each other. The image below shows the various stages of doing this with each photo layer:

Step 12:

You should still have your original photo layer, as it was duplicated for safe keeping near the start of the tutorial. Duplicate the layer again, and move it so that it is the first layer above your laptop image layer. Then go to edit>transform>distort and fit the photo nicely over the laptop screen. Then hide all of your vanishing point guidelines and make sure that all of your checkerboard photo layers are visible. Seeing as all these layers are within the same layer set select the layer set and drag it to make the graphic more central in your document.

Step 13:

Right click on one of your photo squares layers and click blending options. Apply the drop shadow settings shown below. Then once this has been applied right click on the drop shadow shown in your layers palette, select ‘copy layer style’ and paste the layer style to all of your other photo squares layers. The outcome is shown below:

Step 14:

Now create a new layer set below your laptop/photos layer set called ‘background’. Hide your laptop/photos layer set. Create a new layer and fill it with a white to light gray radial blur.

Step 15:

Paste a metal texture onto a new layer above your radial gradient layer and reduce it’s opacity to 20% for a subtle textured effect.

Step 16:

Now create some bendy lines across your background using the pen tool. Be sure to have a white 1px brush selected and then once you have created your bendy pen line right click on it and select ‘stroke path’. Then simply duplicate your line layer until you have multiple white lines across your background. I merged all of my line layers together and reduced the merged layer opacity to 30% for a more subtle effect.

And we’re done!

To finish things off I added some cool text. Click the image below if you want the full sized version.

  1. And then reused in the photo. The photo surprised me in so many ways. Now some of you probably know this but I’ll give you this resized image about a grid.

  2. Tom says:

    Sorry Donavan I’m not sure I understand you?

  3. twopo says:

  8. Glen Allsopp says:

    This looks awesome, I’m going to be giving it a try tomorrow

    Look forward to future tuts

  9. Glen Allsopp says:

    Any chance you can explain part 6 in more detail, I don’t quite get it?

  10. Tom says:

    Thanks Glen, I’m glad that you enjoyed it :) . For part 6 what you’re doing is basically cutting a 1px line down the middle of your image, and then a 1px line across the middle of your image. To do this just use the grid as a guide and use the single row/column marquee tool to make your selections for the 1px lines. Then because I wanted a larger gap between the 4 resulting sections of my image I just clicked somewhere on the background and expanded me selection by 3px. Because the 1px lines cutting through my image were selected these were also expanded by 3px, so when I hit delete it cut away a few more pixels of my photo. Let me know if this helps :)

  11. Ali says:

    Looks very professional :D

  27. sumit says:

    didn’t understand

  28. Tom says:

    hi Sumit. Sorry to hear that you didn’t understand the tutorial. I’d be happy to explain anything further, and I’m always keen to know how to improve my tutorials/writing.

  29. rys says:

    [IMG]http://i337.photobucket.com/albums/n383/rysmasness/RCD.jpg[/IMG]

    Thanks!

  30. rys says:

    <img src=”http://i337.photobucket.com/albums/n383/rysmasness/RCD.jpg”

  31. rys says:

    third time’s the charm, right?

  32. Dylan says:

    Hey there. I don’t understand the grid part. Where do I get the grid from?

    Please reply ASAP, really want to get this done :P

    Thanks.

    Dyl.

  33. Dylan says:

    Ok I figured out the grid problem.

    When I set the Magic Wand tolerance to 255 and select a square, sometimes it selects a few…

    What can I do?

  34. Tom says:

    Rys: Great work man! I always love to see how people use my tutorials. :)

    Dylan: Sorry for the delayed response, my internets been completely down. I got the grid initially from view>show grid and then used these guidlines to cut my grid out on the photo. For the magic wand technique I would lower your tolerance, this will select less data. I would try using around 50. Let me know if this works out for you.

  35. Tom says:

    No problem :) I’m glad that you enjoyed it.

  36. sumit says:

    its bit odd to ask, but i really would love to get this effect, so if you have some time could you please please make a action script out of this tutorial. it would really really help me…

    I tried but did not succeed.

  37. Tom says:

    Thanks Leandro :)

    Sumit: Sorry but I’m not actually familiar with Action Script. Good luck with your project though.

  38. sumit says:

    thanks though..

  39. 2G says:

    Thank you!

  43. Zero says:

    thanks again ,great job :)

  44. n_faiths says:

    Nice tut, just finished version. Will be using it as a mailshot promotion. I think this is a technique you won’t forget in a hurry. Thank you

    @ Zero
    Your Grid option is in your Preferences

  45. Tom says:

  49. andinobita says:

    Great result ! It seems creativity play about 80% of this project, while 10% is patience+skill and 10% is software due to not many fancy filters and tools used ..

    awesome !

    nice but too tough :)

  63. Tom says:

    Thanks lmran, I’d be happy to help if you have any specific problems.

  64. Kaung Myat says:

    Great Practice! Sorry, my english writing is too bad! But I very like this lesson. Thank you! I respect your technique!

  65. Nancy says:

    I haven’t seen this problem from anyone else, however, I AM using CS3 and I’m a new user so step by step is important to me.
    I managed to recreate the layers using vantage point by your method but the “lines” don’t go away. When you get to the part about pasting the photo in, it re-selects the vantage point lines to transform instead of the photo.
    I saw Cs3 has the vantage filter but don’t know how to use it for this tutorial.
    Is it possible for you to download a trial version of CS3 or 4 to better explain this step?

  66. Nancy says:

    ok, figured that part out, but like Tony asked, step 11 doesn’t work. Using the magic wand and clicking on the squares, selects ALL the layer. How do you select just 1?

  67. Radix says:

    Cool tutorial…. Nice concept and great work

    Hi – great tutorial

    I’m using CS4 on vista and found the magic wand selection a night mare! But I found that using the rectangle selection tool to remove the squares whilst the image bigger! Anyway, here is my attempt – not as perfect as yours, just an interpretation!

      Really nice Linda! I love how you’ve adapted it to your own personal style, but kept all the energy of the exploding laptop screen.

Go to image>image size and double whatever your image size is. In this case the original screen was 204px wide, so I simply doubled this to 408px.” i had tried it but nothing happening. can you make a video for us to make little easier?

    Hi, Tom ,you really made great work here and all over tuts , but I can see no piont to use vanishing point however it’s fake or true , it give me same results (as I see) with selection and transformation

  96. This looks awesome, I’m going to be giving it a try tomorrow. Really great. Thanks

  97. Fraaz Ali says:

    Hi, Tom.

    Let you know I’m deaf but had still problem with my english but I can understand of your explaining. I hope you understand my English because I had many missing words to add up in scene.

    However, I’m not sure how to using on “step 5″. Can you please explain some really easy for me to following of your step 5. Step 1 to 4 is an excellent explaining as I followed your tutorial.

    you should record it or make a video of this tutorial.

    email me, Dr.Hitman@hotmail.co.uk with your explaining by Step 5.

    thanks

  98. oes tsetnoc says:

    just toooo gooood. You are a genious man.

  118. Jeferson says:

    hello, you okay?
    I’m with a doubt, in step 5
    “Step 5:

    Now create a new layer set called “picture 1″. Paste the image you want to handle. View a grid over the image and use the Free Transform tool to resize your picture to fit perfectly into small squares. Make sure the photo fits into the same number of boxes for your height and width. In this example, the picture is resized to be 8 squares wide and six high. ”

    I can not find in my photoshop cs, this tool make the photo checkered, you would like me to explain how I do it?

    Such a brilliant tutorial on how to produce a laptop advert, and really love the final outcome, Thank you for sharing this tutorial!

  130. It could look better in flash with some animation on it when someone is with the mouse over, but it looks cool even like this.

  131. Carolyn says:

    I love your tuts I really do, but I find them hard to follow this one was hard to follow being new to InDesign, and well photo shop(though I can understand photo shop a lot better. )I find it hard to follow, example, when you said put your photo in a grid, well I don’t know how to do that, exactly, and then you really do not let us know if we are suppose to be in indesign or photoshop. So I find it confusing a little, I had to give up this tut, because I could not find exactly how to put the picture into a grid and to resize or whatever to it. I hope your future tuts will give exact instructions so that we who are still trying to learn even the basic of indesign can do this as well.
    Like I said love the tuts just wish there was more detail where how to do the steps to get where we need to go so we can finish a project your showing. Thanks for doing these none the less.

  132. iris says:

    This tutorial is pretty interesting yet helpful. I find it very professionally written and well explained. The step by step guide is none the less. Thanks for these instructions.

  161. ismail khan says:

    hey tom i would like you to make some video tutorials instead. because the written tutorials are more time consuming so everyone cant read them easily who really wanna learn something special !!! so if you don’t mind i guess you can take my suggestions. it would also help you to increase your reputation in the world of art. !!! Thumbs up :)

    • Tom says:

      Hi Ismail. Thanks for the suggestion. It’s a really good idea and something we’re looking closely at. However, they take quite a bit of time to get organized, so it’s something I want to spend enough time planning.

  162. yan says:

    The only part i didnt understand is 6-7,can you explain how to do that? sorry my english very bad

    • smartboy says:

      Hi yan the step 6-7 are easy just have to use grid and then select centre point and by using single column marquee tool select and single row marquee tool and then expand the selection direct by go through select<modify<expand by 3px and hit delete.
      it is easy way rather to use magic wand tool….
      hope u understand.. thanks
