Hey class-

Today we will use multiple layers and transparency to make cool image. Start by selecting a few images and get them on a blank doc. They adjust the layer opacity to make the ghost-like effect.

Images can be cut out and duplicated.

Type your name on a blank image (600 x 400/ 72 dpi).

Use a font that represents your personality. Play with the style, angle, warp, size, etc.

Use the Paste Into trick we used yesterday to make a composition about who you are.

Now play with the text using the layer effects (drop a shadow or bevel the edges).
