Photoshop's new features

Over the summer Photoshop came out with an update, Photoshop CC 2015.5. Photoshop CC 2015.5 is better and has some new features. Some of the new features are: better collar with libraries, updated libraries panel, selection and masking spaces, everyday tasks, matching fonts, adjusting facial features, work easier with glyphs, 3D printing to Microsoft 3MF, create patterns with Adobe Capture CC, and many more.

To start out this year in Web Design we did a project over the new photoshop features. What we had to do was pick one of the new features and learn how to do it then when we present we will be teaching the class how to use the new feature we found. The new feature that I chose to do was the matching fonts feature.
This is a tutorial on how to use matching fonts in Photoshop CC 2015.5:
1st step: The first step in using the new feature is finding an image with words that you think is cool or just any image with words I used this image I found on morguefiles.com.









2nd step: The next step is going to the type tool on the panel and typing out the word above or below the original word.









3rd step: After typing out the word you go to the marquee tool and you put a marquee over the original word. Staying on the text layer you go up to the type menu.


 4th step: Under the type menu is a option called match font. Click on the 
match font and then a pop up menu of different font names show up. The font names are all the fonts that are come close to the word you want to recreate.













5th step: Once you find the font that you like that you think matches the image then you click on it and hit ok. The font that I chose that I liked was nanum Brush Script Regular












Don’t forget to save your work. I hope this tutorial has helped you learn more about the matching fonts feature.

Kelvin's Kitchen Logo

Image
For these 4 logos I did a plate with the words Kelvin's Kitchen on them, but I chose 2 different fonts. The font that I used in the top row is Dawning of a New Day. The second font I used for the bottom row is The Heart Maze Demo. I did this logo because it is supposed to represent something like ketchup or a sauce written on the plate. Then I made it with a black plate and a white plate. I also made one bigger version and 2 smaller versions. On these 4 logos I had the object be a cutting board. With the same 2 fonts and in the same positions as the ones on the plate. I also made the cutting boards black and white. I also made one version of the logo bigger and then 2 logos smaller versions. If you have any feedback on either logo please let me know in the comments.

Shadow

Image
For the shadow project I created this in Adobe Photoshop. We had to take an object an create a shadow with it. I chose to create a shadow for a pumpkin. I first had to find an image of a project and since the image I found had more things then I needed I took it into Photoshop and removed the background with the mask tool. Once that was finished, I started to make the shadow of the object. I used the gradient tool and had the image go from black to white for the shadow. In this project I learned how to make a shadow and I leaned how to use the gradient tool better.
