In this video, we're going to be learning how to place objects in perspective. Just like that business card in here, in that mock up for presentation for a client, maybe I have that business core designed in Adobe Illustrator. And I copied that from illustrator to Photoshop in that file in here. So in our Layers panel, we have two layers we have Victor smart object, which is our business court face side. And we have backside on other layer that layer and you will find these files in your resources. This for a medical companies that I'm working at, and I'm working there as a chief designer, however, I made a slight changes to face side of that business card.
So I change it logo of course. And also I used dummy text in here. So now we need to be placing that in perspective in our microphone and I'm going to be starting with backsight so this disabling the clear, we have our back side on that layer. And I'm going to be pressing Command D to reselect that in order to select that business card guys, you can be pressing Command or Control on the thumbnail icon. Now we have that selected, we can be pressing Command or Ctrl C to copy that. Then let's go back to our mocha file.
I'm going to be disabling that layer including back and face side and we're going to be creating that one from scratch. So let's disable that one creating a new layer. Let's call that one vanishing point as well, too. Then we need to be applying vanishing point filter going to filter will be enabling that filter on that new layer. Now we can be creating a blend selecting that plane tool in here or pressing C on keyboard while you are in vanishing point. Then we'll be drawing these points, just trying to mimic that business court dimension.
Now we are getting blue edges, which means we have a correct plane. However, if I start maybe dragging that one outside, now it's turning into yellow, which means that Photoshop is telling us that this is not a real plane. And if I go even extreme, maybe something like that it's turning red. That means it's not gonna be working like that. So we need to make sure that we are in a blue grid. Going back adjusting that one.
Now we already copied our selection from our business card. We can be pasting that in here. If we go to Edit we're not going to be finding that active so we need to be pressing Command or Ctrl V to paste that business core back pressing Command or Ctrl V Now we have that backside of business card who can be draining that one to insert it within plane. And as you can see it's going inside already. Once we drag that one over on plane. Now we can be selecting our Transform tool to transform our plane.
So I'm going to be rotating that one. And as you can see it's rotating also in perspective. Now dragging that one, maybe to here, it's slightly bigger than our plane, so maybe we need to be reducing size for that one. Just a bit. still quite large, using size. That looks nice for presentation can be pressing return, or enter.
We've got that one saved within our plane. And now we are outside vanishing point two can be going back to that one by going to filter again while we have our layers selected. Then choosing vanishing point where we can be extending our rate, maybe like that. However, as you can see those two curves are not sharing the same perspective, maybe because they are not perfectly aligned. So instead I'm going to be drawing another plane, dragging that one as toes, then selecting our plane tool and rolling second plane. Going over edges as this image is working as a reference cross or that business court.
Now we have our second plane created for us who can be pressing OK. Then going to our business called foil. Now we need to be also selecting or layer to copy from that layer pressing Command or Ctrl C. Going back to our foil, filter, vanishing point pressing Command or Control V, then dragging our business chord all the way over or plane. And now it got in perspective, we need to be rotating that one, selecting our Transform tool, then rotating our business called slightly reducing size as its selected bit bigger. That case we need to be pressing Shift while we are transforming our shape, maybe a little bit of distortion as well as it doesn't really match its dimension for some reason. Maybe due to mocha foil because I didn't create that mocha foil. I found that one online, not jeans, that one using arrows.
This is just for demonstration purpose of our business card. Just make sure if you're going for some distortion, not to make it extreme. Now as you can see noises Looking already amazing. Now pressing OK. And both of them are existing within the same layer. In some cases, you might need to duplicate that layer multiple times, especially if you have colorful design, maybe four edges like that you can be duplicating that one pressing Command J, then move that one, merging that one a bit using arrows just to add the illusion of having multiple layers and keep doing that. And each of them would be modular bits.
If you'd like to add some depth within your mock up, you can be doing that trick or even you can slightly rotate that one pressing Command or Control T and slightly rotating these chords just a bit. Not to lose our perspective, giving the illusion that we have multiple cards in here. Can be nudging upon updates And so on, you will be finding those two files in your resources and you can be experimenting the same technique. So that's basically how you can be using vanishing point to place your mock ups. And in our next video, we're going to be learning how to clone a stem also within vanishing point.
