How to create a stereoscopic 3D effect in Photoshop
Would you believe that this cool looking 3D effect can be done in less then 5 steps? Let me show you how using Photoshop.

|
 |
1.
|
|
|
Open a picture
It works the best on photos with a neutral background.
I used the picture of lovely Zooey Deschanel.
|
|
| |
2.
|
|
|
Duplicate the image by clicking Layer in the menu and choosing Duplicate Layer... (Ctrl + J for a keyboard shortcut).
Click OK to confirm the new layer if a window pops up.
|
|
| |
3.
|
|
|
In the menu click Layer, Layer Style and choose Blending Options...
In Blending Options window disable G (green) and B (blue) channels (see picture).
|
|
| |
4.
|
|
|
In the menu click Edit and choose Free Transform.
Right click the document and choose Warp.
|
|
| |
5.
|
|
|
Now use your mouse and drag on different points of the mesh to achieve that stereoscopic 3D look of your choice.
|
|
| |
6.
|
|
|
When done click Commit transform (Return) button.
|
|
| |
7.
|
|
|
The 3D effect is basically done. But lets continue to tweak the image a bit more. I don't want the 3D effect to be on the eyes that's why I'm masking it out.
Click the add layer mask button on the duplicated layer (see picture).
|
|
| |
8.
|
|
|
Choose the Brush Tool (B for a keyboard shorcut).
|
|
| |
9.
|
|
|
You should have the black/white color for the foreground/background set.
If you added the layer mask this most probably already is the case.
|
|
| |
10.
|
|
|
Carefully keep clicking over the eyes or the parts of the image where you don't want the stereoscopic 3D effect to be going on.
|
|
| |
11.
|
|
|
That's it, you are done.
