Description

About this Course
In this course you will learn how I created the Dojo for the little animation of the Ninja Kicks Animation in 5 steps.

This course was created to teach you how to create a background in Photoshop.

The 5 steps are:

Create the texture of the floor. Not from the correct camera angle, but from the top view, so we can add texture and some shading. We will create a flat image.
Then, we put that floor with texture in perspective, so it looks as if it was 3D. This is accomplished by control+clicking the corners and move the perspective points of the image.
Then we will create the top of the Dojo. That is easy, we will just use a duplicate of the texture we used for the ground and use it on top.
Then we will create the Doors and the Wall. We will use the reference and use the same pattern used for the Japanese Doors, copying the texture and the shadows.
And finally we will create an effect as if the light was pouring in from the outside into the inside of the Dojo.
If you already know how to use Photoshop, then you don't have to take this course, you can just check the trailer and check the 2 minute tutorial at the begining of the trailer.

But if you don't have much experience and you are a beginner who is learning how to produce images in Photoshop, then this course is for you.

Inside I explain each one of the steps in detail.

So, if you are a beginner, enroll now, and I will see you inside :)

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
