Changing The Colour
Transcript:
0:00 So to change the colour with MISPRINTED, it's pretty straightforward, but it's a little workaround. So, what I like to do is when I'm using MISPRINTED, I'll pop all my elements in a group. 0:11 So just select them all, CTRL-G, and let's give that a name, because I'm really bad at not naming stuff. And we'll just go to our STYLES panel, and we'll just pick one of these wood ones. 0:26 That is so naughty, man. This is crazy. Good. This is pretty outrageous. WOODWORM LARGE. We'll see, we're a little bit zoomed out, just to get everything in. 0:37 And even if our type itself has got colour, we'll find that when we apply one of the MISPRINTED effects, it makes everything black. 0:45 Uhm, and, that's so they're all constant throughout, and it means that we have this lovely in the background, which is delightful. 0:57 But, or you might want to change the colour. So, what we can do is, just pop our paper texture and background back on. 1:04 got this folder of MISPRINTED. What I'm going to do is press CTRL or CMD G to pop that into another group. 1:11 I'm going to call this colour overlay. And then, you can either, with the little layer styles effects icon, go and select colour overlay. 1:23 But I think more of a flexible way of doing it is actually creating a solid colour adjustment. Let's just pick, it's quite a nice cobalt blue that I was using for it. 1:34 Um, and we'll make sure we drag that above our colour overlay folder. Then we hit ALT or OPTION on a Mac to clip it to it. 1:47 Or we could have right clicked and done, let's just see here, CREATE CLIPPING MASK. And you'll see with this little arrow to the left that it's working, it's clipping down onto that layer. 1:58 I'm not going to I'm just going to drag it over to And I'm going to click the abstract colors so if we clip this to the type and now because we have this and the blue what I can do with this abstract color pattern is actually play with the blending modes And we can get some pretty Mental results some 2:34 good some bad. That's quite fun creating this kind of nice dirty colors in the middle where you're mixing ink the kind of Mixing and not really playing well together, but that's kind of fun so that's how you do it and i'll just show you if you were to skip out making a new group and just clip it to You 2:54 know your group with the misprinted It just won't do anything because it's inherent in the system. The color from the pattern overlay. 3:01 It's not going to take this clipped color on board. So I just pop it in a second group Like that And clip anything I want to it And if I wanted to have say a different color for the bottom one i'd just make another solid color Change the color of this. 3:19 This is all gonna look a little bit horrendous And just simply mask it to wherever I want So now we have, let's get rid of this, we have This orange color on this text down here and The blue on the big text above but with that Because you're creating these kind of static Layer masks when you move anything 3:43 within them like this text You see it's gonna break a little bit. So just keep that in mind when you're playing with it But yeah, hope that clears that up. 3:51 That's how to make make how to add color in misprinted
