  • How to get a “carved effect” on text

    Posted by Linda O’connell on August 20, 2011 at 9:35 pm

    I am trying to make my text look like it was carved into my video clip as opposed to “floating” on top like standard texts looks. (Kind of like something that is carved into wood)

    Any ideas to point me in the right direction?

    Use the Convolution Kernel with the Emboss preset. That will give you gray embossed text. Then change the upper right number to 1.2 if you want the real color of the text to be the face.
