How to draw a DVD Box with photoshop:

I grabbed an image from google images, taken from the Basic Instinct 2 movie…

Image 1


let’s start…

1st of all, I’m going to cut this image into two layers:

Image 2

For each layer, Edit->Stroke and set the Width:2px, color:black and Location:Inside.

Image 3

now select the larger layer from the layers menu and then Edit->Transform->Distort.

Then try to distort the layers the way I did in the following screenshot:

Image 4

now using your arrows move the small layer right to touch the big one! It will look like the following:

Image 5

there still the top part missing! you can add another image! or a part of the image or just a black box the way I’m gonna do. Then Distort it the way we did before… and join it to the other layers. It will look like the following

Image 6

let’s now merge the 3 layers into one later… and add a white background layer… and why not adding shadow using the Layer->Layer Style->Drop Shadow and use the following options:

and that’s it! we’re done!

Stay tuned!
