HOW TO CREATE SHADING

The first step of creating the shading is to determine the angle or the direction of focusing on it. It has to be created in the opposite side to the light source. So, it’s important to identify the light source as well. The sense perception of the graphic designer is very important in this regard. An experienced graphic designer can create the best shading effect.

The next step is to cut out the image from its original background and to put it on a transparent background. Then you have to take two more layers under the layer of the subject. The lower layer should be pure white and the upper one is the desired layer for creating the hollow man effect.

Now, create a clipping path layer and draw the shape of the shading with Photoshop pen tool. Then, select the path, apply necessary feather (it depends on the resolution of the image) and make the selection area black. Don’t forget to add necessary blur to the black layer. The next step is to touch up the shadow dimension to give the best shape. Finally adjust the opacity according to the requirement. It can be 40% or 50% or 60% or anything that will make the shadow most realistic.
