First we are going to create a new document in Photoshop with 1000\u00d71000 pixels with all the default settings. Fill the background layer with black color.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/a><\/div> \r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t
\r\n \"image-1355\"\r\n <\/div><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Step 2<\/strong><\/p>\n

Select Horizontal Type Tool and place any text (white color, caps on) filling all background as you can see below. Only use one text layer.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/a><\/div> \r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t
\r\n \"image-1356\"\r\n <\/div><\/a><\/p>\n

Rotate text 45 degrees CW by going to Edit > Transform > Rotate.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/a><\/div> \r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t
\r\n \"image-1357\"\r\n <\/div><\/a><\/p>\n

Step 3<\/strong><\/p>\n

Open photo and copy it to our canvas over text layer. Go to Edit > Free Transform and resize photo to something similar to what I have.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/a><\/div> \r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t
\r\n \"image-1358\"\r\n <\/div><\/a><\/p>\n

Select text from text layer (Ctrl+left click on text layer thumbnail in layers). Press Ctrl+Shift+I to invert selection. With selection active, select photo layer and press Delete to clear selection contents.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/a><\/div> \r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t
\r\n \"image-1359\"\r\n <\/div><\/a>
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

Press Ctrl+D to deactivate selection.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/a><\/div> \r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t
\r\n \"image-1360\"\r\n <\/div><\/a><\/p>\n

Apply Image > Adjustments > Brightness\/Contrast.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/a><\/div> \r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t
\r\n \"image-1361\"\r\n <\/div><\/a><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/a><\/div> \r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t
\r\n \"image-1362\"\r\n <\/div><\/a><\/p>\n

Step 4<\/strong><\/p>\n

Create a new layer. Select Horizontal Tool (Arial, white color, 55px) and write something like \u201cDJ Music!\u201d. Create a second new layer and write \u201cOnly best hits!\u201d (Arial, white color, 25px).<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/a><\/div> \r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t
\r\n \"image-1363\"\r\n <\/div><\/a><\/p>\n

Rotate text 45 degrees CW by going to Edit > Transform > Rotate on both layers.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/a><\/div> \r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t
\r\n \"image-1364\"\r\n <\/div><\/a><\/p>\n

Apply Layer > Layer Style > Blending Options > Outer Glow to both layer to make it more readable.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/a><\/div> \r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t
\r\n \"image-1365\"\r\n <\/div><\/a><\/p>\n

Final Image<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/a><\/div> \r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t
\r\n \"image-1366\"\r\n <\/div><\/a><\/p>\n

This tutorial is now finished and you got a great effect!<\/p>\n
