Hi there in this video. We're going to take the runner here and make it look like he's moving nice and fast using motion blue. We'll also do it to this taxi here not zoom in zoom in. Alright. It's another Photoshop filter. Let's learn how to do it. All right to get started. Let's open up a couple of files. Its motion blur. 01 and motion blur. Oh too thanks. Hi Tish. Okay, we're gonna work on the runner first to get started. Let's create two backgrounds. So let's right, click the word background, click duplicate layer. This one's going to be called Runner and the bottom line here, double click the word background and name it. There are two of them. So we need to work on these separately. So let's turn the runner off and let's blur the background first and then we'll mask the runner. It's a nice easy filter. We're going to learn. So let's go to filter. Go down to blur. There's one in there called motion blur. If yours doesn't change either previews not on or you've still got the runner e...

yeball turned on because if that's on, it's kind of covering the work we're doing. So pick the direction our run is probably going to be running left or right. He could be running any which way you like maybe maybe up into the right a little bit straight across in terms of the distance. House tricky, it gets how fast you want this man to be running, depends if you're going for like exaggeration or if you're going for like just subtle nous mind going for subtle. It's okay let's turn the runner layer back on and let's click on it so now let's mask out the man we're going to use the quick selection tool. I'm using a brush of about what am I using? 50 clicking holding and dragging across all the parts. It's pretty forgiving this because like in an earlier tutorial we're kind of replacing him back on the same background so we can be pretty lax with the selection. You might disagree. You can get in there nice and zoomed in and get it to be perfect. I'm gonna zoom in. It's looking okay it's looking okay looking terrible, grab his head, grab his hand, bits of hand. That was a bad one and do so I have to make my brush a lot smaller. His skin tone is a lot of the same as the background. I'm gonna hold down the key to minus from this election or option on a Mac. Same in here I'm going to hold down the option key on my MAC or a PC and just get rid of this stuff in the center here. Really small brush minus sing it out. Would that be back in? Okay I'm just having a quick look now I'm doing the quick version of this. Okay if this is gonna be the front cover of your magazine. You probably want to make your layer mask and then get into that selected mask that we looked at a previous tutorial. Okay to get it all looking perfect. That's not what we're doing today. Going quick. Alright, that's good enough for me to mount. Cool. So all we need to do now is make sure the runner layer selected click on layer mask. Basically we're done. If you had a keen eye, what we should have done before we blew this layer is we should have selected it. Gone to filter and gone to convert smart filters. It was a test. Did you notice? I'm pretending it's a test I just forgot. Let's click OK. The damage is done. So I need to go back to the beginning but I'm not but I converted it to our smart filter. Now I'm going to go to filter and go over the top of it again with blur motion blur and crank it up some more. The nice thing about that is remember you can turn it on and off. All right in your project. What I want you to do is here in this 02 from high Tish there's mint looking taxi. I want you to do the exact same thing. So duplicate the layers, have the car layer and the blur layer, blur the background layer mask out the car and see if you can make it look like it's going fast. All right, everybody that is a quick motion blue. Now we've gone through lots of different filters here and I eventually got to call it quits on it because we could do 10 hours of just looking at filters. What I'm hoping you're getting out of it is that you can see how to use them non destructively by using our smart object and we can do fun things like ticks and masks. There's just one more we need to do before we go. And it's a, it's a rite of passage in Photoshop. We'll do it in the next video.
