This is the final result of this episode, a giant text with a tropical wave photo inside, accompanied by a circle containing a beach umbrella photo. Everything uses a clipping mask. Let's get started. Hello, welcome back to the complete Adobe Photoshop series from Cerdas Inovasi Digital. A clipping mask makes a layer only visible within the shape of the layer below it. With this technique, we can insert a photo into text, circles, or any shape. Create a new document 1600x900 pixels and fill the background with a cream color.
Select the Type Tool, use the Arial Black font in a very large size, then type 'pantai'. The text color doesn't matter because it will be covered by the photo.
Select File, Place Embedded, and choose the tropical beach photo. The photo covers the entire canvas and is positioned exactly on top of the text layer. Press Enter.
Press Alt Ctrl G, or hold Alt and click the line between the two layers. The photo immediately goes into the 'pantai' text. In the Layers panel, the photo layer is clipped with a small arrow pointing to the text layer below it.
With the Move Tool, move the photo layer so that the white waves are visible inside the text. The text remains in place, only its content moves. The text can still be edited anytime.
Select the Ellipse Tool, hold Shift and draw a circle in the top right. Place the beach umbrella photo on top of it, then press Alt Ctrl G again. The umbrella photo now fills the circle.
Select the text layer, click the FX icon and choose Drop Shadow with 30% opacity and a small distance. The shadow on the container automatically shapes the text containing the photo.
Save the PS to keep the text and photo editable, then export as JPG.
Done. We've already created text as a container, placed the photo, created a clipping mask with Alt Ctrl G, moved the content, filled the circle with the photo, and added a shadow. In the next episode, we'll learn about Blend Mode Darken and Multiply. Need to edit product photos for marketplace, retouch photos, design posters, or social media content?
