1
1
00:00:00,030 --> 00:00:02,947
(energizing music)
2
2
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:06,060
Let's create an image
3
3
00:00:06,060 --> 00:00:08,090
using the split screen principle.
4
4
00:00:08,090 --> 00:00:09,540
So, we'll go create new.
5
5
00:00:09,540 --> 00:00:12,630
And, as we know, the document has to always
6
6
00:00:12,630 --> 00:00:14,800
have the YouTube metrics of
7
7
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:17,660
1280 across and 720 high.
8
8
00:00:17,660 --> 00:00:18,930
It's taking a second or so for this
9
9
00:00:18,930 --> 00:00:20,330
to open for some reason, okay.
10
10
00:00:20,330 --> 00:00:21,530
Here it is here.
11
11
00:00:21,530 --> 00:00:23,290
And we're going to select create.
12
12
00:00:23,290 --> 00:00:25,150
And on this side here,
13
13
00:00:25,150 --> 00:00:28,670
we'll create text for how to be a better investor.
14
14
00:00:28,670 --> 00:00:30,194
And then we'll put an image on the right.
15
15
00:00:30,194 --> 00:00:33,410
Let's put the text in first.
16
16
00:00:33,410 --> 00:00:35,080
What we do is we grab text here
17
17
00:00:36,623 --> 00:00:39,253
and we'll just type all in caps, as always.
18
18
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:42,650
Okay, great.
19
19
00:00:42,650 --> 00:00:45,770
And I'm gonna select that
20
20
00:00:45,770 --> 00:00:48,253
and I'm gonna break it up, make it a lot bigger.
21
21
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,520
How to be a better investor.
22
22
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:54,600
Make it left justified
23
23
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:56,110
and then we'll go here
24
24
00:00:58,042 --> 00:00:59,940
and we'll just make it bigger.
25
25
00:00:59,940 --> 00:01:01,840
And you can also make the font size bigger
26
26
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,170
by changing the size of the font over here,
27
27
00:01:04,170 --> 00:01:06,560
but I like to keep it simplistic.
28
28
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:10,333
Control t or command t to select that text.
29
29
00:01:11,610 --> 00:01:13,673
It's a little bit too big for halfway.
30
30
00:01:14,700 --> 00:01:15,940
That's good enough.
31
31
00:01:15,940 --> 00:01:16,773
Okay, great.
32
32
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:19,050
And then what we're gonna do is,
33
33
00:01:19,050 --> 00:01:20,983
and we'll play around with the colors in a minute.
34
34
00:01:22,166 --> 00:01:23,590
I want to get an image on this side
35
35
00:01:23,590 --> 00:01:25,810
that kind of shows how to be a better investor.
36
36
00:01:25,810 --> 00:01:27,323
And I love that analogy give a person
37
37
00:01:27,323 --> 00:01:28,810
a fish they eat for a day,
38
38
00:01:28,810 --> 00:01:30,530
teach a person to fish they eat for a lifetime.
39
39
00:01:30,530 --> 00:01:34,640
So, let's go here and what I do is
40
40
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:38,063
I subscribe to this service called Storyblocks.
41
41
00:01:38,980 --> 00:01:41,520
And this is where I get my music from,
42
42
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,840
some of my videos and also images.
43
43
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:48,130
So, what I'll do here is I'll select on images
44
44
00:01:48,130 --> 00:01:50,700
and it will automatically log me in right now.
45
45
00:01:50,700 --> 00:01:52,410
And I'm gonna go to images I've
46
46
00:01:52,410 --> 00:01:54,940
already downloaded in the past
47
47
00:01:54,940 --> 00:01:59,940
as I used this fisherman cartoon image awhile ago.
48
48
00:02:01,950 --> 00:02:02,783
My media.
49
49
00:02:09,860 --> 00:02:13,710
And I'll search for the word fish.
50
50
00:02:13,710 --> 00:02:15,549
And there it is. Okay, great.
51
51
00:02:15,549 --> 00:02:19,030
What I'll do is I'll download this.
52
52
00:02:19,030 --> 00:02:20,810
I'll use jpg format.
53
53
00:02:20,810 --> 00:02:22,540
And, if you want to use Adobe Illustrator
54
54
00:02:22,540 --> 00:02:25,410
you can download what's called a vetric file
55
55
00:02:25,410 --> 00:02:28,900
which allow you to actually break up the layers here.
56
56
00:02:28,900 --> 00:02:30,060
But I want to keep it simplistic.
57
57
00:02:30,060 --> 00:02:32,600
I'll just download a jpg and then
58
58
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:34,500
I'll just copy it and insert it directly
59
59
00:02:34,500 --> 00:02:37,060
into Photoshop.
60
60
00:02:37,060 --> 00:02:38,120
There it is there.
61
61
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:38,953
Copy,
62
62
00:02:40,150 --> 00:02:40,983
paste.
63
63
00:02:40,983 --> 00:02:41,890
There you go, good.
64
64
00:02:41,890 --> 00:02:44,190
Control t or command t
65
65
00:02:44,190 --> 00:02:46,083
so I can make that a lot smaller.
66
66
00:02:47,490 --> 00:02:50,003
I'll go in to highspeed mode until I get this perfect.
67
67
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,490
That looks good to me, okay.
68
68
00:02:53,490 --> 00:02:54,510
What we're gonna do is,
69
69
00:02:54,510 --> 00:02:56,640
I'm gonna color this side here
70
70
00:02:56,640 --> 00:02:59,063
using some of the colors from here.
71
71
00:02:59,063 --> 00:03:01,049
I'm not gonna use the color wheel,
72
72
00:03:01,049 --> 00:03:02,910
but you could do that if you wanted to.
73
73
00:03:02,910 --> 00:03:06,250
I just want it to be consistent with the colors over here.
74
74
00:03:06,250 --> 00:03:07,830
So, let me first of all
75
75
00:03:09,290 --> 00:03:11,000
spread this out a little bit better.
76
76
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,570
How to be a better investor.
77
77
00:03:13,570 --> 00:03:15,170
And I think I want to center it.
78
78
00:03:18,530 --> 00:03:19,590
Great.
79
79
00:03:19,590 --> 00:03:22,900
And I want the text to match what's over here.
80
80
00:03:22,900 --> 00:03:24,700
So, I'll make it blue.
81
81
00:03:24,700 --> 00:03:26,350
Let's see how that looks.
82
82
00:03:26,350 --> 00:03:27,360
Okay, great.
83
83
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,130
And then I want to add a background
84
84
00:03:29,130 --> 00:03:30,384
that would match something here.
85
85
00:03:30,384 --> 00:03:32,510
Maybe what I'll do is I'll make it yellow
86
86
00:03:32,510 --> 00:03:34,110
so it kind of bleeds over here.
87
87
00:03:34,110 --> 00:03:35,710
Will look kind of nice, as well.
88
88
00:03:36,740 --> 00:03:37,840
So, the way we do that is we
89
89
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:39,550
go down here to the background
90
90
00:03:39,550 --> 00:03:41,440
and then we select the color we want
91
91
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:42,660
to paint with and, as always,
92
92
00:03:42,660 --> 00:03:44,790
there's a million ways to do things in Photoshop.
93
93
00:03:44,790 --> 00:03:47,730
I'll select this color here, okay.
94
94
00:03:47,730 --> 00:03:49,970
Then I'll select the paintbrush over here
95
95
00:03:51,010 --> 00:03:53,910
and it's already in a massive, massive size.
96
96
00:03:53,910 --> 00:03:54,743
That's fine.
97
97
00:03:54,743 --> 00:03:56,100
I'm just gonna do one stroke here.
98
98
00:03:56,100 --> 00:03:57,795
Boom and we're done.
99
99
00:03:57,795 --> 00:03:59,480
And there you go.
100
100
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:00,340
And you might be saying,
101
101
00:04:00,340 --> 00:04:02,975
wait a second, Chris, that's not perfectly centered.
102
102
00:04:02,975 --> 00:04:05,960
So, I can drag this over a touch if I wanted to.
103
103
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:07,220
Drag that over slightly.
104
104
00:04:07,220 --> 00:04:08,053
Yeah, that's good enough.
105
105
00:04:08,053 --> 00:04:09,210
You can make this even slightly bigger
106
106
00:04:09,210 --> 00:04:11,513
if you wanted to, hit command t or control t.
107
107
00:04:12,350 --> 00:04:15,770
And drag it up just slightly, just slightly.
108
108
00:04:15,770 --> 00:04:18,100
That's a little bit cramped there, right.
109
109
00:04:18,100 --> 00:04:19,610
All right.
110
110
00:04:19,610 --> 00:04:21,740
Yeah, that looks good.
111
111
00:04:21,740 --> 00:04:23,690
Gonna pretty up this text a little bit.
112
112
00:04:25,470 --> 00:04:26,563
Double click.
113
113
00:04:28,230 --> 00:04:31,023
Let's add a little bit of a stroke.
114
114
00:04:32,810 --> 00:04:34,640
Make it a little bit, whoops.
115
115
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:36,640
Stroke there, pardon me.
116
116
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,883
Make the opacity a little bit less.
117
117
00:04:40,420 --> 00:04:42,430
Stands out a bit more.
118
118
00:04:42,430 --> 00:04:43,263
That's nice.
119
119
00:04:45,100 --> 00:04:47,552
If you wanted you, you can even grab another color here.
120
120
00:04:47,552 --> 00:04:49,020
Let's do that, let's have fun.
121
121
00:04:49,020 --> 00:04:51,113
Let's grab orange.
122
122
00:04:54,027 --> 00:04:54,860
Eh.
123
123
00:04:56,918 --> 00:04:57,751
Let's grab
124
124
00:05:00,650 --> 00:05:02,563
Let's grab brown right here.
125
125
00:05:03,990 --> 00:05:06,973
And we'll make the opacity a little bit more.
126
126
00:05:07,852 --> 00:05:10,230
Kind of matches nicely on the right side just slightly.
127
127
00:05:10,230 --> 00:05:13,053
And now what we can do is we can add a drop shadow.
128
128
00:05:14,330 --> 00:05:17,123
I like to make it slightly off to the side.
129
129
00:05:18,170 --> 00:05:19,223
This side, whoops.
130
130
00:05:21,610 --> 00:05:26,390
And I'll make it a little bit less visible in the distance.
131
131
00:05:26,390 --> 00:05:27,973
A little bit less so.
132
132
00:05:28,830 --> 00:05:30,930
It looks nice, that's fine, yeah.
133
133
00:05:30,930 --> 00:05:33,603
Then the last thing we'll do is we'll export this.
134
134
00:05:35,350 --> 00:05:38,203
And, we'll just export it as a jpg.
135
135
00:05:44,620 --> 00:05:47,160
Size is 319 and it's a little bit
136
136
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,457
bigger than when we did the opposite
137
137
00:05:49,457 --> 00:05:52,470
lesson in the previous section because
138
138
00:05:52,470 --> 00:05:56,050
we've got an image here and not just text.
139
139
00:05:56,050 --> 00:05:57,660
But we're well within the less
140
140
00:05:57,660 --> 00:05:59,720
than two megabits threshold that
141
141
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:01,620
YouTube wants for thumbnails.
142
142
00:06:01,620 --> 00:06:03,740
So, I'll select export here
143
143
00:06:05,130 --> 00:06:08,460
and what I'll do is I'll name this one
144
144
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,763
split screen jpg.
145
145
00:06:15,860 --> 00:06:18,900
As always, all the images are attached.
146
146
00:06:18,900 --> 00:06:21,060
And then what I'll do is I'm going to
147
147
00:06:21,060 --> 00:06:25,230
save this as split screen
148
148
00:06:26,430 --> 00:06:27,780
that's good enough - psd.
149
149
00:06:28,980 --> 00:06:31,360
And I'll also attach this image here,
150
150
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,340
which I'll call fisherman image.
151
151
00:06:34,340 --> 00:06:37,040
If you have any questions, please let me know, thanks.
