Welcome back.
So in this video, we're going to talk about the gradient tool, the paint bucket and the 3D material
drop tool.
So let's do the great into a first.
So basically the gradient tool is blending the foreground and background together.
That's one way to work with it.
The other way to do it is you can grab presets.
So we can ballou's.
Guy.
In fact, let's grab this one.
OK?
And we'll just drag this down.
And there you go.
There's our gradient.
OK.
Now, if I do this with control z. and then we go in and we did what we did in the last video, which
is grab the magic eraser tool and unlock our layer.
And delete all that.
And then I create a new layer, put it below our image and grab the great mantle and drag down.
Now we have a cool look and background with our image.
And I have sand in my hair again.
But I'm Bob.
I'm here all week.
Now I'm just kidding.
But that looks cool with the blue background, you know.
So that's how you add a gradient to your Photoshop document.
Now, the other part of this is, is you have the paint bucket tool.
So if I make a new layer and I grab the color block and I drop that and now we have a solid color a
block.
OK.
So if you want to have a mixture of colors, you use the gradient tool.
If you want to just have one solid color.
Then you'd use the paint bucket.
And the paint.
But can I use all the time some of the gradients.
And then we have the 3D material drop tool.
OK, which I'm not available to use because I don't have a 3D objects, I'm not going to get into too
much because we're doing photo editing.
So thanks for watching.
And I will see you in the next video.
