Jumping Jack Garry —- Puppet Warp

The Next Step

Here’s how to make the above “video”

Step 1

Duplicate Layer 1, (the Garry Layer) and Activate the bottom Garry layer by clicking on it to turn it blue, and turn “on” the eye ball…

Step 2

Reload the garry selection that you saved earlier

load-selectiongarry

Now choose the Menu Item

Edit > Puppet Warp and set the pins where you want the joints to move and add pins at  the hands and feet so you can change their positions

set  pins

Just hold down the mouse button with the pointer over the hands and feet pins and drag the mouse to change their positions

move arms - legs

When you are done with the moves click the check mark to accept the changes.

To save all your layers save the file as a .psd (PhotoShop Document) file. If you save the file as a .jpg or .png file you’ll loose all your layers. Saving the file with a .tif extension also saves layer information.

To make the Animation, I used the Animation palette but that’s a whole other story for a later class…

Have fun warping and have a great July the 4th Or Canada Day on July 1

Got a question ‘holler

in the mean time

Practice, practice practice
