3D Beatles Vinil Record

3D Beatles Vinil Record. 15 min project

"In the town where I was born,
Lived a man who sailed to sea,
And he told us of his life,
In the land of submarines,

So we sailed on to the sun,
Till we found a sea of green,
And we lived beneath the waves,
In our yellow submarine..."
 

1. Create New Layer(Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+Alt/Opt+N) and fill it in grey. Set this Layer Blending Mode to Dissolve and Layer Opacity to 50%. Select All( Ctrl/Cmd+A) and Copy Merged(Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+C), Paste(Ctrl/Cmd+V) to new Layer.

 

2. To make concentric circles use Filters -> Blur -> Radial Blur. Apply Radial Blur two more times.

 
3. Apply Levels with shown on the corresponding picture settings.
 
4. There are numerous ways to create lights, though I chosed shown way below. Cut out disc and Paste it to New Layer. Draw Angle Gradient(G) from a center of the disc on a new Layer. You can make your own Gradient Fill(I used preset Gradient from Photoshop default set and Dissaturated it). Set Blending Mode to Screen and Layer Opacity to 50%. Duplicate Layer and Rotate its content at 180° with same Scren Mode and Opacity.
 

5. After creation of all necessary elements, I used Select All( Ctrl/Cmd+A) commandand Copy Merged(Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+C), Paste(Ctrl/Cmd+V) to new Layer.

6. Make New Layer. To cheat for the sake of illusion of 3d perspective, I used Filter -> Vanishing Point. Create perspective grid and Paste(Ctrl/Cmd+V) contents of the Clipboard(rember? image of the disc still there). It will appear flat first, but when you move it right on the grid, it will lay in the needed perspective. Use Free Transform(Ctrl/Cmd+T) inside Vanishing Point interface to proportionally decrease size.
