I have watched almost seven or more youtube clips to learn how to create a signature in photoshop. None of them helped me to create a signature that I could add to my photos. Your clip was the BEST of them!!! Thank you very much for providing this information!!
Just imagine if ALL tutorials on here were this great!! So many people lack the ability to communicate succinctly on here and it just becomes pretentious waffle, the amount of videos Ive tried to learn and the guys haven't even scripted or thought out the aim or outcome,First class stuff can't wait to see more, definitely getting along to some classes, cheers!
The BEST tutorial ever!!! I have spent so many hours trying to watch different videos in hopes of learning how to do this. This video made something I thought was so hard, easy! Thank you!
One of the BEST videos on how to create signature / watermark for photographs... Honestly, I have seen numbers of videos on this topic but every time found something missing, something was not clear - something was not quite there... But this video was the answer... Outstanding work sir... I have created a beautiful signature in 3 colors (B,G and W) ... Now I simply love the my pictures with my new signature/watermark. Big Thank you!
Thank you Marc works great. Most helpful. I created the text in black and then created the png in a couple of different ways. I then created a brush for each. Now I just have to add a new blank layer, pick a color to suit the image.
Another great tutorial from you. You are a natural teacher, you make the pupil feel relaxed which makes the learning process so much easier. I'm off to download the fonts, thank you.
Good tutorial. It's also possible, in Photoshop, to create a custom brush, and "stamp" it on a new layer on top of your photo. That way you can make it any color you want, resize it, and move it all around too.
This was just the biscuit! Exactly what I needed to know on how to create and use a watermark from scratch, cheers!! The only bit you didn't cover was how to add the watermark to LR and edit it, but I'm sure people will work it out!
Thanks Marc. At last a lesson that I can use to create my own personalised logo. You have included all the steps needed to sucessfully complete the assignment. It's the little bits that others lweave out that creates confusion. Well Done!!!!
@@theschoolofphotography I am an aspiring portrait photographer. Keen on starting a parallel career in photography. Apart from the website, do I get any assistance with information over a call? There are so many materials on web and it is easy to get confused. However, liked ur method of explaining. Interested to get in touch and get some insights/guidance.
Thankyou for a very logical and understandable video, I struggled for a few minutes dragging my signature on to my photograph but soon realised what I had done wrong, I subscribe to your courses and really enjoy then, thank you Marc.
@@theschoolofphotography Thank You for the excellent tutorial! Hope to close the 'loop' soon, meaning, to end my portfolio page and publish on IG with the new logo. Will place the hashtag . Cheers
Great tutorial Marc. Why pay for a watermark when you can so easily make one yourself. Thank you for taking the time to share this. You are a great teacher. Love your tutorials.
Thank you for sharing! You communicate well - and clearly! I have been looking forward to exploring my photography equipment for a long time and starting to cultivate my old passion again. I will look you up several times !!
Hi Marc ... I've been following your clip on UA-cam on how to make a .PNG Signature file. However at the "Save" stage, I clicked on Photoshop (*.PSD,*PDD,*.PSDT) however the drop down menu in the Current Version of Photoshop does not give me the .PNG option. I have the Photoshop (*.PSD,*PDD,*PSDT), Large Document Format (*.PSB), Photoshop PDF (*PDF,*PDP), and the TIFF (*TIF,*TIFF) ONLY .... WHICH ONE DO I CHOOSE? Thanks Gordon
Thank you for this great video - and especially for your awsome pronounciation. Although I'm no native speaker I can understand you better than most other English speaktin people. Best regards from Hamburg
Easy to follow and do. In my photoshop save as doesn't have a png so a bit of scratching the head thinking export it, and gives a options to save as a png. Job done. P.s hate lightroom and always use photoshop. Thanks again David
Thank you SO much Marc! Although I ended up doing a somewhat different process, all your information led me to make a logo for myself! Excellent work, can't wait to continue watching future videos.
thanks for the video Actually i got it but when im about to save it i dont know why i cant save it with PNG and i dont know what i can do with that thanks
Hi Marc. Enjoyed watching the tutorial but now doing it and I’ve got only so far because I don’t have a ‘tick’ on my top tool bar. I’ve got the full tool bar and have checked for extras but no tick can I find. Please advise. Thanks. Jane
Excellent tutorial, good sir! Thanks for taking the time to make these and help us newbies learn some of the basics! One question though: I've created my watermark in PS per your instructions and saved it to a common location on my hard drive, yet when I attempt to use it as a graphic in Lightroom, it's as if Lightroom doesn't see or recognize the PNG. Any suggestions?
Hello!!! I create my first water mark following stepby step and I did great. Until I try to add the logo to a group of pictures. I don't have the folder add to the signature logo tutorial. I got lost there please help!!!!
Hi Marc, thank you so much for this tutorial. But whatever I do, It doesn't enter the photography to the next line. It will write through my name? What do I have to do? Tried already reload PS. Restart laptop etc etc. please shine your light ☺️
Hi, sounds like you have to change the vertical scale in the Character window. This is also taught here www.theschoolofphotography.com/courses/photoshop-course
@@theschoolofphotography Hi Marc, I looked at the vertical scale you mentioned. That wasn't the solution. I now noticed in the character options in the TYPE LAYER that i must have accidently change the distance/ spacing from auto ( I think that is the default) to 0 😊. Thank you again for your reply 👍
Thanks you are very good with this! creating and sharing this video! I Really Appreciated! This tutorial was extremely helpful I Made One From This Video Came Out Great...
Hi is there any resolution different if i just use text on the photo instead of using layer? Because the saved layer signature sometime too big or too small for certain photo, thanks :)
I liked your video and followed it carefully, however at 7.34 I dont get that dialogue box, I just get a save box, but it saved as a 'psdc' file. After that I was unable to load it onto a photo. Click and drag did not work. Im using a mac and the latest version of Photoshop. Any suggestions? Please
Sorry I forgot to mention, in PS I went to save the image under 'save as' but I couldn't choose PNG? I had to save it as a copy instead? Don't know what that's all about?
Hi thanks for the comments. That's a bit complex to explain here but you can learn this in depth here www.theschoolofphotography.com/courses/lightroom-course-online
Yeah, today I watched the video to the end and I miss the same part. I can't see how to transfer the signatures in LR.... I can't open the videos in this link either...
Nice tutorial, Mark. That said, if you want to be genuine, wouldn't it be more appropriate to sample an actual handwritten signature, digitize it and then use the resultant digital file as the foundation of your signature graphic? Can you make a tutorial that illustrates this sort of approach? Thanks.
It’s quick and easy to do, signing on a white piece of paper and taking a pic into Photoshop and creating the signature as a brush tool. Takes just a couple of minutes👍
Hello Marc. Your video was really helpful. I was wondering if it's fine to use fonts under a "personal use license" as watermarks for photos I aim to print or sell without purchasing the license? Thank you in advance.
hi Iam frustrated because cant instal the fonts in photoshop cs6 program . I dont know how to do it. Can you teach me how to do it please?... After this comment i realized how to do it and works fine. BTW,is there more fonts available for photo signature?. Thanks for your help . Super video!!
Mark, question. I am following step by step. When you type your name then Photography and hit enter your Photography goes directly below your name. When I type my name then photography and hit enter the word photography goes way to the bottom of the screen and I can't for the life of me figure out why? I've tried everything to duplicate yours but I just can't get it to work. Something with spacing maybe? HELP!!! TY

Any suggestions?
Thanks Steve. To use them in Lightroom you need to learn about creating presets and exporting.
When doing the batch process, couldn't find export in Lightroom cc. Found it in Classic though. Great tutorial.
Yes you will only find it in classic. Thanks 😊
Finally, I have created my signature thanks to your video!

Very well explained and easy to follow, thank you
Thanks for the comments, glad it helped 👍
Nice and easy professional tricks
Great tutorial. I really like the clear presentation of steps and actions. One thing that occurs to me is (as just a Joey photographer, no business but interested in retaining my copyright to my images). Including a Signature Logo as you suggest (i.e. Joe Blogs Photography), almost implies a corporate status. Just wondering as a amateur, if saying 'Joe Blogs Photography' has any legal ramifications ? As a non professional, should it not record something along the lines of Joe Blogs © 2001 ? Sincere question and I would appreciate some guidance as to correct and legal approach. Thank you
Hi Richard, this may help answer that www.theschoolofphotography.com/tutorials/copyright-for-photographers 👍
