*****PLEASE READ!!!*****: At 2:39 in the video, I neglected to mention to merge Layer 3 and Layer 2 (press Ctrl or Cmd + E). Also, at 4:35, after you press "B" to open your Brush Tool, press "Q", to make the brush into a Quick Mask brush. Sorry about that!

You are very welcome!
Nice and easy. Thank you!
You're welcome!
Awesome marty
Excellent sir super
Good Marty 👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks! 😃
Superb 🔥🔥
Thanks 🤗
I tried to follow this tutorial step by step several times and it doesn't work I get nothing close to this and when I lasso I don't even get the lighting bit I just get smudges
go to Image / Mode and set it to 16 or 32bits and it will work!
woahhhhhh!
Excellent !
Many thanks!
WHOH!
Thanks again 😘
You're welcome 😊
the best tutorials on the internet by far

⚡⚡Awesome Lightning ⚡⚡👍

Love all your tutorials! They are awesome and this one is no exception :-) You make it all seem so easy! Just a heads up, I think there is an added step at 1:58 or a missing one at at 2:52 because the extra layer is missing. At 4:41 is there another step before brushing? or will it automatically brush a quick mask? Sorry, do not have my PS with me at the moment to try it. Anyway, Marty thank you so much for all the Tutorials!
Thank you for the "heads up". Yes, at 2:39, I neglected to mention to merge Layer 3 and Layer 2, however, at 4:41, there is no extra step - once you click the Layer Mask icon at 5:11, a layer mask of the selection will automatically be placed next to the active layer (Layer 1). 👌
Cool, thanks, I thought the merge is what happened, but I wasn't certain! And Ok about the masking, I am looking forward to giving this a try as soon as I get to my computer :-) Thank you!
Thank you for asking exactly the questions I was going to ask years ago, good work.
Hello Marty, today is my friend Jordans birthday and we are fans of your youtube channel. It would mean a lot if you wished her a happy birthday! Thank you!
HaPpY BirThDaY, JoRdAn!!! 🍰🎈💙
I didnt know you could use clouds like that
Hawo to glow anything in Photoshop Without losing the details of the picture.
nice
Thanks!
my renders never look too good. they are always very dense and concentrated so its hard to pick out one that would make good lightning.
Thanks for this. Didn't quite work on Photoshop 2021. At the point of making the lasso and pressing control J, it doesn't bring over the lightning in the new layer. Tried to follow exactly several times. Perhaps I am missing something.
And it seems I have an extra layer after I lasso the lightning? You are showing 3 and I have 4. The lasso layer is not showing the lightning. It seems to show the brushed areas. I hope that helps.
@@stwoods25 in one part of the video he tells you to make another 4th layer don't create that layer
I found that if I 'copy merged' that selection, make a new empty layer and 'paste' the selection to that layer then change the layer blend mode to 'screen', I get the lightning. Photoshop 2023
Lovin your voice!!!
I saw a few people say something felt missing. Rewatch a few parts and had trouble completing it correctly. Wasn't able to brush over a few of my layers. Or at one instance you had one deleted and I still had one active. Not sure but really wanted to learn this technique
Sorry about that. I did another lightning tutorial 4 years ago. ua-cam.com/video/1kZrYeSL21g/v-deo.html
FYI: Boris FX Optics has a great lightning filter. ua-cam.com/video/o4v06dKV03o/v-deo.html
@@BLTV_Photoshop Thanks! will be checking that out today!
Is there anyway I could have you do that to a picture of mine?? I don’t have photoshop software._.

a request of tutorial on superman heat vision
It doesn;t quick select when i hit Q
@blue lightning TV Photoshop: At @3:06 when you change blend mode to screen, my lightning has a white glow around it...not sure how to make it look like a clear lightning bolt like you get. Please help
Are you saying that the shape of the cut-out in the lightning layer has a glow around it? The bolt, itself, should have a glow around it.
@@BLTV_Photoshop yes but the glow is huge as if the size is high on an outer glow...looks like a blob.
👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👍
Unfortunately I can't get the lightning to show up on top of layer? This is after deleting the layer below after lasso
What is the time code (minute: second)? Thanks.
whenever I delete the layer after laso-ing the lighting I want, something goes wrong. the laso-d layer goes back to the entire lighting scene before I painted over everything... any idea what I did wrong?
At what point in the video (minute: second)? Please refer to this video in your reply. Thanks.
@@BLTV_Photoshop at 2:57, when I delete the layer below it, the layer on top that is isolated and lassoed reverts back to the entire "lightning image" without any paint applied or lasso.
Same thing happened with me
When using the brush on the cloud i cannot turn it into a layer by pressing Q it does not do anything for me.
Pressing "Q", converts a selection into a quick mask and vice-versa.
how did you make yours move?
I edited together individual jpgs in my screen-recording application, Camtasia.
lol im too early
when i go to render the cloud option isint there
i cant find it either
What version are you on?
Ctrl or cmd J ? But it's not working to cut and copy to its own layer 😩
Something in your document is preventing it. It could be due to any number of reasons. One would have to inspect it to determine the source of the problem.
is this adobe lightroom or Adobe Photoshop?
Photoshop
I can't enter a value of .24 like you did at 1:47
You should be able to enter it for the midtones. as I did. 🤔
Pres Ctrl or cmd J to cut and copy it onto its own layer .it's not working
Ctrl + J (Windows) and Cmd + J (Mac) have always been standard Photoshop default methods to copy layers onto their own layer.
CTRL J wont cut and copy it
There are a few reasons this could be happening. Unfortunately, one would have to inspect your document to determine which one it is.
