• PIC OF THE DAY

6. The Picture above represent the result I got so far. You should get the same thing ... or verry close to this one. Sory for the Quality of the Pictures. Space on the Site is more important. Ok - now that we finished that, we will duplicate what we did so far and create a blur contour of the Txt.

7. Press F3 to display the WorkSpace RollOut, roght click the text operator and select duplicate. This will create a copy of what you did so far. Unlike other programs, Combustion will not rename the new create Text Operator. The new operator will be placed above in the WorkSpace, and as stated before, it will have the same name.

8. As per the layer order, also the new created operator will be placed above the old one. Once you finished the above duplication operation, please rename the old txt from whatever you call it to "Txt Blur". If you did that, select the Txt Blur operator and: right click / add operator / blur/sharpen / gaussian blur. This will add above the Txt Blur another operator - the operator that will control the blur.

9. Double Click the Gaussian Blur operator and press F8 to display his controls. Set the radius to a value that will get you prety much this effect shown bellow. I used a radius of 10 for the Gaussian Blur.

10. Now double click the Branch 'Main Text' so that you see the main text and the glow we add behind it. I think it looks good for now. Anyway, when all the tutorial will be completed, I guarantee a nice result. In the Next part we will add a background and some mask for additional effects.
