QueenBae Posted September 2, 2023 Posted September 2, 2023 Good evening, I have been trying to recreate this look in Affinity but with no success. It was originally created using Canva. I would greatly appreciate any assistance 🥰 Quote
v_kyr Posted September 2, 2023 Posted September 2, 2023 Which Affinity app? - There are several different ways to do such FlipText effects, though it's overall easier to do with ADe v2 and vector based distortions of the text here. I've once did things like that the tedious (boring) manual way in APh v1 ... design_fliptext.afphoto QueenBae 1 Quote ☛ Affinity Designer 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Photo 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Publisher 1.10.8 ◆ OSX El Capitan ☛ Affinity V2.3 apps ◆ MacOS Sonoma 14.2 ◆ iPad OS 17.2

Generally look after some Flip Text Effect tutorials for PS or Illustrator etc. there are a bunch of such on Youtube, you can apply the same things they do show there with the Adobe products, then instead with the Affinity apps. flip text tutorial How To Make Flip Text Effect in Adobe Illustrator | Adobe Illustrator Tutorial Flip Text Effect in Adobe Illustrator ... https://www.photoshop-tutorial.com/post/flip-text-effect ... and so on, too much to list them all ...  Page-Flip-Tex-Effect.afdesign  Quote ☛ Affinity Designer 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Photo 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Publisher 1.10.8 ◆ OSX El Capitan ☛ Affinity V2.3 apps ◆ MacOS Sonoma 14.2 ◆ iPad OS 17.2

NotMyFault Posted September 3, 2023 Posted September 3, 2023 Can you explain with what step you struggle? creating a text with mesh warp (wide top, narrow bottom) flipping / mirroring from top to bottom creating text in different angles creating the color gradient You can inspect the layer FX by just clicking on them, they just have a color gradient. Quote Mac mini M1 A2348 | MBP M3 Windows 11 - AMD Ryzen 9 5900x - 32 GB RAM - Nvidia GTX 1080 LG34WK950U-W, calibrated to DCI-P3 with LG Calibration Studio / Spider 5 | Dell 27“ 4K iPad Air Gen 5 (2022) A2589 Special interest into procedural texture filter, edit alpha channel, RGB/16 and RGB/32 color formats, stacking, finding root causes for misbehaving files, finding creative solutions for unsolvable tasks, finding bugs in Apps.

That should give you an idea here how texts are sized, positional arranged and colored etc. Quote ☛ Affinity Designer 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Photo 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Publisher 1.10.8 ◆ OSX El Capitan ☛ Affinity V2.3 apps ◆ MacOS Sonoma 14.2 ◆ iPad OS 17.2
thomaso Posted September 3, 2023 Posted September 3, 2023 13 hours ago, QueenBae said: what effects you used FWIW, you can create this appearance entirely without any "effect" (in terms of "FX"). My sample above is done in V1 (without the new warp tool in AD 2) but uses the APh perspective tool and thus results in rasterized layers.
