How To Create a Tiny Planet Effect

In today’s Photoshop video tutorial we’re going to have some fun creating a tiny planet effect, which is a classic Photoshop tutorial subject, but this kind of effect has come back into the limelight with new 3D cameras now being used to produce video footage in the same style. I’ll be covering the process of making the effect with a static image by manipulating it in Photoshop, but as an extra touch, I’ll show you how to superimpose an additional picture of a person to simulate the appearance of those 3D video, as captured by the likes of the GoPro Fusion.
