Create Stunning Interlocking Shapes and Light Effects Using Photoshop and Illustrator

I am often asked to write tutorials demonstrating how to create some of the designs in my site’s gallery. One of the more popular requests is for a tutorial demonstrating the effects used in Equidistant; which is one of my favorite pieces.

Today, I am finally granting your request. In this 12-minute video tutorial I will demonstrate how to use Illustrator and Photoshop to create stunning, interlocking shapes and light effects. This tutorial uses a combination of Illustrator brushes, Photoshop brushes and filters, as well as some creative use of blending modes to produce a truly remarkable effect.
