Building 3D Lenticular Files

Step by step visual guide to building your photoshop layered files for 3D Lenticular printing. To see the process in slideshow format, click here: http://docs.google.com/Presentation?id=dhj6s49b_10gmn9nfhq

Step 1 Choose a concept that lends itself to 3D

At minimum you need:
1. A background with texture and color, preferably "busy" (no blown out clean looks here)
2. A focal image
3. Foreground elements

You had me until you said "our company". SPAM!

@mrmath, thanks for checking out the article - it's my first post. I must note, however, that if the content is helpful and compelling I'd hardly call it spam. If we speak in really broad, general strokes for the moniker "spam", 99% of what is on the interne fits the bill. And I do say "our company" because we are one of very, very few who go into this level of detail on 3d mastering. If you read to the end, there is a section for folks who aren't interested in commercial products and would rather do their own... please check it out.

You're new here, so you don't know our definition of the word SPAM. If you are making money from your instructable (which, to be honest, you hope to do), it's SPAM.
