Make your text pop off the page! You’ve probably seen many designs with a variety of different 3D text effects—sports graphics or otherwise—and there are several different techniques and programs available to achieve similar results. In this video, we’ll go over FIVE different 3-dimensional text effects you can create using a combination of Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator!
The first three effects/styles can be done in Photoshop, and the last two effects stem from Illustrator. Even if you’re not super comfortable in Illustrator, you by no means have to be an Illustrator expert to play with the program’s 3D settings.

03:46 Photoshop Bevel
06:56 Illustrator Extrusion
12:24 Illustrator Inflation
Some of these can be combined to enhance the overall 3D feel, and you should always think about adding textures and images to create a more distinct feel for your typography.
