Realistic Packaging Mockup in Photoshop CC | EASY
In this Photoshop CC 2020 Tutorial for beginners, I show you how to add your graphic design to any surface inside a photo while maintaining the right perspective (vanishing point filter). Then, to make it look more realistic I teach you how to use blend modes, opacity and blend if to adopt the texture, highlights and shadows from the underlying layer (your main photo). And finally, to finish it off we make sure to apply a depth map (gradient tool on a mask) and the lens blur filter to help match the depth of field look or blur of the original image. This is a simple way to create a packaging design mock-up in Photoshop to display your design work in a more realistic way or how it might look when it's actually printed.
