To apply the tilt shift effect check the high quality box on the top and apply and you have a great miniature effect image. You can add a little bit of noise to your image and Nace thinks that adding just a tiny bit of noise might actually “sell” this effect better. Typically the more subtle the effect the better and more realistic it looks. Now you can play with the two center lines which mark the area in focus and the two distant lines which mark the area which is out of focus (you can make a sharp or more gradual transition here). Now go to blur gallery and tilt shift effect. ![]() Start by converting your background layer to a normal layer and convert the image to a smart object (this way you can always come back and change the tilt shift effect). Using a photography from above might also be a good idea for creating convincing miniature effect images. Going back to Photoshop, creating a miniature effect is not difficult but in order to make a good miniature effect you should use a photo which has a lot of details in the center but also details in the center top and bottom. However you can use a similar type effect in software in Photoshop and create a miniature effect (actual tilt shift lenses are used for architecture or product shots and you can mimic their effect to an extent although they do posses some optical properties that are more difficult or even impossible to imitate such as changing the focus plane of the lens and keeping more of your subject in focus at higher f-stops). ![]() ![]() Using miniature effect can be done in camera by using a tilt shift lens (some cameras have this as a “software” effect as well). On this video tutorial, Aaron Nace from Phlearn talks demonstrates how to create a miniature effect in Photoshop.
