Make a new sheet with the dimensions 500x700! It's the size I normally choose so choose whatever's comfortable with you <3

Place your characters in places that look cool lol, in this case it's Katniss(Jennifer Lawrence) from 'The Hunger Games' (woohoo!)

Place a fire picture (you can just find one on google hahaha)  beneath all of the layers (except for the background XD)

Click on that triangle thingy with the circle in it. It's called Vibrance (I think.. lmao)
Saturation should be: -100
Vibrance: +100
 

Click on the rectangle thingy with the different shades thingy on it. It's called Colour look up!
Choose 'flimstock_50.3dl'
 

Click the sun thingy, it's used to adjust the brightness and contrast <
Brightness: 0
Contrasy: 46

Font: Meiryo
Colour: 4d0808
Size: 60
Language is in Japanese ;) You might want to use a different font than meiryo if you're gonna do the test in English or smthng O.O
 

SELECT YOUR TEXT LAYER THEN, CLICK THE 'FX' BUTTOOOON~
 

Choose 'drop shadow' as we want the text to also stand ou a bit on the poster ;3
 

These settings are already default so just click ok!!

HIT THAT FX BUTTON AGAINNNN! Then, this time choose outer glow. SO THAT THE TEXT CAN STAND OUT. LIKE DIS.

Select your text layer. Go to filters>>Disorts>>ripple

If you have not rasterized your text layer yet, this will come up. Don't worry, just hit okay. To rasterize a layer you must right click on your layer then just click 'rasterize type'

 

'OK' button!
