So I've been seeing a lot of people trying this broken glass effect with text on youtube. So I grabbed the image of broken glass from the description and attempted it for myself. I put this image together in about 10 mins. Enjoy and please.. Let me know how I did guys. :thumbsup:

Hey Pepper. You have done a great job with this effect. It will stand just fine on it's own as it is.

It doesn't read 'broken glass text' as it does 'stone text breaks glass'.



My only critique would be that you should move the subject (text) a bit closer to the foreground, move it off center or cant it slightly, which would lessen the background. Centered, the effect looks controlled and far less dramatic and chaotic.

The BG is a bit uniform. The text breaking through a glass window........

......like this......

.........could really assist in the illusion.

BUT.........as I said, I think what you have done is a great job and I only offer my opinions as suggestions for similar future projects.
:thumbsup:

Hi Pepper maybe collapse or make some letters appear like they are falling over forwards or backwards just to add more effect.
