: Help me recreate this text effect I'm trying to learn and practice Photoshop in my free time. Been trying to recreate the text effect used on Gizmodo Brazil's logo but can't quite get it right.

There is also great resource about Photoshop actions and retouching: foto-guru.com/photoshop-actions-complete-guide-2017/

If you're referring to the reflection, the best way is probably to:


Create a smart object from your logo/image
Duplicate the smart object
Flip the duplicate vertically and move it down to line up the edges
Create a layer mask for the duplicate (show all)
Select the layer mask, then use the gradient tool (with a black-to-white gradient) to create the fade-out effect.


Or, you could just use a ready-made Photoshop action. Here's one: www.panosfx.com/free-photoshop-actions/reflections
