What you’ll learn

Turn 2D elements into 3D and blend them in

Select a subject, convert it to a rotatable 3D object, then use the Harmonize tool to match its lighting and color to the scene.

Generate floating rocks and magical light

Paint rough guide shapes and use Generative Fill to turn them into floating rocks placed exactly where you want. Then add a glowing light effect around the staff using a similar technique.
