How To Place Text Behind Anything In Photoshop

In this Photoshop tutorial, you will learn how to place text behind anything in Photoshop.
This text effect is often used in magazines and movie posters. This tutorial shows you how to easily recreate the text behind a person effect using non-destructive techniques.
This will be a straightforward tutorial. You will learn about selections, Layer Masks, and Text Layers!
There will be a lot of tips and tricks sprinkled throughout the tutorial that will also be useful on any project.
I'll be using Photoshop CC but you can also follow along with Photoshop CS6.

    I've been watching a lot of "how to" videos for editing. The one thing that stands out from the others, with your video, is how you use the red box to indicate just where we are suppose to move the cursor and click. Thanks for making some really great tutorials.

    This is by far the best photoshop tutorial I have watched. I love how thorough you are. For new photoshop users like me, it can be challenging to follow along when people don't show all the steps and assume the viewer knows things that they may not. Also, I love how to-the-point your video is and how you show both the long way and the shortcuts. Great video!

    Great tutorial Jesus - particularly like your clear, easy, relaxed style and the clarity of where you are going at any given point within Photoshop - the red box thing is a great idea! Many Thanks.

    Masking the Text "group" is something new I will have to try. I've always, for this kind of result, made a layer on the bottom with a copy of the masked out subject on the top layer, and placed my text layer between the 2. Same results, but your way allows for 1 less layer required reducing the overall file size. Good stuff, will definitely try it.
