Making tutorials for designs in general tends to be difficult enough for people not to make them too often. It helps, though, to at least know someplace where the best ones of a certain category are all on one page.

In an effort to make a collection of tutorials just like that, here’s a roundup of tutorial videos and posts that teach you how to do flyer design in Photoshop, curated among many others by yours truly. This collection leans more towards the nightclub flyer variety, but once you get some of these techniques down pat, you can use them for making other kinds of fliers too!

Club and Party Flyer Design with Photoshop in Under 1 Minute – Photo47

The design of this flier took around 1 hour and 15 minutes, but they condensed the clip down to around a minute. The design is for a Moscato March event for the Twisted Tilt club in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Sam Heights: DJ Flyer Design (Photoshop)

Though Sam Heights made an e-flyer in this tutorial, there are still a few things to learn here. The client wanted something dancey, but without too much going on; hence, the feel of this event flyer is more modern than bright-lights clubby. The whole process is fast-forwarded to the tune of L.A.T.A.’s “Stereo Bumpin'”.

Flyer Design (Tito Swing)

Another fast speed flyer tutorial. The design is a little hip-hop-bossa island-y. Okay, beginners probably won’t get much more than an amused realization at how the design process can get disorganized sometimes, but you gotta admit, it’s pretty entertaining!

Soundwave Flyer Design

This is a 3-part tutorial that involves creating an “electric soundwave effect” as well as various layer effects. This video is only part 1; if you like it, check out part 2 and part 3.

Make a Cut and Paste Rock Club Flyer

Sometimes we need a break from our Web 2.0 design aesthetic, so this flyer tutorial from PSDTuts+ gives you just that. Remember the times when we’d cut out things from magazines and make collages that ranged from the kooky to the downright creepy? Now you can do that digitally with this post!

That’s it for now. I doubt I’ll be able to update this collection for new tutorials published after this post, but you’re more than welcome to suggest them for other readers in the comments. If you actually have Photoshop open in the other window and are taking this compilation as a guide, here’s a bonus – get some free flyer templates over at UPrinting too!
