Create a Spotlight

Step 1 Open a new document with a predesigned spotlight or draw one yourself like I did;

Step 2 With the pen-tool, draw a shape like the light I drew in the image below;

Step 3 Rightclick and select “Make Selection”;

Step 4 Grab the Gradient-Tool and select a gradient from white to transparent;

Step 5 Duplicate the layer and go to Filter>Blur>Gaussian Blur of 3 or 4 pixels;

Step 6 Lower the opacity of the blurred layer to 66% and the opacity of the orginal to 33%;

Step 7 And then you are done and you can use your knowledge for the benefit of creating a spotlight!
